If AGI is going to 100x GDP, it will need to be able to use a computer.
Autotab is the first digital robot that controls a computer like a human. It excels at the highly repetitive tasks that make up the worst parts of modern knowledge work. If we succeed, we will provide the platform that unlocks the next 100x productivity increase, and frees humans from trillions of hours of soul-crushing work.
We are second time founders backed by OpenAI and YCombinator. We are live in production and are working with some of the biggest companies you use every day to handle critical tasks that humans used to do. We’re rapidly scaling up to meet demand, and building a 5-person founding team where everyone builds product and talks to users.
If you are technical and have founded or want to start a company we should talk!

The hardest and most important problems won't be solved working 9-5, 5 days a week.
Nobody feels like they "have to" come in on Saturdays - we find purpose in our work, and see it as the main way we can have a meaningful impact. We enjoy working, learning and spending time together.
We would much rather spend 70 hours a week doing great work than clocking in for 40 hours a week.
Plus we do take Sundays off.
> Nobody feels like they "have to" come in on Saturdays
If you list it upfront in your job postings like you're doing here, people will feel like they have to work on Saturdays. Though it looks like maybe your company is just you and a co-founder at this point. If that's correct, it's a little misleading to say that "nobody" feels this way, when the only two employees of the company are the two cofounders that have the most skin in the game.
By setting this policy, you are filtering out a wide-ranging group of senior engineers with families, side projects, and other commitments (such as myself) who will read this and move on immediately (or comment "lol" like another reply below).
I'm not necessarily just "looking for a job that pays the bills," either; I advised, and then directly worked full-time for, a startup that grew from 2 cofounders in the late aughts to IPOing on the NASDAQ about 5 years ago.
Obviously, it's your company, and if it works for you, then great. However if I were an investor in your company I'd have serious qualms with it.
I don't feel like I "have to" work 6 days a week - I do it because I want to. You may say that this is just because I'm a cofounder, but that's not true - I did the same thing at past startups where I was an early hire, but not a cofounder. Because I enjoyed the work, found it meaningful and loved learning. This is the kind of person we're looking for.
Maybe you don't need highly experienced senior people at the stage you're at now, but you will at some point, and by setting this expectation now you're setting yourself up for failure in the future, IMHO (which is why I'd be questioning you heavily if I were an investor).
