@m_franceschetti @eightsleep @tether Continue to be a massive fan. Can’t imagine sleeping without my eight sleep

Today we're announcing a new round of funding that values @eightsleep at $1.5 billion, led by @tether Investments. Ten years ago I started Eight Sleep with one conviction: the night is the most underutilized lever in human health. Almost nobody was engineering their sleep. Last year, we hit free cash flow positivity, launched 3 new products, expanded to 34 countries, and published peer-reviewed studies showing the Pod reduces menopausal hot flashes by 56% and restores the body's natural circadian temperature rhythm during sleep, lowering core body temperature and improving cardiovascular recovery. A product you sleep on is producing clinical outcomes that rival pharmaceutical interventions. We're now building a predictive AI agent trained on 1B+ hours of sleep data. It anticipates your night before it happens. And we're advancing FDA filings for sleep apnea detection. Passive. Every night. No wires, no clinic visits. The night is just the beginning.

@ankurnagpal Would love to check this out!

I wrote a Notion guide on what I would do differently as a founder if I were to start from scratch: I talk about equity, fundraising, raising money, taxes, hiring & paying my team, running finance, selling secondaries & exiting Leave a comment & I'll DM you a copy

@Bdyroff14 @TheStreetSheet Let's go!

Be greedy for research. Something big is coming to @TheStreetSheet 👀

My 8 Sleep has easily been the best health investment I've made. Per my whoop data: Hours slept vs hours needed: 72% to >91% Sleep efficiency: 85% to >93% Overal Sleep performance: 72% to >90% Excited for an even more powerful version @m_franceschetti !

We're hosting an exclusive event on Physical Intelligence for those working on at the cutting edge of robotics & embodied AI. Wednesday 5/21, 5:30PM @ Sauron HQ

@zebulgar The steps do not count if you weren’t there

@MarcAtiyeh @Walmart @mypawp Congrats @MarcAtiyeh !! Huge news. Excited for you and the team 🚀

It’s official: we are live with @Walmart. Pawp is now a permanent benefit included with Walmart+ 😻🎉🐶 For the first time, millions of Walmart+ members now have access to complimentary, around-the-clock, instant pet care from their phones with Pawp. This launch makes @mypawp the first permanent pet benefit of a massive e-commerce membership program ever. Over 75% of Walmart+ members have pets. The scale of this partnership is explosive, and puts 24/7 pet care in the hands of pets and their parents at a critical time as the cost of veterinary care continues to rise. That means we’re one giant leap closer to realizing our mission of providing convenient and affordable access to healthcare for all pets. We are absolutely pumped to get this thing off the ground. Onwards and upwards 🚀 PS: All American Express Platinum card holders have access to Walmart+ for free (and that means Pawp too)!

Did we mentioned it's built in Miami?

@zebulgar 💯 let's champion moms and make it easier for families to have kids. Cost is the #1 driver. More affordable childcare, flexible work options, subsidized healthcare, access to fertility education / treatment so women can remove the pressure of arbitrary timelines

I wish there was a movement more focused on how to decrease the barriers for 28-38 year old women to have kids even in ambitious careers Housing deregulation to increase supply, decrease costs Federally subsidized parental leave Fertility benefits as a part of employment etc

@m_franceschetti @eightsleep @packyM Let's go! Great read

If you are curious about @eightsleep story and mission, read this piece from @packyM . You will find a lot of insights on how we see the world (and sleep) changing over the next few years. Our goal is to help billions of people improve their sleep and save their life through the power of technology.

At the time of this, I joked that Satish @Redpoint had been on the Midas List 6 more times than me (6 vs 0). Now 7. A rare interview with the rare VC who never VC brags, tweets, blogs, pods. Hear how he invested in Snowflake @ $50m, what makes a great leader vs. manager, and more

@MarcAtiyeh Big congrats Marc and Pawp Team!! 🔥🚀

🚨ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨Today, I can officially announce that Pawp will become a permanent benefit of Walmart+. That means Walmart will make Pawp available for free to all Walmart+ members and their pets.

Most subscription companies don’t realize that half of their customer churn is accidental and can be recovered. @ButterPayments 🧈 boosts top-line for consumer and SaaS businesses by ~10%, addressing this ~$440B problem. @ShenLucinda @axios with more here axios.com/pro/fintech-de…
