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.

Stories from Nordic founders, sponsors who value transparency, collaborators experimenting with AI, and readers curious about tech and skeptical of hype.
