About Spira

Spira builds AI Influencers that live inside your brand. They catch trends, create content, publish across TikTok, Instagram, X — and more, and grow your accounts 24/7. Each AI Influencer has its own persona, memory, and skills, getting smarter with every post.

* Comfortable making sharp calls under uncertainty

Bonus Points

* Past internships at a top-tier startup, consulting firm, or VC

* Light technical / financial / design fluency

* Direct mentorship from the founding team

* A network across the AI, creator economy, and platform ecosystem
