You don't need to open 6 different tabs to learn things anymore.
This weekend, my team and I placed 3rd at the @neo hackathon for building Rabbithole, a way to structure your deep dives so your curiosity compounds instead of distracts.
Check it out. Would love your feedback👇

We launched @CompositeAI eight weeks ago as the first autopilot for your browser.
Since July, thousands of professionals across hundreds of companies including Tesla, Salesforce, Google, Uber, and DoorDash have trusted Composite to eliminate digital browser tasks.
So they can focus on high-leverage work.
From moving tickets, to researching across internal sites, to pulling data or dashboards, Composite is the single best way to get work done in your browser.
Today, we're thrilled to announce our $5.6M seed round from NFDG, Anthology Fund (@MenloVentures + @AnthropicAI ) and dozens of incredible investors and angels.
We’re also keen to share three massive updates to Composite that transform how you work:
1/ 🔎 Spotlight View
2/ 🧠 Personalized Suggestions
3/ 💻 Available for Mac AND Windows
Other AI browsers force you to abandon your existing setup.
Composite works in the browser you already use to immediately take tasks off your plate.
Cmd + Shift + Space on any website. Instantly.

We sold @styl_app :)
As I look back on the last 2 years, I can’t believe how blessed we’ve been.
Even though Rahul and I never ended up building a male version (so we could never use the product ourselves), the love and support we’ve received from our community of users always pushed us to work through sleepless nights.
Even though we’d been rejected through 4 cycles of accelerator applications, we frugally hustled. Whether it was surviving on canned tuna sandwiches, manually placing orders so users could have a seamless checkout experience or recording the most embarrassing videos to hack our way into virality— the scrappiness made it all the more special.
Even though we’re just 2 kids who grew up playing Tennis together in India and somehow landed up at Duke together, we’ve had this crazy journey with a lifetime's worth of stories and the support of incredible people without whom this would have never happened. Dev, Lokesh, Aditya, Maya, Rayan: thank you for believing in us even when nothing seemed to be working.
It is such an honor to be acquired by a figure in Silicon Valley we’ve always looked up to and the generation-defining companies he’s built. I wish I could share more, but it’ll have to wait till we come out of stealth.
I graduate this semester and Rahul is taking time off Duke. We’re headed to SF to continue working at the intersection of e-commerce and AI and are hopeful this product will truly be paradigm-shifting. Something we’ve dreamed of giving our users all along. Something the world has never seen before.

@KrishivThakuria @fdotinc Fire reflection. Could you elaborate more on the SF bubble? What unimportant things are valued in SF that aren’t valued/seen as dumb in other cities?

What building a startup in San Francisco actually looks like:
I've spent most of my summer at Founders, Inc.'s residency for university students and new grads building their own companies.
Founders Inc was a place where I could deep work for 10+ hours a day next to other ambitious young people.
We also had mentorship sessions with Furqan and Hubert to accelerate our progress.
If you're planning on going to San Francisco for a while, here's my advice:
1/ Be open-minded, but don't get distracted from your mission
This city has thousands of events a year (sometimes 10 a day). It's easy to get distracted going to event after event and then justifying your time spent by calling it "networking."
I personally think "networking" is overrated.
I think focusing on doing great work, and tweeting about it so the public sees + sending high-signal and targeted cold messages will get you further than sacrificing your ability to do great work by constantly going to events.
2/ Remember that SF and its communities are bubbles
I feel like a lot of founders in SF have trouble socializing with non-founders from the rest of California.
Because your environment shapes who you are.
When you're in a community with such like-minded people, you lose out on insights from the rest of the world. A good analogy here is reading.
A lot of "hustlers" will only read self-help books and stay clear of fiction. If you're like that, let me offer you this quote:
“Reading isn’t about putting information in your mind. Reading is about sparking a fire in your mind” - Naval Ravikant.
Books aren't about getting info, it's about sparking new thoughts in your mind. I think entrepreneurship is the same.
3/ Pay it forward and be kind
I can't prove that karma is real, but what I can say is this:
SF is small. Both in population and in size (it's only 7 miles x 7 miles). Word gets around quick.
Before even thinking to wrong someone else, think about how what you do will come back to you.
Your reputation isn't your number of followers - it's what people say about you in the group chats and the other places you can't see.
I got so much help to make my time in SF a reality, and I'd love to pay it forward.
If you're thinking of going to SF or need help getting there just send me a DM or reply and I'll try my best to help!
p.s here's a pic from our demo day at Founders Inc!
