Flare: The Ultimate App for Groups

Experience
Branding
Background
Flare is the one-stop-shop for group communication, events, and management. It's a product that Merl has collaborated with founders Jack Chen and Daniel Breyer since 2017.
Project Overview
CEO and founder, Jack Chen, needed a designer that could take his group communication concept from 0 to 1. Merl Studio provided the brand and product design experience needed to boostrap Flare and grow its userbase.
You can learn more about Flare's features in the tutorial video I made below.
Following Merl's UX improvements, Flare was able to secure 3M dollars in seed funding from Floodgate, Bessemer, and Goodwater following our success in rapidly growing the user base from 2022 to 2023.

During Merl's tenure daily active users scaled from 20K to 150K. To this day, Flare is used by over 350K people monthly in over 3,000 student groups, clubs, fraternities, and sororities at over 300 colleges all over the United States.
