Why it matters
Seeing ten early-stage AI products demoed live in one evening is an efficient way to map the current frontier of what teams are actually building and shipping, including where they are using LLMs in production.
The tokenmaxxing angle
Early-stage AI demos routinely expose architectural choices about model selection and inference cost — founders pitching live often field questions about operating costs and unit economics that reveal real-world tokenmaxxing tradeoffs.
