1 Million Cups Sacramento with SmartStart AI and Good Neighbor Guard

You’re invited to 1 Million Cups Sacramento! Every Wednesday morning, one or two entrepreneurs present their early-stage businesses in 6 minute presentations that are followed by 20 minutes of questions, feedback and advice from an audience of their peers. Join us on Zoom every Wednesday. Doors open at 8:45 AM. and the program starts promptly at 9 AM (we aren’t kidding — you’ll miss the first presentation if you’re 10 minutes late. But come anyway!).

PRESENTERS

SmartStart AI Co-pilot Program aims to develop a groundbreaking artificial intelligence platform designed to revolutionize homebuying education and support. The advanced AI provides personalized guidance throughout the homebuying journey, addressing a critical need in the housing market.

Good Neighbor Guard builds AI safety tools for people who can’t afford to be misled. Our first product, Veracore, is a live truth verification engine that runs answers through multiple AI models simultaneously — including an adversarial layer that actively tries to prove the answer wrong — before showing results with real sources. Built by a self-taught founder in Sacramento who started coding 6 weeks ago after watching his uncle get scammed twice in one week.

Thank you to our annual sponsor SMUD!
