Together with Tinder, we built a product to help get out the vote in the 2016 election. Here’s the story: This all went down at our last company, Wedgies. Wedgies, for those who aren’t familiar, was a polling platform we built in 2012 to disrupt the survey space. We built and sold Wedgies from the ground up — at once point we were collecting over 10 million votes per month for organizations like The Obama White House, Wall Street Journal, Crunchbase, USA Today, and dozens of others. Fun fact — 7 of Codingscape’s team members were a part of the Wedgies team. So, let’s take things back to 2016. After working with the White House to help them build polling technology for the 44th State of the Union Address, Tinder reached out to us. They wanted us to build a special activation in their app that would match users with political candidates based on how they felt about different issues. Why? It was the first time in history that essentially all millennials were old enough to vote. Here's what Tinder had to say in their blog post about the activation: “Millennials will play a larger role in this election than in any other – from the big decision to the global conversation – which is why we’re bringing Swipe the Vote to our users around the world.” At the time, Jimmy Jacobson and I were helping hundreds of journalists with polling on their articles. This would prove to be huge in the political world. And now we could take it one step further - using our technology to help propel democracy forward. Getting MORE people out to vote. We were stoked. First the White House, now Tinder wants to work with us? Hell yeah! This activation would give users the opportunity to swipe on some of the most important issues facing American voters, from immigration to climate change. It helped activate a lot of young voters in the election cycle. The campaign would eventually turn into a product, but that’s a story for another day.

Sad to read the news that Workplace from Meta is going to be sunsetted next year. A lot of great companies achieved amazing things with it - not least some awesome ideas programs. Some of the highlights over the years for me include; - How proud the whole team were to support Nick De Blasio and the team at Nestlé in launching their InGenius ideas program on Workplace - Working with Stephen Lee and Irene Scardia to run Spark across the globe at Discovery Inc - Hustling to go from first meeting to launch to over 40,000 people with Scott and Justine (and later Alun) in about 2 weeks for AstraZeneca's award-winning AZ2025 campaign - Working with the partnerships team at Facebook/Meta on a really productive partnership (often over those lovely office lunches ;)) that began with Armin leading the way - Working with an absolutely huge (but shy) retailer to give a voice to millions of in-store colleagues Though the vast majority of our customers now use our apps for Microsoft Teams and Interact Software, we're here to do everything we can to help those still using the Workplace integration to minimise disruption as they navigate the path ahead. We'll be opening up our Teams and Interact Apps to those currently using Workplace, and connecting the dots with the Interact team who can help companies now scrambling for an alternative. Photo from one of the early and very swanky Transform events. Thanks for the memories - the only thing constant is change - onwards and upwards 💡

A really interesting and powerful performance management practice. "Use the “30-day test” to maintain a high-performance team. Create a reminder to ask yourself this question 30 days after someone joins the team: “Knowing what I know today, would I hire this person?” If the answer is yes, tell the person you’re excited about them and give them more equity—you’ll gain a lot of loyalty. If the answer is no, you need to fire them immediately, to avoid the inevitable damage they will cause to you, your team, and themselves." from Uri Levine Founder of Waze, via Lenny's podcast. https://lnkd.in/gyS2HzZP

RevenueCat just raised $12 million and launched a new product: RevenueCat Billing. RevenueCat Billing lets #developers integrate subscription purchases directly into their websites. This opens up new possibilities for monetization, especially considering the recent changes in the app store landscape. This expansion to web billing is exciting! Here's why: ➤ The timing is perfect, coinciding with the EU's DMA forcing Apple to open up the App Store. With Apple's potential restrictions on in-app purchases and the 15-30% commission fees, developers now have the option to offer subscriptions directly on their websites using RevenueCat Billing (a new web SDK). This provides more flexibility and potentially higher profits. ➤ What makes RevenueCat's solution attractive is its focus on developer needs. With the EU potentially allowing developers to steer users from apps to web for payments, RevenueCat Billing empowers developers to bypass App Store restrictions and potentially offer lower prices or more flexible payment options on their websites. Even if you use other payment processors like Stripe, RevenueCat integrates seamlessly, offering a single dashboard for managing all your subscription data, regardless of source (web or mobile). This simplifies tracking and analyzing your app's overall monetization strategy. ➤ Potential for New Markets: RevenueCat's expansion to Japan and South Korea opens doors for developers targeting those regions. Overall, this is a positive development for mobile app developers. RevenueCat's web expansion offers greater control over monetization and valuable data insights, all while potentially reaching new markets.

