Resolute Ventures

Vercel now powers the Notion agent platform. Not only are they a great company and product I use daily, I think they're going to be one of the big winners of the agent era. The main 'runtime' of an agent is English (natural language) documents and specs. The other ingredient is access to data and integrations. Notion is at the center of both.

Incredible write up from our founder @dorna_at_gavel - those on the inside building with AI are trying to help everyone prepare for some massive changes:

Fundraising doesn't start when you send your first deck. It starts months earlier, in the decisions you make about how to present your business financially. The founders who raise efficiently aren't just better storytellers. They've done the prep work: clean projections, a runway narrative that makes sense, and a clear answer to "why now" that goes beyond market timing. We're hosting a live session with Gust on March 12 to break down what that preparation actually looks like. Not theory, but a real timeline and the specific financial milestones investors look for before they write a check. If you're planning to raise in the next 6 to 12 months, this is the session to attend before you start outreach. 📅 Thu, March 12 · 2:00 PM ET Free and live.

Vercel partnered with Stripe to make secure checkouts even easier, and it's now generally available. Get started in v0, Vercel Marketplace, or the Vercel CLI with: ▲ ~/ 𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚌𝚎𝚕 𝚒𝚗𝚝𝚎𝚐𝚛𝚊𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 𝚊𝚍𝚍 𝚜𝚝𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚎

Announcing jo 1.0 - rebuilt from scratch! Two years ago we launched a macOS productivity sidekick. Today it's something different: a personal AI that actually knows your life. Your Mac. Your dedicated cloud machine. Your data stays yours. askjo.ai

We're hiring! 6 new roles open at Paces across Customer Success, Solutions, and Sales. Know someone who'd be a great fit? Send them our way: hubs.la/Q045mMjR0

$98B in data center investment blocked in Q2 2025. These projects were killed because of risks other than power. New from @kyle__cb on why the race to power is really a race to de-risk: hubs.la/Q0453WJc0

There’s never been a better time to start a company. If you’re a founder, this is an opportunity to have access to the Vercel team, investors and $6M in credits. A new class of companies is emerging. Smaller, flatter, faster growing, autonomous. Agentic. I encourage you to apply not just with an idea of what to build, but also how to build it.

Looking sharp!

Introducing Timeless: the first platform where your conversations build your agents. It records all your conversations, then auto-gathers the right context around a topic (like, user feedback) and triggers multi-step agents that know exactly what to do next. Think fireflies meets n8n, without the effort. Officially open to all users. Except this annoying agent. He’s not allowed inside. Go to timeless.day and try it out. Or, continue wasting your meetings.

Everything is sales. And sales is the art of the follow up. But sellers are overwhelmed, and don’t know where to focus. You’re not losing deals, you’re losing moments. Mixmax helps you catch every one of them, so nothing (and no one) goes cold.

Keen insights from @AlexYancher on everything going on today with the Supreme Court & tariffs:

Thrilled to continue partnering with Noam, two-time UpWest-backed founder, and #AsafFadida, Co-Founder & CTO - helping government agencies embrace AI the right way and drive greater impact 🚀 Glad to have @InsightPartners & @ResoluteVC on this journey. Congrats, @DarwinGov 👏

Congrats @rauchg and the entire @vercel team!

IN NEWS: @AvenCard raises $110M Series E to build America’s first “machine banking” platform for homeowners. @sadiskhan (Co-founder & CEO, Aven) on navigating interest rates and consumer demand: “Our goal is to build a product with the lowest cost of capital for consumers after your primary mortgage. Rate hikes or cuts don’t change that mission.” He says when interest rates go down, demand for credit rises, and homeowners tap into home equity more, especially because refinancing is harder when mortgage rates are low and locked in.

That’s a wrap on #ClimateWeekNYC 🌍 We kicked off with Paces Green Spirit Day, joined a climate basketball tournament, and closed with a community happy hour at @FarmDotOne — connecting with renewable energy peers & learning about sustainable farming. Thanks all!

We can now build the one-person $1B power development company. By leveraging AI and robotics we are seeing the emergence of "A flywheel of compounding infrastructure buildout... data centers that can build other data centers." (Sam Altman)
