What you likely need
You'd get the most out of Festival events that put you in the room with AI-focused pre-seed and seed investors who already understand the Cursor story and can move fast on a compelling RL-for-agents thesis. Warm-intro dinners with Cursor alumni and early Browserbase/Stagehand insiders would let you convert existing credibility into funded relationships without cold outreach. Smaller tactical roundtables with build-in-public AI researchers and open-source dev-tools founders would help you sharpen your GitHub presence and arXiv positioning before your funding narrative goes fully public.
Would you attend these IRL Festival events?
We will tune and customize your Founder Festival experience to make sure you get invited to the events that would be most valuable to you.
- fundraisingA dinner with Conviction, Nat Friedman/Daniel Gross, and Elad Gil portfolio founders to pressure-test Proximal's RL-for-coding-agents pitch and get direct feedback from the AI-focused funds most likely to lead your pre-seed or seed
- introsA Cursor founding-team alumni roundtable to surface warm intros from former colleagues and early Cursor investors — the most credible reference network in AI infrastructure funding right now
- fundraisingA YC W24 AI founder dinner with current and recent batch members building in coding agents and dev-tools to sharpen your YC application narrative and get candid advice from founders whose thesis overlaps with Proximal's
- positioningA Browserbase and Stagehand early-team happy hour to publicly reconnect with the $128.5M-funded product you helped pre-launch engineer and turn that contribution into a visible credibility signal for investors and recruits
- tacticalA build-in-public roundtable for AI researchers who have shipped arXiv preprints or open-source RL benchmarks, to get tactical feedback on Proximal's planned technical post and flagship open-source release before you publish
- tacticalA dinner for early-stage AI dev-tools founders who grew from single-digit to high-star GitHub repos, focused on open-sourcing strategy for RL environments and benchmark datasets that drive community signal ahead of a funding round
- hiringA hiring night for technical founders recruiting their second or third research engineer with RL or LLM fine-tuning experience, co-hosted with AI-focused talent from the Cursor and Browserbase extended networks
- positioningA dinner for pre-seed AI founders who are actively building their public research presence — arXiv preprints, technical blogs, HN launches — to swap positioning tactics and drive inbound from investors and senior engineering hires