Thrilled to share our first acquisition! Blockworks has acquired The Breakdown Network. Michael and I first met Nathaniel in 2018. We had just launched Blockworks, and he had just launched one of the early crypto newsletters. In 2020, when we started building our editorial department, we had countless calls discussing how to build a proper crypto native media brand. Over the years, we've seen Nathaniel elevate The Breakdown into the most trusted daily podcast in the industry. What sets The Breakdown apart is not just its frequency (6x/week) but its depth. It delves into macro, geopolitics, and major power shifts, always framing these discussions within their implications for the crypto world. This acquisition marks a big expansion of our podcast network, enhances our advertising capabilities, and broadens our distribution channels. It also strengthens our ability to cross-promote our events and research, furthering our commitment to delivering top-tier information to crypto professionals and investors. Looking ahead, our plan is to establish The Breakdown as the flagship daily podcast of Blockworks. NLW will continue to lead The Breakdown podcast as its host, and we'll add others from our editorial team over the next couple of months. We'll also do something with the Bitcoin Builders podcast – more on that soon. Feels like a dream come true to be able to work so closely with NLW. This is a big step forward for Blockworks, I'm excited about all the opportunities that will come from this. Onwards! https://lnkd.in/gKq9uszp

The Neighborhood Studios team spent the last few days thinking about our new idea pipeline and its output. Tons of thoughts on this after being in a venture studio for 2 years. Here are some summary stats... - 1,750 new (raw) ideas considered per year. - 110 of those are given a second glance. - 66 of those are seriously considered. - 10 of those become experiments...real products in the hands of customers. - 2 of those are spun-out into studio companies. What the studio team has been discussing over the past few days is that 66 number. That's the number of ideas that 3 people on the team can dig into every year. Venture studios can be perceived as a "startup factory"...an engine to launch startups. The reality is that venture studios are a machine to invalidate ideas. We invalidate many more ideas than we validate. We touch 1,750 ideas per year, seriously dive into 66 of them, build experiments for 10 of them and only launch 2 of them. All that work turns into 2 studio companies per year that have a way higher success rate than the average startup in the wild. Said another way...startups are hard. Talk with Tapan Patel Gabe Hart Whit Anderson IV Jonathan Brinson if you wanna talk about this. They are world class.

This weeks Mojito newsletter hits--especially these 2 points, which is how we're thinking about Moxies - If Roblox is a sandbox for brands and Gen Z, onchain metaverses enable users to take those personalized brands assets (i.e., avatars) with them, anywhere. - If AI and web3 are key tools for the future of brands, don't build them in a vacuum; cohesively implement them into your tech stack Do any of these resonate with you & what you're building/working on?

Stability AI, a startup that rode the boom in generative artificial intelligence to a $1 billion valuation before experiencing financial trouble and employee defections, has a new CEO. Prem Akkaraju, former CEO of visual effects company Weta Digital, will step into the role. The 51-year-old Akkaraju is part of a group of investors including former Facebook President Sean Parker that has stepped in to save Stability with a cash infusion that could result in a lower valuation for the firm, which develops products that use Stable Diffusion, an open-source AI image generator. The new funding will likely shrink the stakes of some existing investors, who have collectively contributed more than $100 million. https://lnkd.in/egevkxv3 #artificialintelligence #ai #stabilityai #venturecapital #fundraising #startups #stablediffusion

Wei D. (Founder and CEO of unicorn Clipboard Health) dropped some major 💎 gems of wisdom during her fireside chat with PearX founders at Pear VC SF Studio yesterday. These really resonated: 💎 PMF isn't something you achieve once - staying relevant to your market is an ongoing pursuit 💯 (Wei shared that to date she still LOVES talking with customers and - even at 1000+ employees and with all the success already achieved - she continues to chase unlocks for the business and recently obtained her nursing assistant certification in order to stay close to users and unlock new insights with them 🥇) 💎 If you're scared of sales, don't think of it as sales -- you're just talking to someone who you're trying to help. Approach your customers with care and listen to them as you would a friend. The moment it's an actual conversation with a friend, that's probably where you're going to get your first sale. If it feels "salesy" you're probably not doing it the right way. 🤝 💎 Do whatever it takes to get in front of your customers! (For Wei this meant driving around at 8 months pregnant and walking up to DMs at nursing homes!) 🚗 💎 The users you speak with in your market will give you the key jargon you need to use to speak back to your market. Listen intently and adopt their language! 🗣 💎 There is little you decide that can't be undone. Be smart, make calculated decisions, but don't overthink things --- err on the side of action and quick decision making. 🏃♀️ 💎 Iterate until your users feel passionately about what you're doing (ie. they get angry when the product is down or doesn't work). You want your users to care A LOT about the problem you're solving. 😡 Wei's resilience, grit and work ethic are off the charts. What an inspiration! 👏 #femalefounders #inspiration #techfounder #unicornfounder #hero

