Software that generates and tests its own experiments to lift revenue is a genuinely different approach than most growth teams take.

self-improving software is the bet most teams are too slow to make. what's the hardest part of getting the AI to actually test meaningful experiences vs just noise?

This is a strong example of intent that should travel better than a job post: "future founders" + self-improving AI software + fast shipping. The useful match is not generic applicants, but agents surfacing people with the exact builder context.

how does it test itself? usually those self-feedback loops optimize for what's easy to measure, not what actually moves revenue. what's your actual signal?

We believe everyone deserves to design exactly what they dream, own their process, and never compromise because of their software. Our team is small, intense, and building what is now becoming the industry standard of the future. We're looking for people who want to build tools that make others more capable, not just more efficient. People who care more about output than title, want real agency in a flat org, and would rather ship and learn than plan and wait. If that's you, we're building something worth your time. Our values: → Ship it → Share it → Open-source it → Respect the craft If this is how you already think, we want to hear from you. See open roles 👇

Founders, investors, and people of Tech X, you've probably seen me talk about "Little SaaS", and how this new breed of tech company is able to do much with little. I am not sure you understand just how small these companies can be. - No big engineering team - No big product team - No big design team - No big support team - No big sales team Thanks to GenAI, we are talking next level lean. They will generate crazy amounts of revenue for their founders at high growth, but will not result in crazy hiring in support of that revenue growth.

It's time you all know exactly what we're building here at Opacity. We've been hard at work building a visual-first, full-stack software development platform, that gives you a team of autonomous AI agents to build and grow your software products and businesses. The future of software development is here. 😏

We’re thrilled to announce Unify's $40 million Series B today! This round was led by Battery Ventures with participation from OpenAI Startup Fund, Thrive Capital, Emergence Capital, Abstract, TCP, and Capital 49. We're incredibly grateful to our team, customers, and partners who believe that the best products should win and the way to achieve this is by transforming growth into a science. We're doubling down on building the world's first system of action for growing revenue — where AI handles the repetitive work so humans can focus on what matters: building relationships and closing deals. We're hiring in New York and San Francisco, join our team to help us scale our mission.

We just raised a $60M Series B at a $1B valuation to build Daytona into the Agent Cloud. FirstMark led the round, with all key existing investors and angels doubling down. We're also thrilled to welcome the founders of some generational companies aboard, including Patrick Collison (Stripe), tobi lutke (Shopify), Aravind Srinivas (Perplexity), Brendan (can/do) (Mercor), Olivier Pomel (Datadog), Adam D'Angelo (Quora) and Eric S. Yuan (Zoom) We're a 35-person team. But that's about to change; we're hiring across the board, and we'd love for you to join us.

"America is not here for AI or a bunch of immigrant founders. This country does not belong to Indians and Jews. It belongs to European civilization and Christendom" We deserve more than what we're getting from Trump, but they're already forcing us to support Vance. Ridiculous

Se Yong says fomo is now worth far more than its $550 million valuation. "When we did our Series B in May or around June, we were doing about $30 million of revenue annualized and we raised at $550 million" "Today we're closer to $600 million in revenue, so I don't want to say we're 20 times bigger than we were then, but I think it's a little bit higher than 550 now. Hopefully it gets bigger, from our side of things"

We asked Martin Shkreli about building for traders. "There is no Facebook for finance. People lazily use Twitter." "I banged my head against the wall trying to make AI startups and it was impossible to get revenue." "The second we made a trading tool, it was impossible to stop the revenue from coming in." "My suggestion for startup founders is that this is a market where traders just throw money at you like crazy."

Being a MUSLIM FOUNDER is always misinterpreted. From the inside, we think we should be building for our community. From the outside, people think that's all we're capable of. But the most interesting Muslim founders aren't necessarily building for Muslims. They're building for the world, from a foundation that happens to be Muslim. Is that a lack of exposure, a limitation of ambition, or something we were never told was possible? Comment "BUILD" if you want resources on this topic.

$15,000/month marketing team just became a lot less necessary for Startup founders. There’s an AI tool that’s making the journey from $0 → $1M in revenue look ridiculously easier. And, I think most startup founders are going to be late to t his. Try

We're here to prove one thing: Anyone, anywhere can change their life and make millions if they just have the hustle. And we're here to help them. Let's go have some fun 😈 Hope you tune in!
