Who they amplify

Accounts whose posts Tom has reposted recently: Centaur.ai.

Why it matters here

Little direct relevance to taste data; useful as someone who has run labeling operations at scale (Cruise) and could speak to QA tooling.

How to reach

Speculative: LinkedIn; frame around labeling-ops tooling rather than sales.

What we could not establish
  • Year he joined Centaur not confirmed (YesPress names him a co-founder alongside the 2017 founding).
  • Current location beyond YC's 'Durham, NC' not verified for 2026.
