✨Announcement✨ The most significant update in Frame.io's history is coming on April 9th. It's taken us longer than expected but it's Something Worth Waiting For.
We are coming out of stealth today and announcing our $25m Seed Round led by @foundersfund and @8vc with participation from @SimoneSyed, @Quantonation, @hankejh, @JTLonsdale, @C_Angermayer, @mattturck We are creating the future of Material Science. Here's the deck 🧵:

This is how insane Silicon Valley is: 1. build "tech" startup 2. raise billions in funding 3. fail miserably and screw investors 4. get fired and become a billionaire 5. startup goes into bankruptcy 6. buy back startup for pennies You can't make this up.
That's it: I'm quitting freelancing. I don't know if something snapped in my brain or what, but I want to focus on my projects. I warmly thank everyone who purchased something on Uneed this month: it's thanks to you that I have the courage to do this now 🤗
Such is the circle of life
Today at @tryramp, we’re excited to announce our acquisition of @VenueHQ Backed by @sequoia, they successfully built intuitive Procurement, saving customers from manual processes and wasteful spend. We’re taking Procurement to the next level together 🧵 ramp.com/blog/ramp-proc…
We pitched this roadmap to investors 1 year ago They were skeptical, but it's been surprisingly accurate thus far Except for the fact that we didn't end up raising that $3M round 🤷♂️ When we hit $500k MRR, we'll create another ambitious roadmap that VCs will doubt once more 🤠
Nobody asked for a light mode, but for me it is light mode over dark mode any day.
VCs, your experiences are just as crucial. Share your insights, lessons, and perhaps a few war stories. Let's make this space a valuable resource for everyone in the startup game.
