"What's your #1 rule in business?" Here's my answer for @JoinMeow:

@chrishlad 🙏

@brandon appreciate you believing in me pre day 1

We raised a $27M Series A to replace the spreadsheets and human duct tape behind $100 trillion in global assets. Fund administration is the invisible backbone of private equity and venture capital - and it’s broken. Why? Financial data is scattered, stale, and locked inside legacy providers. Books take forever to close. Basic questions about your own fund take days to answer. So we rebuilt the general ledger, waterfall engine, investor portal, and portfolio management from scratch. One single source of truth for your firm. Our AI agents read emails, propose journal entries, and extract portfolio updates in seconds. Our CPAs review every output. Today, we administer $15 billion in assets - and we’re just getting started. Every fund CFO keeps getting asked: how will you adopt AI? Now you have an answer. Run your firm in real-time with @hanoverpark. –- Excited to partner with Jake Saper at @emergencecap @peterjhebert at Lux, @chadbyers/@pratyushbuddiga at Susa and CFOs at the largest private equity firms to forge this future.

Congrats @chrishlad and to the entire @hanoverpark team on the Series A. Grateful to be a small part of this journey. It has been a blessing to watch this company grow.

@chrishlad Invest in people who would rather die than let customers down. And when one of your favorite founders @brandon tells you he’d bet on this kid no matter what, listen!

If you're a founder in NYC, and we haven't met, DM me. Let's meet today.

60° and sunny in NYC during DAS week. @Meow got 300+ applicants for 60 spots at our private dinner with outdoor reception. Apply before we close it: lu.ma/prz3clqs

Persian speakers liked this for a different reason than non-Persian speakers I took some serious liberties translating my grandma

@VeryAI Congrats on this — excited to build alongside you all.

VeryAI has raised $10M to build human verification for the age of AI. We are building the infrastructure to distinguish real humans from bots, deepfakes, and synthetic identities at internet scale. Why does proving you’re real online matter more than ever? 🧵

@itszach @VeryAI Oh, yes.

Every day, the internet feels less human. AI, bots, and deepfakes are making it harder to know who or what is real. @VeryAI was born to solve that. Today, I’m excited to share that we’ve raised $10M to build the first Proof of Reality for the new internet. ↓

.@Meow is the home for prediction markets and gaming. First of many exclusive dinners for the founders building what started as a niche and is becoming an inevitable vertical. Thanks to @Polymarket @BetHog @rithmm_ai @SynthesisTrade @CoinflowLabs @arespro and everyone else who came out 🫡

People think the IRGC is Iran. It's not. IRGC stands for Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Their stated goal is to take over the Middle East and then the rest of the world. Iran is the civilization trapped under it.

@JerimiahLee @bavedikian @tryramp Thank you!

@bavedikian @tryramp Check out Meow or Relay.

It's disappointing that Ramp seems to be pivoting away from small business.  We started using @tryramp in 2024. I love the product and constantly recommend it to others. We were about to upgrade to the paid tier for $15/user/month, which I was happy to pay. Out of nowhere, they mention we have to pay a $5K/year "platform fee" if we want to move from free to paid. My friend is an executive at a public company with a $30 billion market cap. Ramp quoted them a $10K/year platform fee. Why is it $10K/year for one of the largest companies in the world and $5K/year for a small business? I get it if you don't want to serve the small business market. But why sponsor all these podcasts that small business owners like myself listen to if you're pivoting away? The only feature we need that the free tier doesn't offer is the ability to manage multiple entities from one login. As much as I love Ramp, paying $400/month just to combine logins makes no sense when other options do it for free.

@bavedikian @WeddingVenueGuy @tryramp @meow Got you covered. DM'ing.

@WeddingVenueGuy @tryramp @meow @brandon Isn’t meow a banking solution? I’m looking for corporate cards and expense management

@JakeKeuhlen Follow me Set me free

@brandon I still have most of the soundtrack for the first level memorized.

This was one of my favorite games growing up. Incredibly underrated.

Recruiting is meaningfully easier for us for this reason No flashy fundraises needed

The intersection of boring and crypto. Thank you Mohib! Meow is a financial technology company, not a bank.
