Thrilled to announce our new funds - $825M KP 21 and $1.2B Select III to back early stage and high inflection companies. As always post and deck kleinerperkins.com/perspectives/a… Deeply thankful to our founders, team, and investors. We are on the precipice of incredible technology shifts that will transform industries, amplify the power of human ingenuity, and generate incredible economic growth. There hasn’t been a more exciting time for technology. Like electricity, AI is advancing everything. From software, to hardware, to healthcare, to finance and legal, better and more efficient experiences can be built. Human creativity, complemented with machine intelligence can open up new experiences. Imagination is now the only constraint. As technology rapidly evolves, our business, values, ethos, strategy and approach remain the same. Venture is an art and a craft that’s grounded in human connection. Our investment, go-to-market, marketing, talent and operating teams are all in service of helping entrepreneurs make history. The best time to build is now and the future is bright!

Rippling launched its AI analyst today. I'm not just the CEO - I'm also the Rippling admin for our co, and I run payroll for our ~ 5K global employees. Here are 5 specific ways Rippling AI has changed my job, and why I believe this is the future of G&A software. 🧵 1/n

Say hello to the world’s first autonomous mathematician … and he’s free (for now)!
Harmonic@HarmonicMath

🦾Meet Aristotle Agent, the world’s first autonomous mathematician — live and currently free of charge. We designed Aristotle Agent to solve and formalize the world’s most challenging mathematical research problems. It is now: ☑️#1 in Formal Math: We’re the #1 formal math model according to ProofBench, by @ValsAI, ahead of the closest competitor by 15%. Aristotle Agent can autonomously prove/formalize for up to 24 hrs without human intervention. ☑️Fully Agentic: Give it an English problem and it will prove/formalize from scratch, or it can work and edit files directly inside your Lean project / repository. ☑️Github-ready: Aristotle agent produces repo-quality code; project leads are increasingly merging Aristotle-drafted PRs with no modifications. Now live across both web, CLI, and API. 🔥

The best way to find out if your defenses fail is to attack them yourself. @ArmadinSecurity is building the ultimate attacker, using AI to scale the instincts and capabilities of the world’s most elite red teamers. We @kleinerperkins are proud to partner with Kevin, @travis_lanham_ , @evan_pena2003 and the entire Armadin team.
Kleiner Perkins@kleinerperkins

The best way to know whether you’re secure is to test your systems the way an attacker would. That kind of testing has always been expensive, infrequent, and limited to a small pool of experts. AI is raising the stakes even further. @ArmadinSecurity is building a new kind of offensive security platform to help organizations find and fix real weaknesses faster. Excited to partner with Kevin Mandia, @evan_pena2003, and @travis_lanham_. On our @KPGrit podcast, Kevin said making customers happy is the only scorecard that matters. That mindset comes through clearly in what Armadin is building.

Every CISO wants answers to two questions: 1. “Are we secure?” 2. “If not, what do we fix?” @ArmadinSecurity was built to answer both. For 15yrs, Kevin Mandia built Mandiant into the gold standard in cybersecurity, culminating in a $5.4 billion acquisition by Google. Now, with @evan_pena2003 and @travis_lanham_, he’s building Armadin to make elite offensive security capabilities far more scalable. They’ve developed one of the most impressive AI products I’ve ever seen. And today they’re unveiling it alongside their Series A. We @kleinerperkins are fired up to be in business with Kevin, Travis, Evan, and the entire Armadin team as they help secure enterprises in a world where cybercriminals are quickly evolving from human hackers to swarms of agents. More thoughts below.

Some news: I've joined @PaloAltoNtwks to lead communications. For the past 6+ years, I’ve had the opportunity to work alongside founders and company builders in their pursuit of making history. Being part of @kleinerperkins has been the ultimate privilege. The team lives up to its reputation, and earns it every day. It's a genuine reminder of what it looks like to steward something greater than any one person. 🖤 Along the way, I've a front-row seat to the most profound technological shift of our lifetime, and found deep fulfillment working with mission-driven leaders and teams. Joining Palo Alto Networks came down to the team, the moment we're in, and the work ahead. Every organization is figuring out how to move fast, stay secure, and build trust, and I’m grateful for the chance to help tell that story at such a critical moment with such an incredible team. 🧡

Congratulations to @thejamescad, @dbabbs, and the entire @tryprofound team on the Ser C less than a year since the Ser A! A testament to the growth and execution. Every brand will have to deeply care about AI and Profound is on an absolute tear, already helping 10% of the Fortune 500 stay visible. This team ships and is the 🚀 to hop on!
Dylan Babbs@dbabbs

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.

Thrilled to announce that @labelbox is acquiring Upcraft! 🚀 After 5 incredible years building agents that automate smart human-like engagement, this is the perfect next chapter for the whole team. We're pumped because Labelbox is leading the way in data-centric AI and powering the datasets that train the world's best models. Bringing our agent tech to Alignerr means we'll make expert recruitment, onboarding, matching, and support way faster and smarter. With billions pouring into post-training and reinforcement learning right now, expert-generated data is the biggest bottleneck for giving models real human taste and judgment. This move directly tackles that. Huge thanks to our investors for believing in us from the start. @ilyaf and the team at @kleinerperkins, your guidance and support built the team that made this possible. To all our backers, thank you for turning our vision into reality. Grateful for the journey and excited this brings some upside your way. Long term, this feels massive. AI's future depends on combining human expertise with agent-driven scale. As models get insanely capable, compute isn't the limit anymore. It's high-quality, expert-curated data that adds nuance, judgment, and taste. By agentifying marketplaces like Alignerr, we unlock a flywheel: pull in more experts, generate richer data, build better models. It's not just about one acquisition. It's accelerating the path to truly reliable, human-aligned AI. Can't wait to build it with the Labelbox crew!
Labelbox@labelbox

We're excited to share that we’ve acquired @upcraftai to bring AI agents to the heart of how we scale human expertise for frontier AI. Upcraft’s AI-powered automation strengthens Alignerr by helping us recruit, engage, and empower a global network of domain experts who train and evaluate the world’s most advanced models. As leading AI teams invest billions into post-training and reinforcement learning, expert-generated data has become the true bottleneck for injecting models with the taste and judgement that only deep human expertise can provide. A big welcome to @gdcaplan and the Upcraft team and we look forward to building together 🚀

I've had the pleasure of working with @ilyaf since the early Dropbox days and then jumping into venture together at Index. He's world class. Love to see him, @mamoonha and the rest of Team KP getting the recognition they deserve! 🔥

I have the great privilege of serving on Boards with each of @mamoonha @ilyaf and @johndoerr and they are first class, through and through. Mamoon is probably the best investor of our generation, and an incredible human being to boot. It is truly a pleasure to see KP right back on top under his leadership.
