10x a year for 3 years? I've seen a lot of growth, and that is truly exceptional. It's not unusual for startups to grow 10x in a year, but to keep it up for 3 years is close to unheard of. That's 1000x.

Exa just passed $100m in annualized revenue. We've grown almost exactly 10x per year for 3 years. We now handle 2 billion requests a month from 200k+ teams. And it’s still so early: We predict agents will search 1000x more than humans by 2030. Agents don't search like humans.

From my opinion when we first invested in Exa in 2021, pre revenue.

Amazon won retail with One-Click Checkout. Amazon will lose retail to Zero-Click Checkout. Zero-Click Checkout: Tell the AI what you want. It shows you the best options, you choose, it orders it for you from the cheapest/fastest store.

@HarryStebbings Investors love telling founders to raise less money at lower valuations.

@paulg @ycombinator And because they are growing so fast, the absolute y-axis on these startups is also very impressive.

Most of the replies are saying this is ok/normal behavior. They are all wrong. I’ve made over 1,000 investments and this behavior is totally unacceptable.

Someone introduced me to an investor that they thought I would connect with. After the meeting and the investor was really intersted, the person that connected us called me and said he wants 5% of the raise as an intro fee. That's insane, right?
