We’re excited to lead @wabi's $20M Pre-Seed round.
Software has eaten the world, but there’s still so much software that doesn’t exist but should. Every person’s unique mix of lifestyle, needs, and preferences deserves its own unique software stack. One-size-fits-all apps can’t serve everyone.
Wabi is building the first personal software platform: a creative super app where anyone can make lightweight, shareable AI mini-apps from natural language. Software creation should feel as easy, expressive, and custom as sending a text or posting online.
@ekuyda is a veteran of using AI to build personalized software as the founder of Replika. She started working in this space long before AI apps were cool. Congrats to Eugenia and the entire Wabi team as they build the next phase of consumer software.
Today, we’re thrilled to announce $20M in funding led by @a16z, with support from @saranormous, @amasad, @akothari, @garrytan, @justinkan, @atShruti, @naval, @scottbelsky, @gokulr, @soleio, @kevinhartz and more.
@wabi is ushering in a new era of personal software, where anyone effortlessly create, discover, remix, and share personalized mini apps.
For 50 years, software was made for people.
The next 50, it will be made by people.
Just as YouTube unlocked creative power through video,
Wabi will unlock creative power through software.
The YouTube moment for apps is here.
We can’t wait to see what you create.

I hate to keep referencing The Crown. But the royals' inability to see how Meghan and Harry could sit with someone like Oprah reminds me of the moment Prince Phillip thought he could go on TV and explain why they needed more money from the government to maintain their lifestyle.

@CtSPACula @FREYRBattery They announced on Gamestop madness day and got buried in that story. Great biz, management and tech at a time when the world is moving to EVs.
@kaiwright author of "Follow the Feeling" mentions that a lot of companies are hesitant, because they want perfection. Brands feel they will be judged on whether or not they get it "right" versus the intent. #CommsWeek2020
