Will Bryk is on a mission to rebuild search for the age of AI. As co-founder and CEO of Exa, he's building the search engine that AI agents and LLMs actually use, backed by over $100M from Benchmark, Lightspeed, Nvidia, and Y Combinator. Will grew up in New York City, studied CS and physics at Harvard, and led the robotics club while going deep on machine learning research. He founded Exa on a simple but sweeping conviction: the future of civilization depends on the quality of information we consume.
