Congrats to @sanalabs on being acquired for $1.1 Billion by @Workday! @joelhellermark and @JonLexa have built an incredibly talented team, a product that is loved and has become indispensable for thousands of companies, and achieved incredible revenue growth as a result. It was a massive win for everyone involved. @maxventuresvc was the first fund to invest in Sana in 2018 when Joel was 21 years old. It's been amazing to watch them build Sana over the past 7 years and we've invested in *every round* with high conviction (thank you for letting us continue to invest!). Congrats to the entire Sana team! 😀

Today marks a defining moment for Sana: We’ve entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Workday. Sana will continue to build Sana Agents and Sana Learn—only now, at an even faster pace and greater scale. I’ll continue to lead our incredible team. Over the past months, we’ve had the privilege of getting to know Workday’s leadership. They are brilliant, kind, and hungry to win. I’m excited to build alongside Peter Bailis, Aneel Bhusri, Carl Eschenbach, Gerrit Kazmaier, and their nearly 20,000 Workmates. Sana has always been about two things: creating a place where people can do their life’s work, and building products that accelerate how the world accesses knowledge. This partnership lets us stay true to that vision while massively expanding our impact. When I founded Sana in 2016, I had just read Organizing Genius and early AI breakthroughs like AlphaGo had recently been released. I set out to build an AI research lab to change how people access knowledge. Joined by a group of pragmatic dreamers, we built a team, a culture, and tools that have reimagined how over a million people learn and work. Thank you to everyone who believed in us—our customers, investors, and most importantly, Sanians. This is a win for Europe, for beauty, for idealism, and for caring more. Now, a new chapter begins. The infinite game continues. Let’s go make history.

Today, we're announcing that @NEA is doubling down, bringing our total funding to over $130 million: sanalabs.com/sana-reaches-1… Back in 2016, Sana was little more than a series of idealistic notes on my phone:
