Today, @tryprofound is excited to announce our $96M Series C at a $1B valuation, led by @lightspeedvp with participation from @sequoia, @kleinerperkins, @mattevantic, @saga_ventures and @southpkcommons. When we started Profound 18 months ago, we had two fundamental beliefs about where marketing is heading: 1. Every company will care deeply about how AI talks about their brand. 2. Every marketer will use AI Agents to do their best work, faster. Those beliefs are becoming reality faster than we imagined. Now, we serve more than 10% of the Fortune 500 and are the number 1 leader on the G2 grid for AEO. To double down on that momentum, we’re taking two big swings: 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀: AI workers that take marketing teams from concept to execution. 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆: certifications and cohort-based learning for marketers who want stay at the forefront of AI marketing. Reply with 𝗔𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗧 for free access to one of our most popular agents. No account required and no strings attached.

@dbabbs @sequoia congrats 🚀🚀

Today we're announcing our $35M Series B led by @sequoia to build technology that connects brands with one new customer: Superintelligence. Customers don’t turn to Google blue links to decide what to buy anymore. They ask ChatGPT.

@altcap @InvestAmerica24 Awesome to follow this initiative over the years and see it succeed! Congrats!

The INVEST AMERICA ACT. Passed July 4, 2025. Accounts established & funded July 4, 2026. Because every child deserves to share in the upside of America. Happy birthday America! Never perfect. Always rising.

What are the vibes going to be like for the second half of the 2020s? Something like this, accelerate.

(and @satyanadella proves yet again why he is CEO of one of the planet's most important private sector companies....and how $MSFT's share price gain over his tenure is an output of his leadership)

and love this energy.

Love this energy

@sama and entire @OpenAI are world class. What matters is what happens next!

@_Sarah_Du @stoicapp we bout to find out the stoic TAM (which im also in), arent we!

smart design to open with this after my app crashed - turned my annoyance to amusement right away All about framing @stoicapp

The value of a "10x engineer" is plummeting... W/ GitHub Copilot only recently crossing $100M ARR, the effects of LLMs on software development are still not yet emerging...one of my top predictions is the end of bloated SWE salaries ($450K+) for SWEs working <=30 hrs / week

The @UMichFootball defense argument (against sign stealing) is essentially to “cherish life and culture.” Double-click: Every college football game is a natl/regional cultural artifact. Stripping a top 3 team of its coach in a “football renaissance” for UMich sports is unjust.

#nbaphilosophy @StephenCurry30 and @MagicJohnson should be studied as extensively as MJ - how to be a winner and diplomat of your craft with joy. Diplomats of the game. MJ was a terminator in the truest sense, and played with an anger (pain?) in which he had to dominate.
