Brahma, a subsidiary of Prime Focus Ltd., has announced the acquisition of Metaphysic, a leader in AI content creation technology. The merger is set to accelerate Brahma’s development of AI-powered products for enterprises, IP rights holders, and content creators worldwide.
Following this transaction, Brahma is valued at $1.43 billion. In a strategic move, United Al Saqer Group (UASG) and the DNEG Group will invest an additional $25 million into Brahma. Metaphysic’s key investors, including Liberty Global, S32, Rakuten Capital, TO Ventures, and 8VC, will also become stakeholders.
Brahma aims to revolutionize AI-driven content workflows across video, image, and audio by integrating cutting-edge AI, data, and content management technologies. This move strengthens Brahma’s capabilities by merging DNEG’s award-winning innovation, Ziva’s advanced digital human simulation, and Metaphysic’s AI-powered neural performance tools. Brahma will also leverage CLEARⓇ, a purpose-built AI platform with a global client base, developed over eight years of extensive R&D.
The acquisition follows Ziva’s recognition with a 2025 SciTech Award by the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences and Metaphysic’s Emerging Technology Award at the Visual Effects Society Awards.
