How founders are choosing what to build on at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 TechCrunch is promoting a Disrupt 2026 session titled “The Real Tokenmaxxing: How the Best AI Companies Navigate a Multi-Model World” on the Builder’s Stage, featuring Mo Jomaa of CapitalG, Vipul Ved Prakash of Together AI, and Zuzanna Stamirowska of Pathway. The session is framed around why companies use multiple models, balancing cost, performance, and flexibility, and when open models can outperform proprietary alternatives, but the article itself provides no benchmarks, pricing, or architecture details. It also lists Disrupt pass discounts: up to $100 off, a second pass at 50% off, and a $75 Expo+ Pass for those affected by layoffs. Why: This is event marketing, not technical evidence. Unless you are already planning to attend Disrupt around Oct. 13, there is nothing here that should change your model-provider choice; wait for the actual session or independent benchmarks before reworking a multi-model strategy. ai-models multi-model startup-strategy event-marketing
