Shubham Palriwala
Shubham Palriwala is the co-founder and CEO of Agnost AI (YC S26), a startup building the self-improving layer for AI agents in production. A backend engineer by trade, he was the youngest engineer on Cisco's analytics team and the first hire at open-source survey company Formbricks before teaming up with childhood friend Parth Ajmera to read production AI conversations and automatically ship fixes back to the agents that generate them.
Charles Packer
Charles Packer is the co-founder and CEO of Letta, the San Francisco startup building the memory layer for AI agents. He is the original author of MemGPT, the viral research project that reframed large language models as operating systems that manage their own memory. A UC Berkeley computer science PhD out of the BAIR and Sky Computing labs, Packer walked away from offers at OpenAI and Google DeepMind to build stateful agents that remember, learn, and improve after deployment - the layer he argues sits above the base models and separates a real agent from a chatbot with a nice interface.