As people navigate the world of venture studios, I thought it'd be interesting to interview those with experience. Recently I caught up with Brian Bemiller, Innovation Engine Leader at 1848 Ventures, backed by Westfield. 1848 Ventures is a corporate venture studio building new B2B SaaS businesses targeting SMBs. They're specifically not building insurance companies, despite their parent, Westfield, being an insurance company. It's an interesting and proactive strategy. Brian was 1848 Ventures first employee, who previously worked at Westfield. He's seen a lot as the studio has built and launched several ventures, iterated on its validation process, hired a bunch of people (they're hiring today!) and more. Here are some highlights from that interview: Q: Why did Westfield decide to launch 1848 Ventures? There are two long term outcomes we target: (1) direct financial value from the income generated from ventures that we launch; and, (2) the indirect financial value that we generate for our parent company, Westfield, via access to new customers and data. Two examples of ventures we’ve launched, which we’re now scaling are TakeUp and Vandra. Q: Can you describe how your process works for creating new ventures? There are two distinct parts of our organization. The first is the early stage venture creation “engine” that starts with market exploration in one of our core industries of focus (retail, restaurants, hotels, real estate and construction) and progresses through customer discovery and business model ideation and de-risking through hypothesis driven, in-market testing. Throughout these phases, many alternative problem spaces and business model ideas are explored and tested. Many of these are ultimately shut down or significantly pivoted. For those that progress through the initial hypothesis driven, in-market testing, the venture is transitioned to an experienced B2B SaaS leader to carry the momentum forward into early customer acquisition, product launch/go to market, and the original team heads back to the beginning to restart in a new space. For those ventures that experience early indicators of future success (initial customer acquisition, customer feedback, market understanding, etc.), a Seed investment is made to drive additional customer growth and progression on the journey towards product market fit and scale. Once that investment is made, funds are leveraged to build a team around that specific venture and execute a Seed investment plan, iterating along the way informed by learnings from customers and the market. Q: Why do people join 1848 Ventures? For many, a corporate venture studio represents an opportunity to do the kind of work they're passionate about without the challenges and time commitment of raising capital. So many individuals on the team have come from other venture studios or the VC-backed startup world & enjoy operating and continuing to grow their skills via new and diverse experiences.

Lately a few companies in the Collectibles space initiated a few new programs pushing towards targeted customer segments with some live ops. I love seeing this, but think many are missing a bigger opportunity -- opportunity to engage the broader Community that is at the heart of amplifying the "hits" -- many never spend but contribute by watching and creating content via reposting. This is a very critical aspect in a collectibles total value. A value that I think its made up by the actual collectible, its provenance, and the community "amplifying". To me this is the BIGGEST area untapped in the value creation. Events should target this segment as well to enable them with tools to amplify the reach organically, which reinforces the collectible and the events. However, PSA's latest 'event' that is created for the Nationals is a great step forward. They are targeting existing collectors' core 'loop' of collecting. In this case, vaulting or submitting a card -- these are engagements they do without any incentive, but for the Nationals, you get an entry to get a spot in a break with industry known figures, in this case Collectors execs. What I like: - They are giving added 'value' or 'utility' to a collectors normal collecting habits -- great way to create extra incentive - They get the potential to get additional items from valuable vintage sets which is a good 'chase' item to give a real value What I think is a missed opportunity: - They give you a chance in a break with PSA execs, which is fine, but I think it would be a stronger event if they had it with a key player from the sets they are giving you a spot in -- that gives a stacking value multiplier on winning a spot and with a key player relevant to it, and the chance of pulling the key hit -- this is a much bigger potential 'event' to activate the community to amplify vs. execs - They should consider broadening the event to include a spot for folks just viewing or attending in person or online -- some streamers do a good job of creating volume by scheduling programming that does giveaways every 5 minutes to keep folks engaged and create a bigger 'event' at little cost But overall, I love the industry (Collectors, Fanatics, Whatnot, Panini America and the #thehobby) for trying. For the full details of the event: https://lnkd.in/gU4aRSeH

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐟 𝐚 𝐟𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐨 This past Monday, I had the incredible opportunity to demo and pitch Jammy to over 100 investors at NY #TechWeek AI Demo Day. Two weeks ago, thanks to Cindy Berman, I found out about the event and hesitated to sign up, doubting our product’s readiness. However, I saw it as a chance to push our limits. After a screening with Shriya Nevatia we were one of eight companies chosen, and I had to figure out how to demo our work-in-progress app and deliver an eight-minute pitch. I prepared thoroughly and felt confident. On the day, Dorothy Chang informed me I’d be the first presenter, which made me both nervous and excited. The pitch went well until the live demo. When showcasing Jammy’s ability to recommend post-session music, the integration failed despite my preparation. I still finished the presentation, landing the vision for Jammy and with congratulations and consolation from my peers: “live demos always break,” they said. It helped. Though I didn’t win the $50K prize, I secured a check from an angel investor, generated interest from several others, and met amazing founders in AI. The winning pitch went to the highly deserving CAPSULE, who is set to revolutionize contextual visual shopping search (like Shazam for shopping). Very cool. This experience highlighted the value of taking risks and the importance of failing forward. It also reminded me of the supportive NY Tech and entrepreneurial community. The journey can be lonely, and many dismiss community events and networking as distractions from the "real work." While that might sometimes be true, Monday night was a reminder that we’re not alone in this journey. We all want to see each other succeed in building the - extremely AI-infused - future we envision. On to the next challenge! And definitely check out these amazing companies & founders: Glist, Gülin Yilmaz (Posokhow), Path, Soar.com, Abood Hannoon, DeepLeads.ai, pre.dev, and In The Loop

