Contrails AI was founded by AI researcher Digvijay Singh and trust and safety expert Amitabh Kumar. The startup focuses on the rising challenge of “AI slop”—the flood of synthetic, manipulated, and malicious content online.

This content surge threatens to turn the internet into a space filled with counterfeit or harmful material.

Its proprietary Forensics & Manipulation Detection AI offers real-time analysis across multiple media types: video, image, audio, and text. This allows review teams to detect misinformation, deepfakes, brand impersonation, and fraud quickly and effectively.
