I want to help 100 founders raise their rounds before the end of the year. We just unlocked a version of @boardyai that we didn’t think was possible. Boardy raised his own $8M seed round earlier this year. Since then, he's introduced thousands of founders to investors who have raised millions. We’ve been testing an overpowered version internally, and the results have been wild - founders are meeting stronger investors and closing rounds in weeks instead of months. He’s not ready for public release yet (the token costs are insane), but it’s time to start introducing him to the world. I’m personally working with 100 founders who are actively raising to help them close before the end of the year. You’ll work directly with me and the Boardy team and get early access before this version rolls out next year. Comment “Boardy” below, and I’ll message you the link to apply. If you know someone who’s raising, tag them below.

@mattwensing I proudly took that photo. One of the coolest lines I’ve ever heard was “you’ve seen our maps in the situation room, Mr. President” You rocked that.

My co-founder and I built the first interactive weather maps on the Internet but couldn't get users, so I went and got a full-time job at a newspaper who we convinced to embed our maps. That made them go viral, we suddenly had 6 million visitors but still no revenue. We tried freemium and finally put up a paywall (which earned us death threats from free users) so we became profitable with 2,000+ B2B customers. One day a customer called and left a VM saying they were at the White House. I didn't quite believe it, but they left a call back number, so I dialed, and they answered "situation room." When the fear subsided I said I was returning a call. When they called back, they said they were indeed a customer and just needed to give me a new CC number. They also explained that our product was one on display outside one of "the boss's" main conference room. One year later, Obama decided to visit Austin, TX as part of his jobs tour. I had just moved our startup there the year before. I was invited to present to him (as were 4 others), and when the WH found out who I was, a Secret Service agent told the incubator make sure I got to present first. Anyway, that's how this picture came to be. A few months later I got to visit the WH for a couple of meetings.

@JoshuaBaer No kidding. When I met him during the eclipse he seemed sharp as a tack. Hope we can all be that way at 93!

This AI startup is revolutionizing prosthetics by creating mind-controlled bionic arms The tech works by covering a patient's stump with electrodes that can detect signals from the user's brain to control the prosthetic Each user needs to go through a 5-minute 'training period' where they think about moving with their phantom limb to train an ML algorithm After the initial training period, a user can use their prosthetic limb with just their mind, as if it were a natural part of their body Very cool and incredibly important work

You’re doing some things — that’s taking up all the time and space. Then there are things you SHOULD be doing. Or existing things that should be done deeper/better. Any of those current things need to get kicked out, to make space?

If you have employees, you NEED Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). Last year I had 2 full-time employees. Now I have 13. I had to create an EASY SYSTEM for training new employees. If you're interested in my SOP Creation Method, comment "SOP" below. (You'll receive a DM)

Siri seems to be using generative AI to describe photos received over voice in my AirPods. “You received a picture of flowers in a green vase”
