Fly and ellipsis are coming together to give early-stage founders brutally honest feedback on their business idea and pitch. The things a VC thinks in a meeting but doesn't tell you. Between us we've backed 70+ startups. Both funds are run by ex-engineers and deep tech founders, so questions get technical fast.

Robot Learning Paper Club - The RL post-training edition.
