Huge fan of what Todd Jackson and the First Round team have put together. All of the programs I've done through First Round have been incredibly special 🙌 Highly recommend applying if you're starting a new company.

congrats ben zubin koticha Alexis !!!

.Yuri Sagalov is such a special investor. He’s materially impacted me as a person as well impacted Luminai so deeply. Can’t be more excited he’s officially announcing his fund!

All roads lead to working with the enterprise.

The focus on optionality within the conventional education system, pedigreed institutions, and society destroys outlier outcomes.

The amount of hours spent thinking about immigration issues by insanely high functioning people at the top of their fields probably creates 10s of billions of dollars of lost value every year. It also doesn’t account for the anxiety that comes with it that adds exponentially.

the last thing I worked on took 4 years to announce.

this took ~ a month.

We're thrilled to be part of IVP's enterprise AI 55 list!

Luminai was named a best-in-class AI company sourced by operators for operators, among other companies with considerable momentum.

Thank you IVP! ivp.com/content/ivp-en…

So proud of my best friend tiago sada working 24/7 these past two years for this moment happening tomorrow. Cannot be more excited for you brother.

It feels like big tech’s push back into the office is making South Bay quite a hub all over again. People everywhere. Traffic is crazy. In Palo Alto today and it’s popping.

.Yuri Sagalov is a special investor. We’ve met every single month ever since Luminai graduated YC back in summer 2020. Our conversations span all the way from deep tactical work to personal well being. Thanks for hosting him Pomp 🌪

In @Twitter's early days, I saw something odd.

Many teammates had a hidden talent & were GREAT at it.

The 🦄s in my angel portfolio? Same pattern.

Same Scribble Ventures too.

Thank you Todd Jackson and First Round for having me 🙏🏾 this episode shows how much I love (enterprise) sales and that’s all I want to talk about 😅

I learned about the Thiel Fellowship from knowing of Ritesh and his wild journey building Oyo. It was a full circle moment when we met this week and got to know each other!

Working with Renu Luminai has been amazing! Go listen.

I told an Ethiopian kid that if he got into a Canadian university, i would pay for it. 18months and one civil war later, he got into University of Alberta! congrats to him...human resilience and drive are still alive!!!

I have seen tiago sada and the worldcoin team put their heart and soul into this for the past 12 months, congratulations on the launch 🔥

Beyond these numbers, I think what was unreal was how incredibly kind, humble, hardworking, and supportive everyone is within the community.

🎉 new project: Clarity! A reading app that offers a fresh approach to consuming text. Instead of the traditional linear reading style, Clarity allows you to read depth-first, diving into the details that interest you most.

When we applied to YC, we had a bare-bones idea and it was pretty bad. YC called us out on it during our interview, debated it, accepted us and then helped us research it further to help us eventually pivot to what we’re building today. YC bets on people and stories. Apply!
