This is how @OpenAI reps sign their emails

I feel like "Tokenmax responsibly!" might be more fitting but what do i know.

If Sazabi doesn’t work out, Sherwood could certainly explore a career in marketing…

But in all seriousness, killer product, killer team and an awesome founder at the helm.

The sky is the limit!

[Sherwood @shcallaway]

We raised $8m to build self-healing software.

In 2026, software moves fast.

But monitoring and observability are still manual and slow.

@sazabi is a next-generation observability platform for fast-moving engineering teams.

Not another AI SRE.

Not another LLM observability tool.

A new, general solution to observability that works for any workload (including agents) and leverages AI for maximum speed and automation.

Time to suit up.

Still can't believe a $2.5 trillion company released a product called:
"Copilot Cowork"

@vinvan Harsh lighting/non-cozy lighting is actually pretty peak for grinding tho - don’t want it in my home, but pretty decent for office space if you’re trying to work all night

[Michael Moore @michaelmoore_sf]

@arseniycodes @MarshallJGould Oh shit I didn’t know you climb Arseniy!!!

I’ll be headed back down to SoCal but will return soon! 🧗‍♂️

@abelsimon123 @CamiloBAcosta I'm 35 and in current batch and know guys with 10+ years on me, don't listen to this guy! get after it :)

[Michael Moore @michaelmoore_sf]

@CamiloBAcosta i can attest, some of us our older - 35 over here and i know at least some folks that have 10 years on me!

@TheChowdhary We should talk - did I miss you at alumni demo day?

[Michael Moore @michaelmoore_sf]

@litcapital Can someone explain why bro never put his phone away?

[Michael Moore @michaelmoore_sf]

@shcallaway @jasonfreedman @davecyen @jeffbyun Takes one to know one! 😉

[Michael Moore @michaelmoore_sf]

@brettcalhounn You coming to demo day?!

[Michael Moore @michaelmoore_sf]

@jasonfreedman nailed the Akkari thesis.

The biggest B2B companies don’t just make teams faster - they change how they operate...

We're building for customer teams who want software that does the actual work.

Grateful to have @orangecollectv backing us! 🚀

[Jason Freedman @jasonfreedman]

$100B+ B2B outcomes always share something in common: they fundamentally transform how companies actually work. And they do so by building something that the previous players couldn't do - even if it's staring right at them.

@jeffbyun, @michaelmoore_sf, and Henry Lee are building a company that is a $100B+ vision. They're transforming companies to become customer centric.

This was not possible before.

Today, each department of a company needs a piece of software to help it run. And each forms its own source of truth. The software matches the people that signed up for it.

We call this Conway's Law: Organizations which design systems are constrained to produce designs which are copies of the communication structures of these organizations. - Melvin Conway, 1967

The result?

A customer reports a bug in Slack. A CEO promises a pricing breakdown on a call. A prospect asks the same security question three times. An engineer ships the fix, but nobody tells the customer. A champion is ready to expand, but the blockers are scattered across email, Slack, Linear, and meeting notes.

There are dozens of unicorn and decacorn sized companies serving these departments. There's not going to be a single company that comes in and does everything that these specialized teams do...so the non-customer centric org chart persists and gets projected into non-customer centric data/technology stacks.

For 50+years, the only real solution has been visibility systems. Ways to see into each silo. Ways to copy the data and warehouse it. Ways to run reports on it.

But AI makes execution possible. AI makes it possible for agents to use the systems that are already there. Read 100s of meetings notes. Read the customer support threads. Read the PRs.

AND THEN EXECUTE.

That's Akkari and they're in this YC batch.

Akkari drafts the reply, files the bug, schedules the meeting, opens the PR, sends the customer the update when the fix ships. The job is no longer to read the summary — it's to review the action.

Orange Collective is all-in on this team, this product, this problem.

See the comment below for our Memo.

We've known Jeff and team since their first YC batch 15 years ago. They sold OrderAhead to Square, built BLADE to $1B+ in monthly trading volume. This is a high power team.

Honored to be on their journey.

@arseniycodes Hi batchmate, following up in Slack - might be building this! 😉
