Why it matters
Bay Area demo nights are an early-warning system for the agent stack — what local startups ship at GitHub HQ this month tends to show up in everyone else's roadmap next quarter.
The tokenmaxxing angle
Startup agent demos reveal architecture under cost pressure: which models they route to, what runs locally, where they cache. Founders at demo nights will often tell you their inference margins if you ask.
