Othello has raised $8M to train specialized AI models that guide sales reps during live sales calls.

Othello predicts the next best thing a sales rep should say during a call and delivers it on screen in under 500 milliseconds.

Today Microsoft, Capital One, Lyft, and 30+ of the world's largest companies leverage Othello during live meetings.

Until now, it has not been possible to intelligently augment sales calls in real-time. To solve this, Othello has developed a series of specialized models that deliver highly accurate, contextually relevant recommendations while maintaining near real-time latency.

Congrats Sahill and Vineet and the whole team!

Big and very exciting news: @parafinHQ is joining @stripe.

We started Parafin in 2020 because the small businesses that power the economy were the hardest ones to finance. Six years later, with $3B+ funded to 60,000+ SMBs, we're taking the mission to Stripe's scale.

Huge congratulations to our team, investors and supporters. To our customers: nothing changes about our commitment to you. It only gets better from here.

More from me, @vineetgoel92, and the team

@auren My lived experience was more like this

High school was 100% short term memory recall (which I excelled at) and I retained 0% of it long term.

[Ryan King @ryanking]

Very proud of our results and the whole team!

China has invested a ton in energy over the last 25 years. The US has been mostly stagnant.

An abundant future needs abundant energy! It's time to build.

@venkyganesan @MenloVentures Do LPs get to watch / make side bets?

[Ryan King @ryanking]

@mikulaja @noyesclt @mikulaja you aren’t totally wrong — cost of an OCT (push payment) is as @noyesclt described but interchange cost of an AFT (pull payment) is higher. Hence they use ACH and just fake it.
