🎉Meet the quietly thought provoking venture firm: @bek_vc
Though the name may change, our strategy and team -backing a concentrated portfolio of founders who we believe in and are committed to relentlessly supporting - stay the same.
Meet Bek Ventures! 🚀 The best-performing VC fund globally has a new name.
Introducing the quietly thought-provoking venture firm. We’re excited to build on the legacy we have established during our decade as Digital East Fund (ex-Earlybird).
New blog: How Context7 improves itself
Most people think Context7 is just RAG for docs. It's more.
When the docs can't answer a question, Context7 runs an agent to read the source code — and saves the answer to the vector db. So the next person gets it right away.
The more it's used, the better it gets.

@Codie_Sanchez This is already happening.
“Boring” businesses are where it works best. Wrench Group and A1 are rolling this out across brands. The problem is most owners just don’t realize how much revenue they are leaving on the table

I am delighted to confirm that the Digital East Fund will be launching with our own distinct brand in the fall. This is a chance to double down on the focus that has enabled our success this far and I can’t wait to share our new brand with the world soon.

Today we're thrilled to introduce Jace, your AI employee.
Jace goes beyond AI chatbots by being able to handle longer-running tasks and taking actions in the digital world.

This allows it to handle real-world tasks like researching and booking flights, handling a hiring process, or even setting up a company.
We can't wait to see how Jace will help you! Join us at https://t.co/sKKzitHFYM
