Macroscope superpowers software teams so that everyone has the advantage. Leaders get an accurate birds eye view of how the codebase and product is evolving, on-demand without ever having to interrupt engineers. Engineers save time by getting direct access to all the information about the codebase and automate code reviews that find correctness issues before they get to production. And we power all of this from a single source of truth - the codebase itself.

Neuralink is a neurotechnology company building a generalized input/output platform for the brain. Our work has the potential to restore autonomy to those with unmet medical needs and fundamentally transform how humans interact with the world. Our core technology is an implantable brain-computer interface with ultra-thin, flexible electrode threads placed precisely by a surgical robot, enabling high-bandwidth, bidirectional interaction with neural signals. We’ve received multiple FDA Breakthrough Device designations and are conducting clinical trials around the world. Trial participants are exploring how our implant could enhance their daily lives — controlling digital devices like computers and smartphones, operating physical devices like robotic arms and wheelchairs, and translating thought directly into speech and text. Developing brain-computer interfaces is an interdisciplinary challenge, and we’re looking for exceptional talent across engineering, science, and operations.

Tome is an AI assistant for enterprise sellers, built to automate manual work and enable more effective conversations throughout the entire sales cycle. The Tome platform trains custom language models on your company’s sales methodology, value framework, and GTM tech stack, allowing AEs to: 1. Book more qualified pipeline with automated account and persona research, suggested value hypotheses, and personalized outreach messages for the highest priority accounts. 2. Accelerate existing pipeline with detailed meeting prep, generated collateral, AI note taking synced to your CRM, and automated follow-ups. 3. Optimize their sales playbook with insights on which messages, features, and collateral lead to bigger, faster deals. In this new world, AEs can focus less on work that weighs them down and more on spending time with customers. Sales leaders can ensure quality pipeline creation is maximized, more deals are won, and reps ramp faster. And RevOps leaders are at peace-of-mind knowing their systems and processes are being used to their full potential.
