You can deeply study anything. Pick one thing you love, a song, a painting, a mountain, and dive deep. There is magic in diving deep.

Release Before Ready: 12-hour hackathon. 100+ builders. No winners, no prizes, no judges. Just the love of shipping. A virtual vet for dogs. Agentic content creation. Automated contract execution. And a lot more. Best case: you build something awesome. Worst case: you learn a lot.

@DeepInfra's $107M Series B underscores a key shift in AI: inference is becoming the system constraint. As AI moves from training to production-scale deployment, high-throughput, reliable inference infrastructure is becoming foundational to real-world adoption—from agent-driven workflows to always-on enterprise applications. With this funding, DeepInfra is scaling its inference cloud to meet global demand, supporting 4T+ tokens processed weekly across 150+ open-source models and an expanding footprint of 8 U.S. data centers. We’re proud to co-lead this round alongside @gharik and an incredible group of investors supporting DeepInfra’s next phase of growth. Congratulations to @nikolaborisof, Yessenzhar Kanapin, Georgios Papoutsis and the whole DeepInfra team on this milestone. Full story: lnkd.in/g6vRFyEH And…they’re hiring!

@dfect Their first product intended to clean the pictures from your phone. Crazy pivot! I met them and heard the pitch like 7 years ago.

Mexican CEO. Serbian CTO. Russian co-founder. Incode was global from day one, now worth ~$3B. Their first product was unique CV tech that wouldn't monetize. So they pivoted the same hard tech into KYC. Big design partner + pandemic uplift = category leader. Day 12 of SVT.
