No open roles: the jobs page says the company is not hiring at the moment and asks people to check back.
Part 02 · Funding
Every announced round, who put money in, and what it was last valued at
No round has been announced. The About page says only that the investors include Y Combinator and a small collection of angel investors; it gives no amount, no date and no names beyond that.
Ninite, as ToolGPA grades it: five subjects, a letter for each, and a GPA.
