About Compresr
Compresr provides an LLM context-compression API that accepts long context plus a query and returns a shorter context containing the answer-bearing tokens. It reduces token count, cost, and latency for LLM calls, and at light compression matches or beats full-context accuracy on public benchmarks. The service is available as a Python SDK, TypeScript SDK, or hosted HTTP API, and is designed for use in agent harnesses such as Claude Code and Cursor. The company is backed by Y Combinator and aims to become a compression layer embedded in most LLM pipelines.

What hardware and science work involves at an early-stage startup
You are often the first person to build, test or fix the thing. Lab and field work sit side by side, and results feed straight back into the design. A large employer would give you one instrument and one protocol, and an early startup gives you the whole bench.
