Made the top 10 of the @Siftedeu 100 in the UK and Ireland - who knows insurance sucked so much!

If a PLG SaaS tool does this, they deserve to get swallowed by AI.

Every WeWork style flex office always consists of that one loud dude, with a ThinkPad, a sales headset, and questionable hygiene — just somehow keeping slipped through the cracks of the membership process.

WhatsApp needs a schedule message feature. You'd never miss a birthday again.

Be a UK Founder: >> Reach out to a VC in June >> Hear back 4 months later in November >> VC is keen for a call - great >> Next available meeting is 3 months later in Jan Most startups would have died by then. When @kirbyman01 invested in the @elevenlabs Series A he finished speaking to @matiii on the phone and jumped on a flight to London within an hour. They went for lunch and agreed the terms then and there. Europe needs to PICK UP THE SPEED

How is this a new concept to them. Irish banks have been rinsing people’s savings for years. That’s how they stay terrible with huge revenue.

Another example of how little research or understanding of history he has—and his willingness to misinform without research. Nazis violently opposed socialism, free speech, artists and unions. It was far-right authoritarian ideology, despite the word “socialist” in its name
Elon Musk@elonmusk

@TheAliceSmith Hitler was a far left socialist. His party was called the national socialists.

Kota is crushing it. If you're an ambitious person looking for their next gig in fintech I would highly encourage checking them out (happy investor)

Someone mentioned they weren’t sure how Kota was doing — apparently due to our lack of LinkedIn noise (crazy). So, for the record: • 15× annualised revenue growth • From 6-figure ARR to 8-figure ARR in a single year • 50k+ employees covered across 100+ countries • Team grew from 22 → 50, across 10 countries (outgrew 2 offices) • Embedded insurance powering some of the world’s leading HR platforms • An ungodly amount of product shipped for a team this size • Closed our Series A — plenty of firepower for what’s coming next I couldn’t be more proud of this team. We’re building quietly, shipping relentlessly, and setting up something very special for 2026. We’ll be doubling the team again next year — it’s a great time to join.

Uber protest by taxi drivers seems to have gone well. After a 25% increase in fares in 5 years, no innovation, sub par service, I think public are not going to care much about some progressive pricing.
