congrats to former @akatoshouse resident @chloe_h_nguyen for winning a @united_builder grant… she is always full of ideas and energy!!

Matt presented Trope at the Akatos Symposium Showcase!

your side project has been "almost done" for 7 months because: - you're building alone - you don't have a deadline - no one is waiting to see it - you can move it to next weekend, again comment "build" and we'll give you a push

and that's why we're running a builder bootcamp.

Baiwu presented this at the @akatoshouse Symposium showcase, did you catch it!?

do you feel smart, but stuck? if your startup or passion project just isn't moving, @akatoshouse is hosting a builder bootcamp to get you going again. May 11. 2 weeks, every other day, nights and weekends. Sign up below 👇

@elzpl let’s goo

Every week there's a new tool that's going to make building easier. 
And every week you save it, try it, get excited… and ship nothing.
 There will never be a perfect moment, a perfect stack, a perfect time to start.
 So start now!

We’re starting a builder bootcamp. Many people call themselves founders, but end up flounders: much talk, but no output, no walk. So we’re gathering builders of all kinds - engineers, designers, creators, and more - to turn their thoughts into real, tangible output across two weeks of deep, hard work. You can be in school or have a job. But every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday evening, you will have one minute to update fellow builders with: •⁠ ⁠what you're working on •⁠ ⁠⁠what did you get done •⁠ ⁠⁠what’s your goal by the next update Too many great ideas are just languishing around. We want to get people going, sooner, faster. Hosted by @akatoshouse and @jrodgers at @TheBarnWaterloo in Waterloo, Canada, the world’s greatest city of makers. If you’re interested, reply “bootcamp” and we’ll send you an application link.

Huge thank you to everyone who came to the @akatoshouse Symposium Showcase! We welcomed 110+ founders/builders from all over. Shoutout to our 20 demoers who shipped like crazy, the 30+ VCs who joined us, and our amazing volunteer team. The energy was unreal. We saw a non‑invasive headset aimed at human super-intelligence, an evaluation framework for neural organoids, and an engine that turns real‑world data into robot‑training simulations - all built out of Waterloo. Special thanks to @Communitech for hosting us in their space, and our incredible sponsors: @convex, Forge and @interfaze_ai. If you missed it (or want to relive it), you can watch all the demos here 👇
