I'm the co-founder and CEO of TensorZero.
We started the company two and a half years ago, and raised $7.3m in 2024 (announced only almost a year later). We've spent less than half of this amount.
Earlier this week we came to the difficult decision to wind down the project. The open-source repository remains available on GitHub (Apache 2.0) but won't be actively maintained by the team moving forward.
What did you spend the money on?
The other half goes where?
Is there anything your willing to share on what went into the decision/ what you learned about trying to build this kind of product?
Are there any lessons around the why which may be publicly shared ?
