Clark Gao is Co-Founder and CPO at CREAO AI, a Cupertino-based agentic AI platform that turns natural language conversations into autonomous, self-running Agent Apps.

Clark previously built and led data teams at LinkedIn and Tencent, gaining deep expertise in enterprise data infrastructure and go-to-market strategy across global tech organizations.

Clark champions the idea that the true frontier of AI is not smarter models but better human-agent collaboration, believing the real challenge is how humans and agents actually work together.

At CREAO AI, Clark leads GTM strategy and has helped the company raise $25M across three rounds in under a year, backed by Prosperity7 Ventures, the $3B venturing fund of Aramco Ventures.

Since launching in September 2025, CREAO AI has grown to 200,000 users through entirely organic growth, with its super-agent platform enabling a 20-person team to operate at the capacity of a much larger organization.
