What is AI Tinkerers?
AI Tinkerers is a meetup exclusively for practitioners with technical, machine learning, and entrepreneurial backgrounds who are actively building and working with foundation models, such as large language models (LLMs) and generative AI. If you’re deeply passionate about creating LLM-enabled applications, have hands-on experience in building such systems, and want to connect with like-minded people who share your level of commitment, then this group is the perfect fit for you. With AI Tinkerers meetings happening in many cities, we support a dedicated global community.
Who is this for?
We are not just “AI enthusiasts”, we are AI Tinkerers. The core essence of AI Tinkerers is active collaboration around early-stage discovery and innovation, which requires a high degree of experimentation, vulnerability, openness to sharing challenges and learnings, and collaboration among individuals with a shared level of expertise. This unique environment allows us to embrace experimentation, foster an atmosphere of trust and innovation, and create world-changing solutions. 🌍

PostHog
PostHog is an all-in-one product OS designed for engineers, offering product analytics, session replay, feature flags, A/B testing, and surveys in a single platform. It enables teams to understand user behavior, deploy features, and analyze data without patching together multiple tools. Founded in Y Combinator (W20), it supports both cloud-hosted and open-source self-hosting.
Veris AI (Venue Host)
Veris AI accelerates agent development and deployment with a simulation sandbox platform that delivers robust, compliant AI systems at speed. Veris sandbox is pre-loaded with test scenarios, simulated tools, and personas. Using the sandbox, you can run thousands of simulated interactions across routine workflows, challenging edge cases, and adversarial scenarios. Veris AI creates root-cause analysis reports, regression testing gates, and prompt or RL optimization loops to improve the agent using these interactions before the agent touches the first real system or customer.
CopilotKit
CopilotKit is an open-source framework for building AI copilots and agent-native experiences directly into your app. It gives you React components and hooks for in-app chat, generative UI, and shared state between your frontend and agents, and it works with agent frameworks like LangGraph, CrewAI, and Mastra through the AG-UI protocol. Ship agents that live inside the product instead of beside it.
Tavily
Tavily is a search engine built for AI agents. Its API returns real-time, source-cited web results and page extracts optimized for LLM context, so agents and RAG pipelines can ground answers in current information with a single call. Tavily powers research agents, assistants, and data pipelines for teams that need reliable web access without scraping infrastructure.
