Congrats on the launch! The tech is amazing

Quick q's (purely out of curiosity):

1) > We are [...] PhD students in AI at University of Montreal

Are you doing the startup on the side/planning on going back to school?

2) I don't recall reading about you guys in articles about YC S17 demo days. What are reasons why some companies might not participate in demo day or remain off-the-record? In your case, you seem to have had a working product long before demo day

Thank you!

1) The research of the PhD and the startup are quite complementary at the end, so we hope we can continue doing both.

2) We didn't do demo day because we raised our seed round just before YC and did not want to raise again.
