Four months since launch. Hardest but also the most rewarding months I have ever had.
Good to speak with TechCrunch about the journey so far. Back to building.

@oracles @a16z @StiltaIP @MarqVision different category. MarqVision is trademark and copyright enforcement - taking down counterfeits and pirated content on marketplaces. we’re patent litigation - invalidity, infringement, claim charts. different legal domains, different buyers, different work.

We just raised $10.5M led by @a16z.
Patents protect the world's most important innovations, but the analysis to actually use them has always been too slow and too expensive. @StiltaIP changes that, and is already used on the highest-stakes IP work at multiple AmLaw 100 firms and Fortune 500 IP teams.
If you want to help define how the next generation of innovation gets protected, we're hiring: ycombinator.com/companies/stil…

Excited to have backed @StiltaIP!

@zolotokrylin @a16z @StiltaIP Ty! great question - we’ve focused a lot on traceability and trust. every finding ties back to an excerpt the attorney can verify. traceability of what was searched by the agents, what was reasoned over, and which source each conclusion came from.
English
@zolotokrylin @OliverBrandtvig @a16z @StiltaIP 100% believe in the shift, let’s see how far it goes. IP mgmt work has been reactive by default because proactive analysis was too slow / too expensive, but context-based proactive workflows is within reach.

So thrilled to partner with @oskarblock & @StiltaIP - the leading platform for IP law, helping protect and monetize the world's knowledge.
In a few short months, they are already working with Fortune Global 500 companies & AmLaw 100.

the emotional drop at the end of YC w26 has hit me hard -- so inspired and proud of all the founders
thank you all for letting me have a front row seat to your greatness
and thank you for putting up with me lovingly yell at you sometimes (ie process my own startup demons through you)

@gustaf Grateful to be building with such great founders and partners 🙏🏻

Today we had the best group office hours of the entire W26 batch. Nearly all startups exceeding their goals.

Bit of a detour from sports betting, but the problem is surprisingly similar. Too much data for any human to process, critical insights buried in the noise, and a lot of edge/value to be find.
Don't worry - will still be posting about both 😎

3 months ago I tweeted asking for pain points. One patent attorney replied.
Somehow that led to me and 3 friends moving to San Francisco, building AI for patent litigation. We are now in Y Combinator and onboarded 10+ customers this week

Stilta (@StiltaIP) is building the Cursor for patent practitioners.
Unlike rigid or generic tools, Stilta uses agentic AI for deep patent research that's interactive and traceable.
Congrats @oskarblock, @petruswrn, @testreen & @oscaradamssons!
