Working with close friends is one of the rare privileges this job gives you. Watching them go from idea to a real ~business~ is an even bigger one.
Proud to call these guys friends. Excited for everyone to finally see what they've been building for the last two years.
Thrilled to publicly announce what we’ve been working on @TryMinervaAI for the past three years! We’re sharing a few things today, but expect more throughout the week!

Announcing our investment in @TryMinervaAI, which is building AI for marketing leaders.
We led Minerva’s seed round because we believed @_jcfe, @TheRealDanSaedi & Matthew Joseph have a rare combination of insight, technical ambition, and earned customer empathy. Our partnership with Minerva has only deepened that conviction.
Congrats to the team on publicly launching today with nearly three dozen customers to date, including @NBA, @juicebox_work, @trustandwill and @wander. Minerva has also partnered with @OpenAI on two technical workstreams using unreleased frontier models.
