Alex Shan
Alex Shan is the 22-year-old co-founder and CEO of Judgment Labs, a San Francisco startup building the continuous-improvement stack for AI agents. A former Stanford NLP researcher under Chris Manning who pioneered autonomous networking agents at Juniper Networks, Shan started Judgment with two childhood best friends to give teams tools that understand what their agents are actually doing - not just their inputs and outputs. In May 2026 the company closed $32 million in combined seed and Series A funding led by Lightspeed Venture Partners.
