    What is Dust? A Paris-based AI platform building multiplayer agentic systems for enterprise teams, founded 2023 by Stanislas Polu (ex-OpenAI) and Gabriel Hubert (ex-Stripe, ex-Alan).
    How much did Dust raise? A $40M Series B in May 2026 led by Sequoia Capital and Abstract Ventures, with Snowflake and Datadog participating. Total funding to date: over $60M.
    What is multiplayer AI? Shared, governed access to the same AI agents, context, and tools across an organization, so AI usage compounds across teams instead of staying locked inside private chat windows.
    Why does this matter? Most enterprise AI today is single-player. Dust's bet is that compounding leverage requires shared infrastructure, not better individual assistants.

    Speech-to-text APIs now process 500M+ hours of audio a month across enterprise apps, but a transcript alone isn't enough for fraud detection, healthcare scribing, or call-center QA. Here's how 12 leading APIs compare on real-time speed, diarization, languages, and voice intelligence.
    There are many speech to text APIs available, and they all have different capabilities for speech to text conversion. Only a few speech to text APIs can perform tone, intent, and behavioral analysis of the speech.

  • The Only Context Rule Your AI Agents Actually Need

    This story was originally published on HackerNoon at: https://hackernoon.com/the-only-context-rule-your-ai-agents-actually-need.


    Your AI agent doesn’t need more context. It needs cleaner context: refreshed often, kept minimal, and not treated like memory.

    Bigger context windows don’t equal smarter agents. Systems may need rich memory, but individual agents need clean, minimal context. Refresh context often, keep it focused, offload durable memory to external systems, and use agent hierarchies when the system needs more knowledge.

    This article explores why production-grade LLM serving is fundamentally a memory management problem rather than a pure compute problem. Using real-world examples from GPU inference clusters, it breaks down KV cache fragmentation, PagedAttention, prefix caching, continuous batching, chunked prefill, speculative decoding, and KV cache quantization, showing how modern inference systems achieve massive throughput gains through smarter memory orchestration
