glad you landed on tiny ai frontier models that can run on 25mb ;).
Announcing it a little late, but excited to share that I got into YC S25!. I've always been super passionate about on-device AI and have always wanted to start a company. So we're building @stellon_labs, where we create tiny frontier models that can run on edge devices. Some

Congratulations to Sola!! It was not too long ago when they were in the batch in S23. I was impressed with how quickly they closed enterprise deals during the batch and continued growing!.
Excited to announce that @SolaAI_ has raised a $17.5M Series A led by @a16z with support from @Conviction @ycombinator, bringing total funding to $21M 🚀. From the start, we set out to reimagine human-AI interaction to push the boundaries of process automation. Our agents watch
