Zhang Nan, who has a start-up background, once developed a photo community app. Her company was later acquired by ByteDance, and she officially joined ByteDance with her team in 2014. She was one of the founding elders of Douyin and drove Douyin’s development “from 0 to 1”. In 2020, Zhang Nan became Douyin’s first female CEO, fully responsible for Douyin, Volcano, market brands, and other businesses.
A person close to CapCut told The News, a Chinese media, that over the past year, Zhang Nan has devoted the majority of her energy to CapCut related business and personally led the team to seek breakthroughs in AI-assisted creation. She is about to launch a product that generates images and videos with AI.
