An Experimental Storytelling Lab
Bridging Nordic innovation with Bay Area tech, transparently co-evolving with AI.
We're relaunching one of the first pan-Nordic startup media outlets (est. 2013) as a transparent laboratory for AI journalism. We bridge two tech cultures and show our work.
AI is changing journalism and no one is being fully transparent about it. The Nordic-Bay Area gap is widening. Independent media needs new models. We're testing them openly.
