Overview
Proximal is a new data company. Our core belief is that data which is complex enough to teach today's frontier models is not bottlenecked by domain experts, but by research, great systems, and excellent software. We are not a recruiting firm or a talent marketplace, but a research and engineering organization that treats data as a problem which deserves the same level of rigor as work on training algorithms and model architectures. We think that this is the most impactful work towards agents that can autonomously solve complex technical problems, and intend to share our research and progress in the open.
