🚨 BREAKING: Super excited to announce we're deploying the world's fastest inference with @Cerebras. Talk to any developer and they're excited to build with 20x faster AI... the problem is there's almost no compute available. We're here to solve that. Using GPUs for prefill - it's now more affordable than ever too. Thank you to the whole Cerebras team and excited to grow this partnership. First tokens live Q127 🚀

BREAKING: Manny Medina, Co-Founder & CEO of Paid, & former CEO of $4.4B, Outreach, joins me in London to discuss the $19.9T AI agent opportunity. Roughly $300 billion in SaaS revenue is “trapped” inside legacy pricing & delivery models After scaling Outreach from scratch to 6,000 customers, 220,000 active users, & $250M in ARR.. Manny (@medinism) saw firsthand how traditional SaaS monetization models break down when software shifts from user-driven actions to agentic systems performing complete end-to-end workflows. He founded @paid_ai to close this gap. Early customers have already reported 20–40% revenue growth within six months of adopting the platform. With $33.3M in total funding, Paid is backed by @sequoia, @lightspeedvp, @eqtventures, @gtmfund, & FUSE. (thank you to @HackItMax at GTM Fund for the intro!)