"Let's get out of this town, drive out of the city, away from the crowds..." 🎤 "Wildest Dreams" by ofc, Taylor Swift! In today's overwhelming data deluge, finding that voice means differentiating the signal🚦from the noise 🎵. Denise Stokowski, SVP, Product Management at Gainsight, shares how AI is not just assisting — but revolutionizing — our interactions with software today that saves time: 🔄 AI filters through digital chaos, prioritizing what truly matters. 🔮 More than automation, but anticipating needs before we even articulate them. 💡 Enhancing intuition, informing decisions, and amplifying creativity. How much of your day is lost in translation? What will you do with that extra mental space and time? I know for me, I'll be spending my spare time memorizing Taylor Swift lyrics. 🙂

We joined forces with TechCrunch today to announce our $6M Series A, led by Adjacent! This will fuel our mission, helping us raise the next generation of creative thinkers with healthy, non-addictive digital play and learning for kids. ✨ Read the full scoop about what we're doing with all of this money, why building a diverse cap table is hard and what's next for Pok Pok. And if you want to know what it's like trying to get a smidge of that 2.2% of global VC dollars allotted to women founders, keep reading... Nico Wittenborn from Adjacent is awesome. He has incredible expertise and we're so glad to have him lead this round. Plus, he's unlike any other VC I've met (that's a compliment). Perhaps just as important, with him comes the expertise from his kids, too! His daughter has been playing with Pok Pok for over two years, and has an opinion just as important as her dad's. 😉 Same goes for Turner Novak's daughter at Banana Capital. And Brandon Leonardo's family. And all of the kids at Metalab — shout out to Luke Des Cotes and David Tapp! We're also thrilled to have the folks at Konvoy participating again too, and just love that with every passing year, more kids (and future playtesters) are being born into the Konvoy klan. The TLDR: we are so grateful to have a bunch of amazing investors be part of Pok Pok. But, we had a really tough time finding female investors for this round, something that was not the case in the past. It turns out that way fewer women VCs invest beyond Seed stage. After all that pitching, we found ourselves at a tipping point. We were so thrilled to have some really awesome investors in our corner, but it just didn't sit right to close without a single woman on the cap table (especially given our product and customer)! So we paused. Esther Huybreghts and I debriefed, allocated a chunk of capital and vowed to prioritize women investors in a second close. We were grateful to have had the unwavering support of our board and Nico in this decision. It took more time, but we found some incredible women like Michelle Kennedy, Mengting Bönsch (Gao), Julie McGill, CA•CBV, ICD.D and Ekaterina Damer, PhD. These women are strategic, valuable and simply awesome. I’m sharing this story to hopefully inspire even just one woman to start investing and one founder to push a little bit harder for a diverse cap table. And maybe in 2024 we can make that 2.2% a 3% and finally quantify how many female investors there really are out there so we can add more! Now, back to building! 💪 https://lnkd.in/gzKJSGDB

Ezra Klein opens his podcast, with AI Expert, Ethan Mollick, with an all too relatable preamble: “I consistently sort of wander up to the A.I., ask it a question, find myself somewhat impressed or unimpressed at the answer. But it doesn’t stick for me. And I think that failure matters. I think getting good at working with A.I. is going to be an important skill in the next few years.” In the next hour, Klein and Mollick go back and forth with some of the most insightful and practical AI guidance I’ve heard. For example: Ethan Mollick: "A.I. is built like a tool. It’s software…But because of how it’s built, because of how it’s constructed, it is much more like working with a person than working with a tool. In fact, there’s some early evidence that programmers are the worst people at using A.I. because it doesn’t work like software. It doesn’t do the things you would expect a tool to do. Tools shouldn’t occasionally give you the wrong answer, shouldn’t give you different answers every time, shouldn’t insult you or try to convince you they love you. And I find that teachers, managers, even parents, editors, are often better at using these systems, because they’re used to treating this as a person.” See comments below for some of my other favorite sound bites. I definitely encourage everyone to listen. https://lnkd.in/gjmHCEvq
