🎉 Neo Scholar applications are open today.

Introducing Codemaps in @windsurf! powered by SWE-1.5 and Sonnet 4.5 “Your code is your understanding of the problem you’re exploring. So it’s only when you have your code in your head that you really understand the problem.” — @paulg

recently, i spent some time working on cross-lingual alignment for LLMs via encoder injection! treating languages as modalities is a compute-efficient way to extend understanding of low-resource languages without extending pre-training or the tokenizer

Election day is officially over! We hit the pavement to hear your thoughts. Thanks for stopping to chat with us, NYC! We're on a mission to make group decisions less 🤯. #ElectionDay2025

Election day

We've shipped several quality-of-life improvements to Cursor! Details below...

Prediction markets hit the NHL, autonomous websites, & more. Check out our Neo & Noteworthy October '25 recap of learnings and announcements by Neo portfolio companies and community members. Share your thoughts and subscribe to stay posted on all things Neo!

Generalists are useful, but it’s not enough to be smart. Advances come from specialists, whether human or machine. To have an edge, agents need specific expertise, within specific companies, built on models trained on specific data. We call this Specific Intelligence. It's

AI is coming for hardware R&D. One of our newest portcos is building at the intersection of AI x frontier physical sciences R&D (batteries, semiconductors, aerospace). The team came from SpaceX, Apple, and Warp, with backgrounds in AI and particle physics. They're tackling a

We've spent a lot of time thinking about how humans will interact with long-running agents. I believe it's one of the most important problems to solve over the next few years. Some thoughts / what we've learned: https://t.co/lv49jWlhTq

Introducing Pinch to Build A completely new interface for vibe coding professional apps One that makes building mobile apps feel like using CapCut 7 HUGE updates 🧵⬇️ (Reply to this post, & we'll DM you free access right now)

i’ve been deeply obsessed with the question of how to make humans less fragile. several months ago i decided to leave Stanford to research and deploy the biological machine learning methods that can get us closer. can finally share that i’ve been on the founding team

The @Neo team and I spent the last few days meeting incredible Harvard & MIT students. 💙 From 1:1 office hours with 70+ individual students, to group Q&As with inspiring founders like @LuanaLopesLara, @EvaTuecke, & @Elie_Cuevas, it was fantastic, and I can't wait to return!

@ZeffMax is excellent at putting into words why myself and @sudip_r0y felt the need to bet against scaling. While the last decade was about compute, the next will be shaped by the efficiency of adaptation. It is the most important problem. If you enjoyed the article, join us.

The story of Kalshi has had endless rejection. Whether it's the government, media, or Wall St, we have often been perceived as renegades. Yet, most important things in history were rejected... until they got accepted. Today, the NHL has accepted prediction markets.

Kalshi is now the Official Prediction Market Partner of the @NHL A Big 4 league. A first-of-its-kind partnership. The start of a new era.

Stoked to announce that @AugmentMarkets has raised a $12M Series A led by @BuildersVC with participation from @neo, Golden Section, E1 Ventures, @TheRealCorpBro, and OPCO Ventures. Alongside the raise, we’re unveiling a new look. As our team grew from <10 to 35 in the past year,

We’re thrilled to announce that Augment has raised a $12M Series A led by @BuildersVC with participation from @neo, Golden Section, E1 Ventures, @TheRealCorpBro, and OPCO Ventures. In tandem, we’ve unveiled a new look. As our team grew from <10 to 35 in the past year, a distinct

AI can now predict your future — before you’re born. @nucleusgenomics just launched Origin, disease models trained on 1.5M genomes combining 7M genetic markers. Origin predicts human longevity from embryo DNA more accurately than any model ever built. And it’s open-weighted.

Deel has raised $300M at a $17.3B valuation We started about 6 years ago, struggling to even make $10K. I've never shared this before because of how embarrassing our start was. The story of how we went from $1K to $1B and the advice I'd give to my younger self:

Coding agents are either smart, or fast - but rarely both. One reason is that gathering the right context takes a long time. Today, we introduced an in-house model family optimized for extremely fast context retrieval, delivering higher retrieval quality in <1/10th the latency.
