Today, we're announcing a $60M Series B led by @BatteryVentures, bringing our total funding to $85M in just under a year. Also joining the round are founders and operators who’ve built generational companies of the last two decades – @tobi (CEO, Shopify), @arashf (Dropbox), @chughesjohnson (Stripe), and more. The round came together in 6 days. Here's why. Every major category in enterprise software is seeing multiple AI-native challengers. CRM, ERP, ITSM – all being rebuilt from scratch by a new generation of companies applying AI to solve persistent problems we couldn’t before. Employee Management (also known as HCM) is the exception. It’s the last frontier, and we believe the most important one. The operating layer to manage people, run payroll, benefits, compliance, and IT, for every company in the world, is still built on architecture that predates AI by decades. This fundraise is the story of how Warp is changing that. The average Warp customer is growing 5x faster than their peers, with 1/10th of the HR and admin overhead. We’re seeing a massive shift happening in how the best companies run their people operations. From the fastest-growing AI-startups to massive public companies, the winning teams are running lean: HR, finance, and ops generalists who automate as much as possible, and use their time instead for strategic work that AI can’t automate. Warp is the platform of choice for ambitious companies operating at this new pace. Legacy HCMs help humans track the work. Warp uses AI to proactively complete the work. Workday was built for the last era. We're building for the next one. And it’s working. We've – - Doubled ARR in Q1 - On track to $2B+ payroll volume this year - Signed enterprise customers with thousands of employees - Launched entire product lines back-to-back: Warp benefits brokerage and Warp Fabric (our AI-native IT automation suite built in-house). A few thank-yous: 1. Our customers, the fastest-growing companies in the world, who trust us with their most critical systems. We wouldn't be here without you. 2. Our team - 50+ people in NYC who've built this platform, taken on the hardest problems in business-critical software. We're just getting started. 3. Our investors doubling down in this round, and some of our earliest believers – @sound_ventures_ (@aplusk, @epsteineffie), @PeakXV, (@arnavsahu341), @harjtaggar at @ycombinator, @balajis, @kevinhartz, @kvogt, @amasad, @HOFCapital (@myfady), @colinevans (@OpenAI) We're here to arm ambitious American companies with Workday-grade power, but with the usability and delight of an Apple product. With this new funding, we plan to fund deeper AI agents, tax and compliance infrastructure, expand our product suite, and support even closely our fast-growing customers. Come join us.

Today we're launching a new brand and website for Warp. Our last website was built 18 months ago. At the time, we had a handful of customers, a small team, and a product thesis that most people thought was a dead end. The feedback in 2023 from investors was consistent: the market's too fragmented, the incumbents are too entrenched, you're betting on technology that doesn't work yet. We didn't listen. Since then, Warp has grown to serve thousands of companies. We've processed hundreds of millions in payments, on track to $1B this year. Companies are migrating away from ADP, Rippling, Gusto. Some breaking their contracts to switch. We went from a payroll product to a full platform: HRIS, payroll, AI tax compliance, benefits, IT, global payroll. The first employee management platform that runs itself. At a certain point, the gap between what you've become and how you present yourself starts to work against you. So we rebuilt everything. The new brand is built around a tension we love: analog precision meets velocity. Technical, but warm. Engineered for performance, designed with soul. Think 1960s racing garage meets modern editorial design. It reflects how we build the product: obsessive attention to the details you never see. The invisible circuit boards are beautiful. We're just getting started. This is the next chapter.

New in Cowork: scheduled tasks. Claude can now complete recurring tasks at specific times automatically: a morning brief, weekly spreadsheet updates, Friday team presentations.

Thank you to 30.000 stargazers!

The lines between pm/designer/design engineer/engineer will eventually disappear The best way to start is to bring things to life and care a lot

Figma is very quickly becoming a huge bottleneck in building products. You build a prototype. People like the vision and buy into it. Then Engineers and Product sit and wait till you deliver the whole spec in Figma. Product & Eng have both become faster due to AI. Design is getting squeezed in the middle with the old way of working.

I built OpenCode in Minecraft TUI? Nah.. MCUI at 200+ fps Build while you build. Vibe while you vibe code

There are no limits anymore. Anyone can do anything. The only limiting factors are agency and ambition. Never has a college degree, work experience, network, even the accumulation of knowledge been worth less. You can just ship things.

imagine having to vibe maintain/debug the piece of software you vibe coded esp if you’re non technical. that sounds like a nightmare.

designers have the highest burnout in software because taste without agency is torture you spend weeks perfecting something just to get it "de-scoped" @cursor_ai means you can finally just make the thing. you don’t pitch it, you ship it!
