Windmill

📣Meet Windmill AI Tool Analytics. Native integrations with Claude, Cursor, and Codex can pull usage per person, per day, and incorporate these stats directly into performance reviews and 1:1 meetings. What gets tracked: - Claude: conversations, claude code sessions, commits, edit acceptance rates, office agent usage - Cursor: agent edits, tab completions, messages by model, MCP tool usage - Codex: threads, turns, credits, token consumption by client AI adoption is finally visible and measurable, without any extra effort.

Introducing the Windmill MCP. Use Windmill from anywhere you already work. Ask things like: → "pull my Linear tickets, summarize them, and add to my 1:1 agenda" → "create a pulse for engineering, nudge anyone who hasn't responded by Friday" → "who are my top collaborators this quarter?" Your AI now has context about your people.

The most important decisions a company makes are about its people. Yet most organizations are still making them based on memory, instinct, and an annual survey. We're thrilled to share that Inspired Capital led @trywindmill's $8M seed round, bringing their total raised to $12M. Founded by @_maxdshaw, @bdistel, and @TarkManner, Windmill is building the context graph for your people: a continuously updated understanding of your workforce that starts with performance reviews that complete in 1/10 the time with 93% employee satisfaction. The signal about who is performing, who is growing, and who is ready for what comes next already exists inside your organization. Windmill makes it legible. Excited to welcome Max, Brian, Mark, and the entire Windmill team to the portfolio! Read Why We Invested: bit.ly/4ucyv7I Read more in Axios: bit.ly/4eLbjJl

We just raised $12M for @trywindmill We believe the AI Doomers have it exactly backwards. In the age of AI, people will matter more, not less. Everyone is about to get massive leverage. The companies that win will be the ones with the right people, set up for maximum success. Work isn’t going to disappear. It’s going to expand. A few voices have been right about this all along: @levie @pmarca @DavidSacks What’s missing is the infrastructure to make this future real. It's not all these dumb HRIS and legacy performance management systems. What companies need is actually a Context Graph for their People. More to come on this, but for now thank you to our customers and investors that backed us in building for a future where people matter more.

Today we're announcing a $12M fundraise led by @InspiredCap, with participation from @PrimaryVC, @fcollective, and @oceansventures. In the age of AI, we believe people matter more, not less. That's why we're building the first context graph for your people: a continuous, cited understanding of your workforce so HR can lead strategically, managers can see their teams clearly, and every person's work speaks for itself.

I'm ridiculously excited to announce the lineup for our upcoming founder showcase for @TheShortlistNYC on Apr 27 at @betaworks This one is extra special. I'm an angel investor in multiple companies on the list. My childhood friend and my partner both work at two of them. And I've known one of the founders for over a decade. These are the founders who are hiring: – @reganjayne_ & Sarah raised $3m to build @rediemco, the platform that turns customers into communities, and communities into brand moats. The work with brands like Olipop and Vita Coco. Fun fact: I went to high school with Regan and have known her for 15+ years. – @bdistel previously cofounded @yext , turning it into a $1B+ outcome (NYSE: YEXT), and is now building @trywindmill. More to come soon here 👀 (I'm also lucky to be an angel investor) – @0thernet raised $28m to build @zocomputer. He was one of the earliest engineers at Stripe and Venmo. He's building the personal cloud infrastructure reimaged for the next billion people who aren't developers. I met Ben a few years ago when the cofounder of Venmo (@iqramband) introduced us, and was lucky to be an angel investor. – @ndrewpignanelli raised $10m to build @intelligenceco, the infrastructure for fully autonomous businesses. Their product, Cofounder, lets anyone automate an entire company using natural language. – @akashmagoon just closed his Series C for @AdonisRcm to fix one of healthcare's most expensive, invisible problems: revenue cycle management. Akash is a successful, multiple-time founder, and they are hiring a TON. – Daniel Kahn raised $7m for Sparrow to help financial institutions build targeted, personalized digital relationships with their members at scale. Come meet them on April 27! Link below.

Your company has its own way of doing things. Windmill now knows it. With Company Knowledge, you can add leveling frameworks, job descriptions and more. → Performance reviews now grounded in your company's standards → Employees stop asking HR the same 5 questions

we're hosting a webinar on 'Claude for HR'! the last one had 3300+ registrants and over 1700 views on the recording since. so we're doing it again april 16th at 2pm ET registration link: to.gowindmill.com/85Dnb5O

we're hiring!

look closely & you might just see @trywindmill 👀

I was wondering who'd ship the first integration with the @meetgranola API... I gave Brian early access at 11am yesteday. By the evening, @trywindmill had publicly shipped a full integration. damn, @trywindmill team 🫡🫡

Our most requested integration is here 🎉 We partnered with @meetgranola to bring your meeting notes directly into Windmill. Your notes now automatically populate 1:1s, Catch Me Ups, and performance reviews. Also, a huge congrats to the Granola team on their $125M Series C!

Windy is now in the platform! Everything you could do with Windy in Slack is now available directly in Windmill. Ask questions, run analyses, generate performance summaries, all without leaving the app. Here's what it looks like in action 👇

Performance review nudges are live in Windmill! You can now send nudges directly from the admin to-do list to anyone who hasn't completed their self-review or manager reviews. No more manually tracking people down in Slack. Select the outstanding items, send reminders in bulk, and get your team across the finish line faster.

Great to see how @trywindmill is making use of Inngest's Connect API. ICYMI: Their new RevOps agent processes leads, summarizes calls, compiles account intel, and answers questions from the whole team in Slack.

We took the team to the Hamptons this week for our company offsite. And yes, we found a windmill. We're hiring. If this looks fun to you, we'd love to have you at the next one.

Introducing Windmill + @clickup 🎉 Your project management activity, now in your 1:1s and performance reviews. How it works: - Task completions and status changes flow into performance conversations automatically - Comments and collaboration activity give managers real context for coaching - Due dates and delivery patterns highlight how your team prioritizes and ships
