You shouldn't need the best network to get the best insights.
SuperMe turns operators' work into profiles that work through your problem. Now in group chats, Claude and ChatGPT.
@ludo_antonov and I raised a $20M Series A led by @kirstenagreen from @ForerunnerVC with participation from @GreylockVC.

From “what can I make with broccoli and cheddar"
to “write a plan based on last week’s product roadmap call.”

@otter_ai Co-founder and CEO @Goopt was on the @NYSE trading floor yesterday! 🏙️ 📈
Sam joined @GemmaAllenSays and @johnfurrier on @thecubetv @theCUBE to discuss Otter's evolution into a meeting-centric enterprise knowledge base with voice AI and agentic workflows at the core.
Thanks to @bjbaumann2014, Gemma, John, and the NYSE team for having us!

I’ve been working on something pretty cool with @tonydevincenzi and the team at town.com.
Most AI tools want you to come to them. Open a chat, type a prompt, get an answer. We built one that comes to you. Town Assistant connects to your email, calendar, and docs - then actually does things. Not answers. Actions.
It’s early, but beta users love it so we’re opening the beta to the world. town.com check it out!
Users have built workflows that:
→ Turn newsletter emails into podcasts
→ Prep for interviews and external meetings
→ Track RSVPs for a dinner party and auto-draft follow-ups
→ Monitor consulting invoices and help with collections
→ Research and write applications for pre-schools
No code. Just describe what you want.
My favorite part of my day is my morning briefing — schedule, emails that matter, news. I listen while making coffee.
That plus the dozen other things Town automates for me in the background. I don't think about them anymore. They just happen.
Opening it to the world today.
Here's my Town assitant announcing the launch: town.com/content/audio/ns74j…
Free beta. Would love your feedback. Oh and you can name your assistant. Mine’s Ivy.

Imo “Psych” is the single most useful concept for building consumer apps (especially onboarding).
Basic idea is every element adds or subtracts emotional energy — “positive psych” or “negative psyche.”
Reducing friction is important, but adding “positive psych” is even more so. (It’s also more neglected, maybe because it’s hard).
Been very helpful as a team to have this shared mental model - “how can we add more positive psych here?” Etc.
Props to @dariusmc for developing the framework - so simple and powerful.

So far as I can tell, Mayor Matt is the best public servant in CA right now.
Someday, when he's ready, am going to help him run for governor.
In the meantime, urge anyone interested in getting our state back on track to join his mailing list by filling out this little survey.
If you agree, sign up here and share your best ideas for how we build a better California — from the bottom up. bit.ly/BacktoBasicsCA

Proud to be featured in @a16z Top 50 AI Apps though Mercury's methodology underestimates our revenue. @otter_ai should rank higher.
The real story? Meeting AI has gone horizontal as individual adoption pulls AI into enterprise faster than ever.

امروز یه تجربه جالب با Otter.ai داشتم و اون اینکه خودش اتوماتیک جای من تو وبینار شرکت کرد و یادداشت برداشت برام. خدا به مدیر محصول و بنیانگذار فهیمش طول عمر و برکت بده
یکی از عزیزان توییترکه فالوو دارم این ابزار Otter_ai برای نتبرداری از جلسات رو پیشنهاد داد. اپ موبایلش رو استفاده کردم. چند روزه دارم دعاش میکنم.
هر چقدر فکر میکنم یادم نمیاد کی بود معرفی کرده بود.
خلاصه خدا خیرش بده.

I've been thinking a lot about growth in the age of AI. As the title says I have a prediction the platform will be ChatGPT.
But there is a more important lesson. The cycle that occurs behind distribution shifts. If you know the cycle, then you know how to play the game.
I break it down step-by-step with @lennysan on this episode. Enjoy!
Pay attention to this: @bbalfour (founder of @reforge, former VP of Growth at @HubSpot) has studied every major platform shift—from Facebook to Apple to Google—and he’s spotted a pattern that’s about to repeat with ChatGPT.
Brian predicts that within the next 6 months, ChatGPT will become the next major distribution platform.
In our conversation, Brian shares:
🔸 The 4-step cycle every platform follows (and why ChatGPT just entered step 2)
🔸 Why ChatGPT’s platform launch could be bigger than Facebook’s early platform
🔸 The exact signals that ChatGPT will launch a third-party platform within six months
🔸 Why you have six months (not years) to make your platform bet
🔸 Why companies that don’t integrate with ChatGPT will lose to competitors that do
🔸 Why so few companies are actually doing what they need to be doing right now

Today we're announcing our Series C: $100M raised, led by @Alphabetlnc's @CapitalG, at a $3.1B valuation.
Funding moments are a chance to reflect, but I’m feeling a signal that something real and human and lasting is taking shape. That our impact is being felt. (🧵)
