@KyleSamani Check out rings.ai @KyleSamani I'll DM you

Are there any AI-native CRMs that 1) can navigate X (including likes, replies, quote posts, reposts, etc), Telegram, email, to 2) build a more nuanced social + interest + expertise graph?

@lessin Agreed, especially the warm intro point. Mapping this at enterprise scale and exposing it to your legacy and future/agentic infrastructure is where we’ve seen enterprises win.

Thanks @joshferrufino - We love you guys too!

This is our thesis as well at @RingsApp, @theinformation @DJ_CURFEW - effective, secure, agents will increasingly rely on context centralization.

@bhalligan @nikunj Yes I think we went down memory lane on this over the summer. Ours was higher but they sent pizza! 🤦🏻‍♂️

@Gedalin @nikunj My memory isn’t as good as it used to be. You’re probably right.

I wish I had hired slower and fired faster.

@bhalligan @nikunj Scale and Focus no?

@Gedalin @nikunj Just Scale, I thought

@bhalligan @nikunj You had at least 2 for the C! 😉

@nikunj Back when we were raising, we raised at the highest and often only price we got. The c, d, & e we only got 1 term sheet each.

@PhilChen22 @LumiaCapital @RingsApp Thank you for the amazing support and helping us get here!

@Gedalin @LumiaCapital @RingsApp Congrats Martin! Been loving the product

As a longtime investor and founder at @LumiaCapital , I've felt firsthand how difficult it is to manage relationships at scale. I'm excited to introduce what my team at Rings AI (@RingsApp) have been building over the last few years to solve this. If you're evaluating CRM decisions for 2026 or would like to explore how to add relationship intelligence to your current stack, let's chat: rings.ai/book-a-demo

@shaig @RingsApp Thank you as always to you and team Brex for the awesome support on all fronts!

A legendary statement from the President of the University of Florida:

I went to an ancient village in northern Iraq once when reporting for 60 Minutes. I asked them to take me to the oldest building in the village. They did not take me to the mosque as I expected, they took me to the synagogue. Then I asked to go to the second oldest building and they took me to the Assyrian church. Then I asked “what about the mosque”? They said that came “after”. So I looked it up. Turned out the Assyrians were the first to convert to Christianity as a nation in the 1st century AD. And 500 - 600 years later the first Muslims came to that land. I was surprised because there is no mention of this ever. I lived in Iraq for five years before this and never considered for a moment that anyone else had a claim to any of that land - it was never part of the narrative there or in the US or anywhere else. And then a Kurdish man educated me on their history and how many of the Kurds were taxed into extinction by Muslim conquerors/invaders and forced to convert. It’s why some Kurds still bear hatred towards their Muslim neighbor’s today. What is the point? That there’s enough blame to go around - you can find it everywhere you go. But there is never an excuse for slaughtering innocent, unarmed people in cold blood. Never. And if you are justifying this, you are on the wrong side of history.

Curious what Careem's $3.1 billion acquisition by Uber means for the startup ecosystem in the Middle East? Its first U.S. investors, @MobileRogers and Peter Weed, break it down for @forbes. #328cad3b7fa2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">forbes.com/sites/valleyvo…
