Here's what happened to that startup's revenue graph in the next year (in blue).

[Colton Gyulay @cgyulay]

Speak has raised a Series C led by @Accel, doubling our valuation to $1B just six months after our last round! We’re well on our way to transforming the way people learn languages - in 2024 alone our learners spoke over one billion sentences. Come work with us!

[Connor Zwick @connorzwick]

1/ Excited to announce Speak has raised a $78m Series C from @Accel at a $1b valuation!

It' a huge milestone for us and continued validation of our founding idea: AI would fundamentally transform learning. 8 years later, we’re well on our way and believe this more than ever. 🧵

@paulmarvucic @connorzwick Thanksgiving is the perfect time to get ahead while competitors are “spending time with family” or “expressing gratitude”

[Colton Gyulay @cgyulay]

do we think ChatGPT is in the group chat with other LLMs talking about being the bot in the arena

[Colton Gyulay @cgyulay]

@zebulgar The goal is to seize the means of production, not to reduce the Earth’s temperature

[Colton Gyulay @cgyulay]

get ez terms sheets with this one weird trick

[derek guy @dieworkwear]

if you're a young person, ask a middle-aged man what music they listened to in the 90s. let them talk for 30 mins. act interested and say "oh wow no way that's so cool." after that you can ask them for any favor

[Connor Zwick @connorzwick]

1/ Excited to share that Speak raised a $27M Series B, led by the @OpenAI Startup Fund! We're on a mission to make learning a language 10x easier through AI. This partnership greatly accelerates that mission:
