AI can now make you a great parent. Introducing Ollie: the world’s first AI family assistant that manages your family life better than any human. Here’s how it works:


You can work 5 days a week and succeed as a startup. Mercury has done that from day 0 and we are valued @ $5.2bn 7 years after launch. I have been an entrepreneur for 20 years and raised 3 kids while doing it. The point of success is to have a great life not just a startup 😊

Everyone says: hire people better than you, then get out of the way. One of my biggest mistakes at Algolia was taking that literally. Yes, hire people better than you. But don’t confuse seniority with earned trust. Stay close at first. Inspect the work. Pressure-test the judgment. If you’re still micromanaging after 3 months, you hired the wrong person. And trust your gut. As a founder, you are the most fine-tuned model in the world on your own company. If something feels off, it probably is, even when the exec says, “Trust me, I’ve done this for 20 years.”
