Every product leader is trying to figure out how to bring AI into their product, org, and workflows 🛠️. So we’re (@aunder @LizaGurtin @beh_zod) hosting meet ups to talk about it. Next up is Seattle! If you’re a PM in Seattle, DM us! ✨

We’ve got our next one of these coming up in a few weeks in Seattle, and will be in Austin and SF early this fall. Raise your hand if you’re a product leader who’d like to join us in Seattle!
Last night I hosted happy hour for 40 or so product leaders in NYC. PMs are energized by the possibilities of gen AI, and excited to (re)connect with a community of other product-minded folks. It was a blast. Where should we do our next one?

The ultimate measure of whether our industry is building diverse and equitable companies is found by looking at the ownership structure of a company—the cap table. —@jess

Proud to back the awesome team at @heyequals in their fresh round of funding! They’re going after the heart of the SaaS landscape by building a modern Excel — and when they win, customers and everyone building tools for work will benefit.
Equals is the fastest way for startups to do any analysis. Today I'm thrilled to announce that we've raised a $16M Series A led by @a16z and @kshenster. Plus: @heyequals is now FREE for founders, analysts, and early operators to use. And we're hiring across the board. More...

Our team at 01 Advisors put together this community a couple weeks ago to help the Twitter Alumni Network stay connected as a large number of folks work to figure out what's next. It's active and productive and has already been a great resource for people md15q1upti9.typeform.com/to/…

Today’s announcements from @Color mean a lot to me on a personal level. Mental health issues have that tragic combination of huge prevalence, proven solutions, and low adoption of said solutions. Inspired to see Color take steps to close the access gap. 💕
I'm incredibly excited about @Color's announcement today for our launch in Behavioral Health. As with everything else @Color does, the model is designed to overcome cost and access barriers with a particular focus on public and population health. Some keys to this are:

Best time in 15 years to start a company. Right now.
This may be a great time to launch a start-up, according to venture capitalist Bill Gurley @bgurley. Here's why ➡️ mck.co/3xTcVuC @benchmark

Today, @Ashbyhq has publicly launched with 500+ customers such as Notion, Figma, Modern Treasury, and Duolingo. In addition to building a great product, @Benji and @Abhik are INCREDIBLE founders and are redefining #ATS. Congrats on the Series B!
1/many Today is a very exciting day for the entire @ashbyhq team - so I’m starting it off with an usually long post :) After years of working, mostly in quiet, with our first 500+ customers, we are launching publicly today!

I’m incredibly proud that @TrustVanta raised $110mm from @craft_ventures and existing investors Sequoia and YC. vanta.com/blog/vanta-announc… (Nothing like raising money in April 2022 to really make a growth-stage founder feel alive.)

Grateful to be one of the 75 lucky women backing @heathermirj thanks to her and @karanortman’s efforts to bring women on to the cap table to participate in the journey for @solvhealth 🙇🏼‍♀️. Lots of us working to slay the Gap Table, one company at a time. 💪
I believe in the value of cap table diversity - if I hadn't been on Trulia's cap table, there would be no @solvhealth. As part of our Series C round, we created an SPV with 75 women, 60% women of color with the help of my good friend @karanortman & I want to share the playbook.

Read the full🧵 and the article at top to take in the enormity of what @christinacaci has accomplished in the past handful of years building Vanta. But if you're wondering whether Vanta is right for your company, skip to this tweet. 90% savings, and months of your life back.😵‍💫
Replying to @mariogabriele
3. Vanta is 90% cheaper Seriously. By automating manual work that used to be done by an auditor, Vanta can reduce the cost of getting a "SOC 2" certification from $50K...to $5K!
