I'm on a mission to remove plastics from fashion supply chains, Dressing in plastic (polyester, nylon, acrylic, spandex) has never been the answer. Our bodies deserve nature's intelligence and bio-based textiles.

This week, at least 4 talented people have cold DM'ed me, pitching themselves to work at @newbloomworld I'm speechless.
What if clothes had nutrition labels? 90% of fashion is loaded with harmful chemicals. BPAs. And hormone disruptors pressed against your most absorbent daily. Most “non-toxic” claims are unverifiable marketing language. New Bloom is building a Health Standard for apparel.

8 years in Barcelona spoiled me. I refuse to live anywhere I can’t walk everywhere. Manhattan neighborhood recommendations welcome.

Lately, most of our users at toxicfashiondetector.com are finding us with AI If you're a founder: ask chatgpt or grok what to buy in your category, the way your customer would see if your brand comes up. if you're not in the answer, that's a huge SEO problem you can also use tools like @SeijinJung's agentconversion.ai - I think they'll be the future of marketing
Today, we're introducing Agent Conversion Optimization → agentconversion.ai Muse, Instinct, Grok Bot already process $10B+ a year in GMV via agentic commerce. No GEO tool today tracks who they recommend. So we built it. Each agent behaves very differently from typical LLMs, so we track them separately, then Helena deploys the fixes. 1/ Daily tracking of who Muse, Instinct, Dots recommend, and why 2/ Share of recommendations vs your competitors 3/ Agent path to check out audit 4/ Fixes deployed by Helena to improve your discoverability This is hard to do reliably with little bias given how these agents behave, so we're starting with only 100 initial customers. Demo:

Skincare touches 5 to 10% of your skin. Your clothes wrap 90% of it, all day. @prahaladatreyaa and @prrathamkamath sat down with @rominaramon, founder of NewBloom, at @ns to talk plastic-free clothing, spider silk made in a lab and why fashion needs tech founders.

"Balaji’s @ns playbook is cloud first, land last: build the community online, then find a country that wants it. The last step is the hard one. But this time, what took two years of paperwork in Malaysia took a few hours in Kazakhstan. Governments rarely move at a startup's pace, but this one has done it before." "Astana wants to compete with Dubai as a financial center. The timing makes sense. Since the Iran war, much of Dubai’s illusion of safety has worn off, and the city is seeing its biggest exodus of foreign residents in decades. Kazakhstan has its own card to play. It borders Russia and China and sits in Russia’s CSTO alliance, but its multi-vector foreign policy lets it play both sides: when one gets pushy on trade, it leans on the other for a better deal. And the ambition isn’t empty talk. You feel the economic momentum on the ground. Dubai-level cafes are everywhere. Yandex Go, the local rideshare and everything app, rivals anything in the West. Local heroes include Alex Mashrabov, founder and CEO of Higgsfield AI, Kazakhstan’s first startup unicorn, with a workforce that is roughly 95% Kazakh." @byornoste explains why @balajis and so many others are betting on Kazakhstan. Find the link to the full article in the thread.
seeing a lot of suspicious mentions of traveling to kazakhstan on the timeline…

Got early access to Sol while it's still in stealth. What I love about it is how fast the team ships. It changes every time I open it, like they're actually watching how people work. Here's the waitlist: hellosol.app
3 weeks out of stealth. The one thing early users love most: simplicity. Building AI that finds and does the work reliably is hard. Making it simple to use, dead simple, has been equally hard. We've shipped multiple versions. The data is clear: the simplest one, built on progressive disclosure, beats every other. Lots more shipping soon. hellosol.app
