@rabois @the_P_God It was much more @garrytan via a combination of YC and local political initiatives that saved SF. OpenAI was very impactful, but alone would not have led this turn around

Openclaw is just the Autogpt of 2026, and three months from now just like autogpt no one will be talking about it

I’m excited to introduce Proximal with @MatternJustus and @navidkpr We believe that many companies work on training data, but almost all of them are approaching it the wrong way. Historically, the biggest capability jumps came from engineers inventing scalable ways to collect domain specific data, and not from scaling up manual labor. Our core belief at Proximal is that the data needed for progress will not come from a recruiting firm or a talent marketplace, but a research and engineering organization that treats data as a problem which deserves the same level of rigor as work on training algorithms and model architectures. We think that this is the most impactful work towards agents that can autonomously solve complex technical problems, and intend to share our research and progress in the open. Since starting last year, we've grown incredibly fast and have made great technical progress. We are backed by top investors and angels from OpenAI, Anthropic, Thinking Machines, xAI, Meta Superintelligence, Google Deepmind, Cursor and Cognition. We're expanding our team and hiring researchers & engineers in San Francisco! If you want to work on data and RL for long-horizon coding agents, reach out!

Today, we are announcing Proximal. Proximal is a research lab for data. Our core belief is that data which is complex enough to teach today’s frontier models is not bottlenecked by domain experts, but by great ideas and excellent software. We are excited about a world in which coding agents can autonomously run for multiple weeks, solve the hardest technical problems and discover novel ideas that advance progress in various domains of science and engineering. We believe that we are not far from this future, but that the biggest bottleneck preventing us from achieving it is training data. Many companies work on data, but most of them are approaching it the wrong way. Historical capability breakthroughs are the result of creative engineers discovering scalable data collection methods, not thousands of contractors manually writing task demonstrations. Inevitably, the potential impact of human data will become smaller and smaller as model capabilities increase: agents are already outperforming most humans in many domains - the number of experts that are capable of judging model outputs shrinks with every new model release. Proximal is a new data company. We are not a recruiting firm or a talent marketplace, but a research and engineering organization that treats data as a problem which deserves the same level of rigor as work on training algorithms and model architectures. We think that this is the most impactful work towards agents that can autonomously solve complex technical problems, and intend to share our research and progress in the open.

There were actually a number of internal evals we have at @ExtendHQ that specifically gpt4-0314-32k outperformed on against all subsequent gpt4 models, and claude 3x models, until gpt-4o-0806 and Opus 3.7 Truly a special model. Many did not realize how far you could push it on complex extraction tasks. I’ll also never forget my fist few times interacting with Bing Creative Mode, which to my understanding, was built on top of gpt4-0314

One takeaway that stuck with me from my session with Eli Badgio at @ExtendHQ: Document processing isn’t a prompt problem, it’s a pipeline problem. Getting to 99%+ accuracy means optimizing every step end to end, not just writing better prompts. Notes from the session below.

If you are a great engineer and have experience with AI document processing and OCR, please send me a DM - especially if you are in or are willing to relocate to Miami.

The Document Automation Trap: Why Your AI Pipeline Will Fail w/ @ExtendHQ - Understand your data and existing manual processes before automation. Tacit knowledge hidden within organizations is often the key to successful implementation. - Invest early in task-specific evaluation frameworks rather than relying on generic benchmarks, as domain-specific accuracy matters more than general model performance. - Start with partial automation rather than attempting 100% automation from the beginning. Human-in-the-loop systems allow for gradual improvement and change management. - Rethink processes from scratch with automation in mind instead of trying to replicate existing manual workflows, which often leads to suboptimal results. - Break complex document processing into multiple specialized steps (parsing, classification, extraction) to achieve higher accuracy and better handle edge cases.
