ATLANTA, GA - May 9, 2025 - Modari, a startup developing real-time AI safety tools for online communities, has officially launched its first product: ModariBot, an AI-powered moderation bot for Discord. In just 48 hours, ModariBot has expanded to over five servers, protecting more than 15,000 users and automatically flagging 1,200+ harmful messages, including hundreds of predatory users.

Founded by Emory University students Lira Liu and Felipe Cardozo Sr., Modari AI is addressing the growing demand for proactive, intelligent moderation on digital platforms. ModariBot acts as a 24/7 AI safety layer, scanning conversations in real time and removing abusive, manipulative, and predatory messages before human moderators even see them.
The bot’s rapid adoption was driven by Liu, who built the initial version, launched it in the Modari community Discord, and led the full go-to-market strategy. Through targeted outreach, viral campaigns, and relentless community engagement, Liu secured ModariBot’s first 15,000 users in under two days.

“It’s terrifying just how unsafe the internet can be. I want people to be able to use it without fear of being harmed,” said Liu. “Our early growth proves how urgently these tools are needed, and how underserved this space really is.”
While Liu leads product growth and marketing, Cardozo Sr. heads development of Modari’s AI detection systems. His work focuses on training models that go beyond basic keyword filtering, identifying the subtle language patterns common in grooming, coercion, and emotional manipulation—behavior traditional moderation tools often miss.

Since launch, ModariBot has been deployed in a growing number of Discord communities ranging from casual friend groups to large public servers. The company plans to expand beyond Discord and build a broader suite of AI-powered safety tools for online communities, education platforms, and social networks.
