Extern created the remote Externship, a skill-building work experience that is easier for students to access, and easier for companies to run, than an internship. Our mission is to help anyone discover and launch their career through professional experiences available anywhere at any time. Since 2020, we’ve created and powered Externships for over 50,000 students on behalf of companies from Fortune 500s to startups. \r\n\r\nAfter spending $100K on average for a 4-year degree, graduates find that almost 40% of entry level jobs on Linkedin required 3+ years of work experience. Internships are how many college students get this kind of experience, but the demand for good internships outstrips the supply. Internship programs are difficult to scale, they favor students who already have social capital, and they’re time-consuming for employers to run.\r\n\r\nExternships are short, online, project-based work experiences that employers can offer to hundreds of students using less resource and employee time than it would take to support an intern. Extern makes the complex process of running an Externship completely turnkey with software and industry experts which in turn makes professional experience more accessible to more students.\r\n\r\nBy making work experience more accessible, Extern is driving the rapid mobility and upskilling needed for a new economy. We envision a world where anyone can access work experience as a form of education – no matter their background, experience, or socio-economic status. Come join our movement to reshape work, education, and credentialing for future generations with the Externship.\r\n\r\nExtern was born out of a pivot from Paragon One (W17) which initially focused on providing students with a career center-as-a-service platform, connecting them with industry professionals to receive career coaching and guidance.

The leading gum is sold like a pharmaceutical drug, with flavoring and packaging to match. Vapes provide a cumbersome, over-the-top experience — with use as tightly restricted as cigarette smoking itself, but more juvenile, conspicuous, and highly addictive. People want, and deserve, a better way.\r\n\r\nTherefore, we want to deliver nicotine users a superior experience, and at the same time give them a way to transition out of feeling dependent. In a better society, people wouldn’t carry around the sensation that they’re stuck with an involuntary habit. Our mission isn’t to encourage nicotine use among people who haven’t started. Unlike certain vapes or other products, ours isn’t the sort coveted by underage users on social media. Our mission is to alleviate the harm related to tobacco — first and foremost, by switching people away from the most harmful products.\r\n\r\nSo, at Lucy, we take an evidence based view of nicotine. Nicotine’s pleasurable properties make it an inevitable part of modern society. Therefore, minimizing harm in all nicotine products is key, in addition to giving people products and strategies for cessation. We feel that, as 1,300 people are dying of tobacco related illnesses every day in the US, the most important and immediate step toward a better society is giving nicotine consumers products they enjoy using that will cause less harm.\r\n\r\nOur first product is designed to appeal to smokers and encourage them to switch. And, looking ahead, we hope to secure approval in the future as a clinically proven smoking cessation aid, while continuing to participate in the FDA’s public hearings around how NRTs are best regulated. Our goals are simple: because harm reduction is a better strategy around nicotine delivery than abstinence or prohibition, we want to help improve public health — and reduce its costs — through a superior pure nicotine product.", "one_liner": "Lucy’s mission is to reduce tobacco-related harm to zero.

Diners can see live table availability, access dynamic menus, place orders, and self-checkout instantly without waiting for staff. This removes the biggest friction in dining — interruptions — and turns going out into a smooth, uninterrupted experience.\r\n\r\nWhat makes Explorex fundamentally different is the data layer. Unlike delivery platforms that only see orders, we capture real-world, in-venue behavior — what people order, how long they stay, how groups behave, how menus perform, and how experiences impact spending.\r\n\r\nWe are now building Elara, an AI-powered dining concierge that uses this data to guide users to the best possible experience in real time — factoring in intent, context, weather, vibe, availability, and historical behavior. This allows us to move beyond discovery into decision-making, becoming the intelligence layer for offline commerce.\r\n\r\nFor restaurants, this translates into higher revenue through better table utilization, increased average order value, and direct access to high-intent consumers.

The one who remembers everything, plans effortlessly, and keeps the crew together.\r\n\r\nHere's what that looks like:\r\n\r\n- Book restaurants together, with Yelp built in, directly in the chat. No more \"where should we go?\" spirals. Reserve instantly.\r\n- Create images with your friends: drop your crew into funny hats, wild scenes, anything you can dream up. Multiplayer image gen, first of its kind.\r\n- Social calendar: upcoming hangs, all in one place. Everyone on the same page.\r\n- Group Wrapped: who's the chattiest? Top inside jokes? Now you'll know.\r\n- Reminders & Memory: Alfi remembers your spots, your preferences, and nudges you to actually hang out.\r\n\r\nWe're in the middle of a quiet shift. Gen Z is leaving broadcast social media. They're retreating to group chats, smaller, more intentional and personal spaces where they're honestly themselves.\r\n\r\nBut group chats are also where plans go to die. Someone has to be \"the planner\" or nothing happens.\r\n\r\nWe believe the group chat is the real social network. Where the funniest moments and real conversations happen in real time.
