Thanks so much Michael Cardamone! I still remember when we grabbed coffee as you were just starting up what eventually evolved into Forum Ventures. ❤️

Super excited to announce that our company Courier has raised a $35M Series B round led by partner @SangeenZeb from GV with continued support from Bessemer and @MatrixPartners. Can't wait to build the future. Check out our blog post below: ctt.ec/qvf7t+

Thank you Edith Harbaugh! We love love *love* working with the team LaunchDarkly and have some things cooking this summer that your team is excited for!

No this is not another thank you video 🤣 It's me discussing our new mobile functionality! lnkd.in/g5rvwbMY

This week was great, and looking forward to next week! Have a great weekend! 💌 lnkd.in/gQTsV9gE

When you finally find that Head of Product Marketing that fits. Happy to have you on the team Anwesa Chatterjee 🌐, and congrats on the hire Nick Gottlieb! lnkd.in/dti7qQGx

We often find that platform engineering teams get a lot of value from the organization that Courier can bring to one's software architecture. Excited to have Jason join and advance ours. lnkd.in/gWxJq2bw

We assembled some of our research about user preferences into a 20 page resource for folks to digest and think about when sending notifications moving into 2023. lnkd.in/gEmKNj4e

If the world is interested in removing SPAM, the likely reaction will make messaging a strict environment and organizations will need infrastructure in place to react quickly. lnkd.in/gD2BpMWq

We had another Twilion join us. People who were able to witness the early days of Twilio make for strategic members of our team, helping us understand the nuance of communications GTM strategy. lnkd.in/gkwU7Vps

We're incredibly excited to launch our new #developer workshop series DECODE. Here's the thinking: In 2023, software teams are spending more time on the notification experience of their web and mobile apps—ways to better engage…lnkd.in/gERuSy_U lnkd.in/gKktsjhv

AI-powered product notifications are now a reality! Use Courier’s GPT-integration to optimize copy for a channel or build new notifications from scratch. Learn more: bit.ly/3I6xngU

Check out this AI-generated template Courier generated for me when I named it "Password Reset" – one click, nothing else. 💜

What’s more important to notifications than your users’ preferences? We just launched Courier Preferences: the fastest way to design the best preference experience. #userpreferences bit.ly/3XSz06n

yvonne I tried OneSignal, SendGrid, EmailJS, few other things, ideally wanted one place for notifications and not implement any myself. Courier's onboarding process won my heart, and the DX is lovely

One of Courier's superpowers is a deep understanding that both API & UI are equally important to developer experience. Stoked by how our team is raising the bar for ourselves and the entire #devtools industry. Take a look at today's sneak peek: bit.ly/3LnWCeZ

Everyone’s chasing the next big AI breakthrough. The real opportunity? Helping builders ship faster, not fancier. Ask yourself: does your product kill friction—or just make you look smart? Velocity > novelty. Every time.

Most founders obsess over what to build next. The real leverage is learning what NOT to build. Customers don’t care about your feature list. They care about getting to an outcome faster. Sometimes the best growth move is cutting, not adding. Velocity > complexity.

Founders overestimate strategy and underestimate momentum. Startups don’t die because of the “wrong plan.” They die because they stop moving. Ship something small. Create motion. Learn. Adjust. Progress > perfection. #ycombinator #startups #founder #buildinpublic #execution

VCs aren’t impressed by “we use AI.” They care about one thing: Does your product remove friction and speed people up? The loudest won’t win. The fastest will. #startups #ai #devtools 📈 news.crunchbase.com/venture/state-…
