Co-Founder & CEO at Flare โ building AI-native voice social.
Every defining social network introduced a new media format. Facebook was text. Instagram was photos. TikTok made short video the standard. In an AI-native world, bidirectional voice is next. That's what I'm building.
Flare โ an AI-native voice social app.
Agents observe your patterns and your friends' patterns, then brief you proactively in voice using bidirectional AI Voice. No feed to scroll. No likes. No performance.
