At just 21 years old, Neo is already a veteran of the creator economy. He joined MrBeast’s team at 18, where he played a pivotal role in crafting the short-form content strategy that helped propel the channel to global dominance. Now, drawing on his experience at the forefront of viral content, Neo and his co-founders—Shivam Pankaj Kumar, a former engineer at Microsoft and Palantir, and content creator Harry Jones—have built Palo, a personalized toolkit that leverages artificial intelligence to empower creators across platforms like YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook.

“Large-language AI models are a perfect thing not for replacing the creator, but for analyzing every little thing,” Neo explained. “We present these patterns in a simple way so that you can make better decisions, make tiny tweaks, get way more views.”
