@pitdesi It’s funny when I first saw this I thought it was a parody of Jeopardy where the values were in millions of dollars of valuation based on the different attributes of YC companies. If only there were an easy way for someone to make that ☺️

RT @JustinWaugh: Love this. I’ve been building toward the same idea from another angle with Shikumi: persistent processes on the GPU, each…

When multistage consensus fuels growth, small funds have two ways to invest.

Pre-consensus: find deals before they become consensus.

Consensus: get access to early consensus rounds led by multistages.

At Eniac we do both. Leading pre-consensus and joining consensus rounds.

It feels like everything has changed in venture, but that's not really true. The most important thing has stayed the same. It's still all about the founder.

Agents are only as good as what they can see. Context gives them the whole internet through one API. Knew it the moment we met Yahia and couldn't be more excited to be investors!

[Yahia Bakour @mynameisyahia]

We raised $9M to give your agents the internet.

Led by @generalcatalyst, with @orangecollectv and Robinhood Ventures.

Search, scrape, crawl, monitor with one API trusted by 800+ customers.

We’re making it ridiculously easy to build with web data.

Introducing Hugo: the first human companion robot.

At Boston Dynamics, I was Chief Strategy Officer, bringing robots into the real world.

My co-founder, Farbod Farshidian, led research at the RAI Institute.

Together, 15+ years teaching robots to run, jump, and work.

So we asked: what if robots could connect with people?

Hugo runs on the first Vision-Language-Expression (VLE) model.

He links what he sees and hears to movement, expression, and gesture.

He notices you, reads the room, and reacts in real time.

And he's only the first.

Dynamic Creatures is @BostonDynamics' official entertainment and hospitality partner.

We're building a cast of characters with film studios, resorts, and theme parks.

We built this and will be giving agents access soon. We went through a lot of effort to have a clean product catalog, top tier name brand suppliers that can fulfill within 24 hours. LFG 🔥🔥🔥

A year ago, Goodlabs was in one blood center, one day a week.

Today we're in 19 centers across six states, open 7 days a week, with more than 70,000 people on the platform.

Thank you to our donors and partners for making this possible.

I've been through a few cycles where startups had to focus on being default alive. We are now in one of those. But this time it's 95% of startups. The top 5% have endless money.

@mobileraj My best guess is we see some sort of reversion to the mean in the VC funding environment over the next year but I’m certainly not confident enough in that to recommend founders plan on that happening

[Hadley Harris @Hadley]

@Pinny Not really something I know about unfortunately

[Hadley Harris @Hadley]

@battle4prestige It depends what the denominator is. For every single Startup yes maybe that’s true. I’m talking more about folks that at least raise initial VC capital

[Hadley Harris @Hadley]

@nvaliotti What I’m seeing is it’s nearly impossible for normal sass companies with traditional growth to raise from the usual suspect multi stage VC funds. Companies like that need to look elsewhere if they wanna raise capital

Being someone's option bet is a rough way to start a company. Our strategy is the opposite of this

[Harry Stebbings @HarryStebbings]

Every seed investment is an option bet.

“You have to think about the venture portfolio as a bunch of options. Each seed investment is an option bet.

You are buying an option to see if it is an outlier, and you want to have enough of those to make sure you have an outlier.

When there is true quantitative evidence that it is going to be an outlier, then you position size up.” @venkyganesan

How do seed funds play in a world where mega funds are totally price insensitive and “option bets” is the mindset for seed checks @infoarbitrage @chudson @hunterwalk @honam @dunkhippo33 @jasonlk
