Flare

Pre Seed · AI & Machine Learning · Copenhagen, Denmark · Founded 2026 · 5–8 employees

Flare is a Copenhagen-based startup building trust infrastructure for knowledge validation in the AI era, using transparent structured systems and collective intelligence to evaluate claims and highlight what is actually supported. Founded in 2026 by Nicolai Frost Kolborg Jacobsen and Victor Birk — veterans of Corti, Google, Unity, IBM, and Amazon — the company addresses the growing gap between AI-generated content and humanity's ability to verify it at scale. In April 2026, Flare raised a €3.6M pre-seed round led by 20VC and 20Growth, with participation from ByFounders and angels from Stack Overflow, GitHub, Reddit, Meta, Kahoot, HubSpot, and Encord. The platform combines automated claim detection with community-driven human validation, creating a feedback loop that also generates high-quality verified training data for AI systems — positioning Flare at the intersection of information integrity and AI data infrastructure.
