Accounting for my time spent at @Aqqrue. Prev @getbreakout_ai @Toplynehq @Dream11.
What are humans if not their quests or dreams? Here's another original about a girl who dreams to be a chef. Done in house by brilliant @heydebashis & @heybipasha.
Khosla just gave Ian Crosby $10M to build AI-native bookkeeping. His last startup, Bench, left thousands of customers stranded overnight. He told TechCrunch he can afford to be patient. His exact words: "I've raised years of cash, so we can just wait it out." He'll be waiting a long time. The bottleneck isn't the model. For 10 years, VCs have been calling for AI-native accounting. Pear published a thesis on it. Khosla just put money behind it. YC put it in their request for startups. The technology has arrived. The capital is there. The market is desperate. So why does it still not exist? The QuickBooks API. If you're building AI-native accounting on top of QuickBooks, you can't actually do end-to-end work. The API is intentionally limited. It was built for transactions in and transactions out, not for agents that need to reason across the ledger, execute workflows, and hand results back to the user. Waiting for smarter models doesn't fix that. You could get GPT-6 tomorrow and still be blocked at the workflow layer. The founders who will win this category aren't waiting for the next model. They're rebuilding the general ledger from scratch, with an API designed for agents, not for humans logging in and clicking. That's the actual bet.
Oh hello, @durov Nobody is using Telegram in India for messaging. Telegram is mostly used by scammers in India. Most financial fraud (Billions of dollars) in India happens through Telegram The Indian government should have banned Telegram years ago. It is long overdue. I’ve been noticing the same pattern for years. Almost every fraudster immediately moves to Telegram. it’s harder to trace, easier to operate. Calling this an internet freedom issue misses the point completely. Telegram became one of the preferred platforms for financial fraud, scam networks, betting groups, piracy, and other illegal activities in India.
