I'm excited to share that Brev.io has raised a $3.3M pre-seed round, led by @ResoluteVC to build the AI-native layer between business goals and work. Most AI today is doing execution work in a vacuum. Without your goals, metrics, and live progress in the context window, you get motion without alignment -- it's the missing link in a lot of AI deployments right now. As AI drives down the cost of execution, the bottleneck shifts to strategy, coordination, and alignment. That’s the gap we’re building Brev to close. $100 in free credits: get.brev.io/free-100 Learn more: get.brev.io/ai-goals We're hiring: get.brev.io/Join-Brev

Introducing Timeless: the first platform where your conversations build your agents. It records all your conversations, then auto-gathers the right context around a topic (like, user feedback) and triggers multi-step agents that know exactly what to do next. Think fireflies meets n8n, without the effort. Officially open to all users. Except this annoying agent. He’s not allowed inside. Go to timeless.day and try it out. Or, continue wasting your meetings.

Everything is sales. And sales is the art of the follow up. But sellers are overwhelmed, and don’t know where to focus. You’re not losing deals, you’re losing moments. Mixmax helps you catch every one of them, so nothing (and no one) goes cold.

In 2011, @garrytan encouraged me to apply to YC when I ran into him at an event, a nudge that changed the trajectory of my life. Over the course of a few weeks during S11, @paulg and Garry helped us pin down my first startup's onboarding flows - a treasured lesson as a first-time founder. Garry then bet on us via @Initialized's very first fund. Thirteen years later, we finally had the opportunity to work closely together again as one of Garry's companies in W24. We'll be sending out invites soon, so stay tuned. By the way, YC as it currently exists in 2024 is incredible. This batch was intense compared to S11 and S16, and was designed and executed near-flawlessly to help the youngest companies obsessively focus and ship even faster. The S24 application deadline is Apr 22nd. If you're thinking about applying, you really should - there is no better place to start a new project. My DMs are open if you want me to review your application, to answer questions, or if you want to try out jo. BTW, there are at least five YC alum (including another S11 founder!) in this group 3A & 3J photo, which makes me immensely happy!
One of the true pleasures of being back at YC is hand-picking and funding startups myself. Here are my YC W24 founders. I predict very big things in each of their ten year overnight successes 🫡
