Andreas Stuhlmüller

Andreas Stuhlmüller is the cofounder and CEO of Elicit, an AI research assistant that automates evidence synthesis for scientists and analysts. A cognitive scientist by training (PhD, MIT), he built probabilistic programming languages before turning to a single question: can AI help people reason well about hard problems? His answer is process supervision, the idea that you get trustworthy machines by watching how they think, not just grading what they produce. Elicit, which spun out of his nonprofit Ought, raised a $22M Series A in 2025 and serves hundreds of thousands of researchers.
