Today we're announcing the new Opal to build the operating system for attention.
1 million people already use Opal every single day. We raised $10M.
Personal AGI is coming. The bottleneck won't be access to intelligence.
It will be attention.
A big day as @bendingspoons acquires @Tractive,
their first hardware + subscription acquisition ever!
this is our first major exit and a symbolic one at that:
– European tech champions from Italy🇮🇹and Austria🇦🇹
– both @adjacent v1 investments from 2021(!)
– consumer subs QED :)
Congrats to @icon and @justthethibs for growing Skio so impressively.
Well done @OisinO and Recharge on the deal!
Special for me: one of my first angel investments thanks to @ncsh
My company, Recharge, just acquired Skio for $105m. This is the largest private acquisition in the space ever.
Just 5 years ago I got a crazy phone call that nearly killed us...
Here’s the story I've never told anyone before:
Olto is now shipping to customers in the United States.
We designed Olto to be a new kind of vehicle, a better way for everyone to get around. To celebrate its launch, we photographed almost a hundred New Yorkers on Olto in a single day. Friends, neighbors, strangers, NYC Icons. All shot against a white backdrop, each showing how they'll make Olto their own.
I am very happy to welcome @pmchx to @adjacent!
We started working together when I invested in and served on the Board of Prose for Insight, then Paul became an LP and he has now joined us full time to support our founders.
Took this pic in 2015, his hair game is still strong:
