it was incredible to chat with @drfeifei and i’m excited about what she’s building with spatial intelligence. now it feels more feasible than when we did back at escher reality since LLMs opened a new door.

4/6 during the interview, I asked, “Have you considered going open source?” It felt crazy to give away their IP. Once the batch started, a chat with @daltonc further convinced them, and they went OSS.

3/6 with each project, they hit the same wall: wrangling API keys, DB tokens, certs, and SSH creds. env chaos across local vs. prod environments. it was one of those messy, schlep-blindness problems that quietly hide great startup ideas, so they pivoted.

2/6 while they were students at Cornell, @matsiiako , @maidulll & @dangtony98 hacked on many side projects. They even applied to YC with a podcast app but didn’t get in.
