Ask about their runway/burn rate, and how they plan to raise more money (i.e. what milestones they plan to reach and how that gets them through a new round). This should be an easy question. Not being able to answer it or dissembling is a big red flag. Ask to meet the co-founders and see if you get along with them. If not, bail. If something about them seems odd, bail. Trust your instinct on this. You’ll end up spending a LOT of time with them, it’s not worth it if they’re jerks (even brilliant ones).
