✅ Workforce reports now export to external tools on a schedule.

✅ Every bulk data import now has a full history.

I'm a chronic tinkerer of my own schedule and process. Recently it compounded into Nerve, the multiagent OS that runs my life AND Finch (Series B, 100+ employees). 3,000+ brain notes, 145 background jobs, agents running on Ralph loops.🧵

@packyM If quality of output is not a function of intelligence (intensity/level), but of effort expended by a sufficiently capable intelligence, then:

LLMs don't need to be smarter than humans, they just need to be cheaper, faster, more abundant and scalable. Which they will be.

- Generates a free cash flow of ~$1.6B on $8.4B in revenue

- Acquired 52 companies from Apr to Nov 2024.

[Base10 @Base10Partners]

Base10 recently led a round of funding into @ClaspBenefits, an embedded benefits provider. Clasp abstracts away all the complexity of building out benefits administration functionality from scratch.

[Base10 @Base10Partners]

Employee benefits open up new revenue streams for these platforms and enable them to stay competitive against all-in-one solutions that typically bundle HR, payroll and benefits together.

New investment: Excited to co-lead a $1.5m round in Clasp alongside @Base10Partners.

Problem: No HR or payroll platform is complete without employee benefits. But building it is hard.

Solution: Clasp is the “Stripe for Health Benefits” — making it easier for HR, payroll and brokerage platforms to launch employee benefits.

Imagine how hard it is to run a startup that has to successfully pay local & state payroll taxes to reach product market fit

[Eric Stromberg @ericstromberg]

Developers building new payroll apps should focus on what makes their product unique vs. reinventing the wheel on core payroll elements.

That's why we built Check Components: embeddable flows to onboard employees, run payroll, generate reports and more.

Today's internet giants -- Facebook, Google, Amazon, etc -- seem undisruptable.

One argument is that we're at the end of the beginning. They've won, and they'll remain winners.

But I think Web3 might disrupt the Aggregators.

An obvious point that took me way too long to appreciate: in software engineering, you should probably optimize for speed even when you don't have to, because it's one of the easiest/best ways to prioritize subtraction and parsimony in the solution space. https://t.co/kYulYoV3uN.
