About us
•
We’re building state-of-the-art context compression. Our mission is to become the “Cloudflare for LLMs” — a compression layer embedded into most LLM pipelines by default.
•
We’re a team of ex-EPFL MSc/PhDs from dlab. We started by publishing papers, then got into YC and started making money helping companies cut their LLM costs.
•
We run the business like a research lab: form hypotheses, kill the ones that don’t work, double down on the ones that do.
