Algora helped ComfyUI hire Matt Miller as founding backend engineer.
“To build AI for Hollywood, we need engineers with experience in creative media exactly like Matt. We're super happy to work together.”
In 7 months, Matt led the development and release of Comfy MCP, bringing natural-language agent control to Comfy. This enabled both technical power users and non-technical creative teams to access the ComfyUI ecosystem.
With Matt's work, LLM agents can now execute multi-modal generations (image, video, audio, 3D), programmatically assemble node graphs, adjust parameters, and build custom nodes dynamically using natural language, with a unified runtime across both local and cloud.
Creative and engineering teams across VFX & Animation, Advertising & Creative Studios, Gaming, and eCommerce & Fashion can now use ComfyUI as their production engine for video generation, background removal and VFX, without manually building complex node connections every time, while automating all their repetitive asset generation pipelines.
Today ComfyUI has 4M users, including Netflix, Amazon, Ubisoft, EA, Tencent and OpenAI.
Congrats ComfyUI on your Series B at a $500M valuation.
