we bought a lot of silly baby things that we haven't needed

but definitely i recommend a cradlewise crib and a lot more burp rags than you think you could possibly need

[Radhika | Cradlewise @radhikagandhi]

The Cradlewise story — an overnight success… 7 years in the making.
From an idea to getting noticed by OpenAI’s CEO.

Behind the tweet of @sama and the trust in Cradlewise for his most valuable creation, there is a journey that started with a dream to help babies and parents sleep better.

🍼 2018: Prototypes built — for our own kids.

🧳 2019: Moved to China for 9 months to build the first units.

🌍 2020: Started sales in SF Bay Area during the pandemic — moved with 2 kids, 4 bags, no medical insurance.

🚚 2021: Navigated global supply chain chaos and chip shortages.

🇻🇳 2022: Set up manufacturing in Vietnam because India was still recovering from COVID.

🇮🇳 2024: Built our own crib factory in India. Every crib is now manufactured in India!!

💡 2025: Launched in India 🎉. Over 30 million hours of baby sleep powered by Cradlewise.

@narendramodi ji and @PiyushGoyal ji — We’re building a global, connected consumer hardware company ⚒️ powered by homegrown AI.

Designed in India 🇮🇳 Made in India 🇮🇳 Built for the World 🌎

How can @startupindia @investindia @GoI_MeitY @DPIITGoI @sidbiofficial help scale this movement ?

Let’s take Indian innovation to every nursery across the globe.

Imagine being a freshman on Stanford’s tennis team and one day 42-year-old Roger Federer casually shows up to the team practice in street clothes and wrecks everybody

[Renegade Partners @RenegadePtnrs]

Our co-founder @rquintini recently joined a panel of #VC women at #WVCS24 to share her perspective on the industry—from IPOs and #AI to down rounds and self-reporting mandates. Thank you to @jennydhe, Regina Cho, @RachelJHolt, & @kbakes for a dynamic discussion!

@AlyssaJoyJaffee Love it. My grandmother taught me to play poker when I was little and I got my 8 y/o into Texas hold ‘em ❤️

[Emily Chang @emilychangtv]

One of the biggest tasks ahead for OpenAI is building a new board - one that includes women:

The names of several women were floated including @laurenepowell and @marissamayer but deemed too close to @sama. @CondoleezzaRice also considered but dismissed.

We’re told the new board *will* include women but that’s just step one — roundup by @tsgiles @shiringhaffary @ashleevance

[Emily Chang @emilychangtv]

@elonmusk @laurenepowell @marissamayer @sama @CondoleezzaRice Having a deep understanding of AI *and* how it will impact diverse groups of people seems to be important and not mutually exclusive.
