8-Bit Capital

Connected capital for the software startups of the future

So excited to launch Autograph today. We raised $2.1M from elite operators, founders, and investors to build a platform that feels like God Mode for Operators.

It's a single platform that integrates with existing systems — the alphabet soup of enterprise software, like your HRIS, ERP, FP&A, ATS, CRM, along with data warehouses and spreadsheets — to combine, clean, and make sense of your data.

This data feeds a series of pre-built apps and agents that allow you to level up as an operator: run your complex, multi-functional workflows 10x better. We're solving the processes that takes forever and is really frustrating, but is essential to operating and scaling effectively: our first few apps are headcount planning, compensation reviews, and sales capacity.

We're moving insanely fast. We're shipping a new app every couple of weeks. Soon, we'll have hiring pipelines, vendor analytics, resource allocation, unit economics, CX capacity, people analytics, and more.

The best part? It's incredibly fast to set up thanks to our powerful agentic data engine, that processes any data source like magic. That means no long implementations, no multi-year contracts.

We think it's the biggest leap forward for operators since the spreadsheet.

Book an 20-minute onboarding to get started!

What happens in Vegas, stays in … the pipeline — we launched ‘Agentic Revenue Recovery’, won the most awards of any company in Money20/20 history (so far), and even beat out JPMorgan and Mastercard in the payments category!

AI-Agents are now creating invoices, processing payments, and even collecting lost revenue. Revenue lifecycles are now agentic workflows and intelligent dunning has finally arrived!

@martymadrid Congratulations team!

As a T1D, I’ve seen how back office work slows care.

Enter @HoneyHealthai — AI staff for the entire back office.

Today, we’re announcing our $7.8M Seed led by @thogg at @Pelion_VP to help providers eliminate the admin paperwork.

[Glue @GlueAI]

Sharing our Series A announcement! 🎉 

$20M invested in building the future of team chat. This funding means more integrations, a smarter agent, and better collaboration between people, their tools, and AI.

[Evan Owen @EvanOwen]

A few years ago Glue started as a wish for an alternative to the chaos of Slack. Now it’s a full platform with multiplayer, MCP-powered agentic AI and we just announced our $20M Series A funding.

We have big plans for this investment, with a clear vision for how agentic AI will massively change how teams get work done—with more focus and less distraction. We're excited to help build this future together.

Thank you to @AbstractVC, as well as @chapterone, @hack_vc, Goldcrest, and @craft_ventures. Plus the whole team at @GlueAI who have been dedicated since day one 🏆

[PropelAuth @PropelAuth]

🚨 We released a new product!

Why? Because we believe that some people should build their own auth.

Existing auth tools aren't meant for everyone. Plenty of companies have been able to build their own solutions that will get them pretty far.

Eventually, there's some feature they need to close a customer. This could be SSO / SCIM for their first enterprise customer. This could be a security audit requiring session rotation or limits on concurrent sessions.

If you look to buy a solution, most auth providers will have you scrap everything and migrate.

And migrations suck.

It means restructure your user data and put it somewhere else. It means a LOT of testing.

In some cases, you may lose functionality that you had previously implemented.

We felt like this was a bad choice. You shouldn't be forced to rip out something that works when all you need is an upgrade.

That's where PropelAuth BYO comes in.

It's an authentication sidecar that's designed to help you enhance your existing authentication without replacing what already works.

It's designed with the features we typically see people migrate to an external provider for.

And it's completely self-hostable so you can keep total control over your data.

It's based off of the years of experience building and maintaining auth for thousands of customers who are selling to some of the biggest companies in the world.

We closed our $3M Pre-seed in three weeks and our $7.2M Seed in two-weeks … it was slowly then suddenly. The suddenly was in full effect as soon as everyone heard that @abrams and @8bitcapital were investing.

Everyone knows Jonathan and his vote of confidence was one of our strongest signals throughout Silicon Valley. He and @kentlind have been incredible partners in helping us think through both the GTM and PMF sides of the business. Also … really fun to play poker with!

[Agree.com @AgreeHQ]

We reached 10,000 users in 3-months, but what was even more exciting, is that 7-weeks later, we had doubled to over 20,000 users!

This massive growth was helped fueled by simply meeting the customer where they are, being in the right place at the right time. And that place is inside of @beehiiv ... in the inbox of our target audience through the newsletters they love most.
