​Supported by Mastra:

​Mastra is the all-in-one TypeScript framework for building intelligent AI agents and complex workflows. Created by the team behind Gatsby, Mastra combines tool calling, memory, observability, and workflow orchestration into a developer-first experience. It empowers engineers to prototype and productionize AI features using modern JavaScript with built-in metrics, tracing, and RAG capabilities. If LangChain and the Vercel AI SDK had a smarter cousin, it would be Mastra.

​Pensar is an AI-powered security platform that finds and remediates vulnerabilities in your codebase before they hit production. Using advanced AI models, Pensar catches security issues that traditional static analyzers miss and automatically generates patches that match your coding style. The platform provides comprehensive code security, dependency scanning, and specialized protection for AI agents and applications.

​Coeus Collective is a founder-powered media and community platform elevating the most innovative minds in entrepreneurship, technology, and venture capital. Through podcasts, events, and digital media storytelling, we help founders and VCs develop their audience of builders and innovators. Past events have featured Daniel Lubetzky (KIND Bars, Shark Tank), Michael Baum (Splunk), and Siya Raj Purohit (OpenAI). The Coeus Collective Podcast is currently live on our Coeus Collective YouTube channel and all audio platforms!

​OSS4AI started out as a community for open source, but we've since evolved into a community dedicated to giving software developers a complete view of the AI developer tool ecosystem. OSS4AI is run completely on partnerships with companies providing ardent support for developers. See our partners at OSS4.AI.

​​​H*QUOTIENT is the leading next-gen community for deep tech founders & enthusiasts. We welcome founders, investors, hardware service providers (lawyers, OEMs & equipment providers, bankers, etc.) students of all kinds, post-docs & researchers, academics, engineers, scientists, and hardware allies! Since launching 2 months ago, we've grown to 1,000+ members across 40+ countries. We're developing events in AI, biotech, energy/climate, aerospace, quantum, advanced materials, and cybersecurity (all in the works now for this year!) — and we would love for you to get involved. Drop us a line at hquotient.tech@gmail.com.
