Introducing the beginning of Sonder.
We’ve put a lot of thought and experimentation into how language models might shape our relationships and identities, and we’ve found a direction we care deeply about.
Our personal context is story. Sonder is crafting the tools to help author your life story, and the platforms to connect your stories to others to better understand your self, your friends, your communities, and where your story might take you next.
We’re fortunate to have a few very special partners as investors, and are moving quickly and carefully to bring the right people in the team.
I’ll be reaching out directly to a few people who’s work I deeply respect, but please reply or reach out to me directly if you’d like to do meaningful work for human intimacy.

Announcing that @WillowVoiceAI has raised $4.2 million to build voice-first interfaces.
We started Willow after dropping out of Stanford freshman year to build a healthcare startup. It failed. We pivoted over 10 times, spent a year in the trenches, and learned how to build the hard way.
But we discovered something huge.
Voice scribes were giving doctors their lives back. They were able to focus on helping patients rather than wasting nights and weekends on paperwork.
That's when it hit us. If voice could transform healthcare, why not every knowledge worker? Why are a billion professionals still hammering away at keyboards to communicate with humans (email, Slack, writing) and AI (ChatGPT, Cursor)?
Today, thousands of professionals at companies like Canva, GitHub, and Webflow use Willow to work 5x faster.
We're building Willow to unlock voice as the universal interface where you can control any device, any app, any workflow simply by speaking.
