And now for this week’s prescription:

On this week’s dose, we start (1:52) with a breakdown of Growl, a connected fitness startup aiming to create the “Peloton of Boxing,” fresh off a $4.75M seed round. Next (12:38), we spotlight Liquid AI, a company taking a radically different approach to AI by modeling their technology on the brain of a worm rather than a human, backed by a $250M funding round. Finally (18:08), we wrap up with a deep dive into Public, a startup empowering users to invest smarter. What began as a social stock trading platform has evolved into an AI-enabled investment tool, fueled by their recent $135M Series D.
