Fun interview with Jacob Effron on the Unsupervised Learning podcast.

It’s hard to imagine more of a dream Unsupervised Learning guest than @ylecun. Yann is one of the godfathers of AI, and he has some fascinating contrarian views on the limitations of LLMs. It was incredible to get to have a wide-ranging discussion with Yann about these views,

Fun pod dropping tomorrow!

Congratulations to @RJScaringe and the entire Mind Robotics team on their $400M raise! We're excited to partner with them on this next chapter. Mind Robotics is building the full-stack platform to make robotics work in real-world manufacturing with a focus on scaled deployments. Dexterous, reasoning-intensive industrial tasks are finally within reach and RJ is building a team with deep expertise spanning AI, robotics, and industrial manufacturing. We couldn't be more excited to be along for the ride and for what's ahead 🚀

We're leading @champ_hq $8.5M round and partnering with @jputrevu, Ted Cheng, and Peter Lin. Congrats to the whole team as they emerge from stealth! Operations teams still struggle with the judgment-heavy work between their tools, from re-keying data out of faxed PDFs to waiting on hold with insurance companies. Champ's platform orchestrates browser, document, and voice agents end-to-end in a single system, so ops teams can finally automate this work in-house. Jagannath, Ted, and Peter spent nearly a decade together at Instacart scaling operations to over a million daily orders across 4,000+ retailers. Every backchannel we ran gave us conviction this is the team to win this market. We’re honored to be partnering with Jagannath, Ted, and Peter and are excited for what's ahead 🎉 .

@jputrevu @champ_hq @defyvc @Max @svangel Congrats team! up, uP, UP! 🚀🚀🚀

🚀 After a year of quiet building, I’m excited to officially announce @champ_hq out of stealth. We're also announcing our $8.5M Seed round led by @Redpoint with participation from @defyvc , @Max , @svangel, and a great group of angels. Watch the quick launch video below

@Revel_Software @AstroMechanica Congrats!! 👏👏👏

Congratulations to Sahir Jaggi and the entire @forushq team on their $160M raise! We're excited to partner with them on this next chapter. Scientific progress in medicine is accelerating, but getting breakthroughs to patients remains slow and unreliable. Even after FDA approval, too many eligible patients never receive treatment, caught in a system that wasn't built for the complexity of modern medicine. Forus connects doctors, pharmacies, payers, and biopharma to bring new science to patients. Embedded into physician workflows, the platform automates all steps between a clinical decision and a patient starting treatment, including insurance authorization, financial assistance, and fulfillment routing. Sahir is building a team whose ambition matches the scale of the problem, and we're honored to be along for the ride.

Introducing GTM Atlas, a map for modern AI GTM built with some of the best operators in the industry. A free resource covering the full customer journey, from lead capture to expansion, with the systems thinking that scales with you. Our first installation features entries from

We are honored to partner with Cam, Ned, and John.

Aaru is building a platform that simulates and predicts human behavior via agents, ultimately helping organizations make faster, more informed decisions. With Aaru, teams can run infinite "what if" scenarios and model how populations are likely to respond across a range of possible futures.

When @loganbartlett and Enzo first met the @aaruHQ team, they immediately sensed that something special was happening. The combination of the team's clarity of thought, the customer love we heard, and Aaru's ability to fundamentally rethink how organizations conduct customer research was exactly what we were looking for.

@poolsideai 👏👏👏

Today we’re releasing Laguna XS.2, Poolside’s first open-weight model. It’s a 33B total / 3B active MoE model built for agentic coding and long-horizon tasks. Trained fully in-house on our own stack. Runs on a single GPU. Released under Apache 2.0. Links 👇 Weights: huggingface.co/poolside/Lagun… API: platform.poolside.ai Blog: poolside.ai/blog/laguna-a-…

Today we’re shipping Laguna M.1 and Laguna XS.2 – our first public models. We’re also shipping our agent harness and a preview product experience. Both models were trained from scratch on our own stack: data pipelines, training infrastructure, and agent RL.

We're grateful to be partnering with the Golden Child team.

The team around them includes a head chef from Goldbelly, one of the country's leading board-certified vet nutritionists, and a world-class supply chain leader who knows how to turn an ambitious food vision into something you can actually deliver at scale.

We're ecstatic to be leading @joingoldenchild's $25M Series A. Golden Child is building something different: a fresh food system designed from the ground up.
