A home and a Country Do not lose all hope for us Though faint, some faith I hold The pages are still numbered Some truth can still be told Each day the plot unravels more The author can’t be sane At least we stand united that the other side’s to blame @PoetrySociety

I’m excited to announce micro1 has raised a $35M Series A, valuing us at $500M. This round was led by 01A with @adambain joining our board of directors. We’re grateful to be partnering with leading AI Labs & fortune 10s, such as Microsoft, to train frontier LLMs. We’re just getting started building the infrastructure layer for AGI, with the ultimate goal of answering the very fundamental question: “where should humanity spend its time?”

Infinite teams, infinite markets. Congratulations @tryramp

Today, @tryramp raised $500M at a $22.5B valuation. Finance is at an inflection point. How does an industry change? Gradually, then suddenly. Decades where nothing happens; months where decades happen. Now, we’re teaching software to think like people. Exciting times ahead.

Slope over intercept. From when Ramp raised at a then-crazy-seeming $1.6B valuation.

Last week, @cognition_labs dropped Devin 2.0 last week. This isn’t just dev productivity - it’s the beginning of AI rewriting the core infrastructure of finance, healthcare, government, etc. “AI is not just a wedge - it’s a chisel for legacy itself.” Our breakdown of what comes next: conversioncapital.com/the-future-of-… #fintech #AgenticAI

Introducing Devin 2.0: a new agent-native IDE experience. Generally available today starting at $20. 🧵👇

I’ll be speaking at @tectonicdefense tomorrow! Get there by 2 (link below) South Congress Hotel, 1603 S Congress Ave, Austin, TX 78704

Legacy systems are the enemy of innovation. Vesta is rewriting the mortgage infrastructure playbook, proving that 'the way it’s always been done' isn’t the way forward. Excited to see their LOS push the industry into the future. 🚀 @useVesta #Fintech #MortgageTech

“Investors were most excited when they saw that over half of every dollar that @tryramp puts into payroll goes into R&D. That's just really different. It's what drives the experience where customers today feel that every year they use Ramp it's getting dramatically better. It took us 4 years to save our customers a billion dollars, automate 10M hours of work. We did what took us 4 years earlier in the company within 1, and so it's accelerating.” Thank you @Kr00ney for the in-depth conversation on Ramp

@KamalaHarris is murdering @realDonaldTrump. It’s a bloodbath.

Thank you to @Redpoint for recognizing Modal in the 2024 #InfraRed100 list, which recognizes the top private companies in cloud data infrastructure, for the second year in a row! ❤️ Read the full report here: redpoint.com/infrared/repor…

This is going to be an incredibly high quality event — @rauchg and @leeerob and the @vercel team are doing some of the most interesting work in Applied AI right now, and @koblovinamerica and @nzgb are going to share a lot of interesting work coming through at @tryramp. Join us!

We’re thrilled to announce that ZeroMark has raised $7M in seed funding to bring our 'Handheld Iron Dome' tech to market and flip the script on small drone threats by making our defenders untouchable. Led by @KTmBoyle of @a16z and @jordanodinsky of @GroundUpVC, with participation from @AnorakVentures, @EmpireStateDev, @LudlowVentures, @balajis, and @soona. Details: businesswire.com/news/home/2024…

After wrapping our 20th board meeting last week, @rabois and I joined @HarryStebbings to talk through our partnership in building @tryramp. Harry did a great job and I think this turned into one of the more info dense, useful podcasts for founders we've made. Hope it's useful!

If you're wondering if businesses are trying to a) grow faster or b) get more profitable, the answer is clear -- average ad spend is up 40% year-over-year. Growth is back.

With Ramp’s latest financing, the best investors in the world are betting on what our team already knows: the @tryramp team has barely gotten started. Five years ago, Ramp began as a smart corporate card and we’ve evolved into a one-stop platform for financial operations. What I’m most proud of is the impact we’ve delivered for our customers: our average customer achieves 5% savings using Ramp, exceeding $1 billion so far. Perhaps more importantly, we’ve reclaimed more than 10 million hours of time, so finance teams can shift to more valuable work. Breakthroughs in AI are already helping us dramatically increase these figures. We’ve begun embedding AI and automation throughout our product to deliver even more time and money back to customers, but there’s so much more we can build. We're less than 1% of the market today; I couldn’t be more excited about our opportunity to further empower our existing customers and one day serve the 99%+ of the market we haven’t touched. We’re focused on helping solve a decades-long productivity slump and inflecting the growth curve for the broader economy. It sounds almost unrealistically ambitious, but I know we can do it. If you want to join this mission alongside me, @karimatiyeh, and 725+ of the most talented people I've had the pleasure of working with, I hope you’ll consider joining us.

Today’s technology makes this a solvable problem. When we’re done cooking, the rigor will be automated. 🙌

Does anyone know what this extremely strange looking app is? Seen in Central Park today.

Ramp on the left sleeve 😉 📈
