We want to find talent before it founds a company. Once someone appears in a funding round or a newsletter, everyone can see them. We are building a system that looks earlier, at what people are building and publishing while they are still unknown.
How we work
The system reads public sources on its own: code repositories, personal sites, forums, results from competitions, student organisations. It passes what it finds through several gates and agent runs that filter and rate it, and what comes out at the end is a ranked selection. The people on that list go to the investors we work with.
