I (accidentally) raised $250,000 for a startup... We all know that launching a new business is hard work. This is why I'm always reluctant to start anything new unless we have clear evidence and data that it's going to be successful. Around 8 months ago, we got that data. Here are the exact 5 steps we took to raise $250,000 for a new startup. This includes: - How we tested the idea to ensure this was worth pursuing - What surprising data we gathered that gave us vital insights into pricing - How we raised investment of $250K (and how we could have raised more) - What feedback we gathered to improve the product - How we hit $100K ARR when we launched (and this was just a soft launch) I hope you find this case study useful. I wanted to be as transparent as possible so you can understand exactly how you could go from an initial idea right through to successful launch. #mvp #launch #ai

This is exactly the customer centric approach we are advocating at 12ronnies.com. Validate your idea before building product. Waitlists are a great research resource. You then have the choice to target the investor segment or retain equity and launch only to the customer segment.

"The potential for generative AI to abstract away whole layers of existing technology and manual tasks is very much on the cards but can’t be built on sand – that’s where knowledge graphs can help."

Hebbia raises nearly $100M Series B for AI-powered document search led by Andreessen Horowitz | TechCrunch Hebbia, a startup using generative AI to search large documents and return answers, has raised a nearly $100 million Series B led by Andreessen Horowitz, according to three people with knowledge of the matter.  The round valued the company between $700 million and $800 million, although TechCrunch couldn’t verify whether that valuation is pre- or post-money.
