We've raised $11M (Seed, Lux Capital) at a $70M valuation and partnered with Qualcomm to run our models locally on next-gen Snapdragon NPUs. GA launches this June and we're adding founding-level engineers with deep full-stack chops and razor-sharp product intuition.If you obsess over shipping delightful user experiences, own problems end-to-end, and want impact measured in billions of users, let's talk.Why Context?What it means for you

• Massive problem: Office workers waste --- 5% of global GDP on formatting slides & spreadsheets. Your craft erases that drag.
• Unique tech moat: A memory stack + swarm agents that out-reason long-context models-your UI becomes their super-power.
• Real adoption --' feedback loops: Users stick after a single deliverable-design decisions ship to real customers fast.
• Small, elite engineering: 10 engineers from Stanford, Microsoft Research, Tesla Autopilot, etc.-no bureaucracy, launch daily.
• Hardware ally: Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite partnership: 10-- lower latency, on-device privacy. Gateway into enterprise & government.What you'll build
  • End-to-end product features - rich editors, interactive dashboards, and multi-modal canvases that feel magical yet familiar.
