OPERATIONAL STATUS UNCERTAIN: both co-founders exited to Meta Superintelligence Labs around June-July 2025 and Meta acquired a stake (up to 49%) in their NFDG fund; third-party listings still reference a 2026 'Batch 4' but this could not be independently confirmed via the program's own site. Verify directly before including in outreach.
