In plain words
Flare is a voice-first social app designed for Gen Z that prioritizes direct communication over traditional social metrics. Users share photos, videos, or moods with an AI assistant called an Orb, which helps create memories and strengthens friendships through personalized context. The app eliminates likes, followers, comments, and public feeds, focusing instead on private interactions between friends and their AI companion that responds conversationally. Rather than encouraging scrolling, Flare emphasizes listening and meaningful connection.

Flare is an AI-native voice-first social app for Gen Z. Capture real moments: photos, short videos, or moods, and your AI Orb uses agents to turn them into memory, identity, and friendship context. No likes, followers, comments, or stranger feed. Just you, your friends, and an Orb that talks back about what matters. A social app you listen to instead of scrolling.

Social Networking Developer Joan Mateo Duarte Language EN + 1 More Size 96.3 MB iPhone, iPad The social network you talk to. Your Orb knows your friendships. Open Flare and your Orb is already talking. What your friends have been up to, what changed in your week, who to reach out to today. Then it asks what you're up to. Your answer is your check-in. No posting, no staging, no camera roll. Show it a photo or a video mid-conversation and it becomes part of the story. Can't talk out loud? Type instead. Same conversation, same Orb. Every conversation ends pointing at a friend. And tomorrow your Orb knows more, talks less, and hits harder. No likes. No followers. No feed of strangers. Just you,…from apps.apple.com

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
