ENT x idler: Building the Data Behind Frontier AI
Epsilon Nu Tau welcomes you to a talk, fireside Q&A, and networking session with idler.
idler is a YC-backed frontier data research lab. We build the evals and environments that the world's leading AI labs use to measure and train their models. After raising a $9M seed round led by Paradigm, Idler spent the last year developing coding evals for top models. We've since expanded into law, cybersecurity, enterprise business, and auto-research. Lab demand now exceeds what Idler can serve, and the team is hiring.
