Netflix acquired InterPositive, an AI filmmaking tools startup founded by Ben Affleck, in March 2026 to bring AI-powered post-production capabilities — including automated color grading, relighting, and continuity fixes — in-house for use by its creative partners.

On March 5, 2026, Netflix announced the acquisition of the 16-person InterPositive team for an undisclosed sum (reported by Bloomberg as potentially up to $600 million depending on performance targets). InterPositive's system takes a production's daily raw footage ('dailies'), builds a custom AI model from that footage, and then applies that model in post-production to tasks such as color grading, relighting shots, and fixing visual continuity errors — frame by frame. Netflix stated it would offer the technology exclusively to its internal creative partners and not sell it commercially. Ben Affleck will serve as a senior adviser to Netflix.
