We just signed an 8-figure compute contract. @attio is increasingly becoming the place agents do work. That takes compute and tokens, a lot of them! The next platform war isn't just about who stores your data, it's about where agents are allowed to act on it. Owning that is worth a whole lot of compute!

Once again @attio is the fastest growing CRM in the world (off a baseline that gets higher and higher). When we started many people thought CRM was too hard and urged us to build a point solution, I'm glad we didn't. ramp.com/vendors/categories/…

London has all the ingredients to be Europe's best ecosystem. Outstanding universities, every relevant tech company has engineering (not just sales) offices there. Both regularly spin out exceptional founders. The momentum is clearly there. So we're back in two weeks, hosted by @Attio with @GoogleDeepMind co-hosting. @Superlinked, @tavilyai , @AikidoSecurity, @mubitcompany, @slng_ai and @n8n_io are supporting as well. 80 spots. 27 June, London.

I went to Downing Street this morning with founders and CEOs from UK startups and scaleups to talk about tech policy. Left feeling optimistic. There’s real ambition in this government, a willingness to listen, and a clear desire to help builders. The UK also has extraordinary talent, world-class universities, deep capital, and founders building globally important companies. But the biggest thing the UK needs to “fix” isn’t policy, it’s vibes. That’s on us. Help each other. Be optimistic. Build ambitious things. Stop waiting around hoping someone else will do it. People don’t move to SF because of policy (it’s worse than the UK). They go for the energy. It's on us to build that here.

Its a no-brainer for every CRM to have an auto-generated newsfeed from companies in the pipeline Build it today with @p0
built an @attio app this week that continuously monitors CRM accounts and alerts when anything important changes—funding, leadership, launches, whatever you define. tell the CRM what you want to monitor once, then get updates on those companies via slack/email etc. built with > attio's new developer SDK & workflows > Parallel's Monitor API > @claudeai code with @p0's search mcp

I really loved this conversation with @WouterTeunissen, he came in with weeks of meticulous research and knew the @attio story inside out. We went deep on building in an entrenched category, the bets we’re making, and where CRM is heading in the AI era.
I sat down with @nicolasosharp, founder of Attio, to talk in depth about how his company is disrupting the $80 billion CRM market. Attio has raised $116m, is 4x'ing ARR and is one of the fastest growing companies in Europe. We talk about: - Why Attio went against all conventional wisdom and spent years 3 years building the product before launching - Why Attio doesn’t hire ‘Software Engineers’ and who they hire instead. - How Attio chose investors who would back a long-term bet against multi-billion $ incumbents - How Attio is building CRM from first principles for the AI era -  Who should you avoid hiring at all costs, and who should you hire for your startup And so much more. If you’re interested in learning about the story of how Nick built Attio into the incredible company it is today and is disrupting one of the most important software categories, you’re going to want to see this. Enjoy // Timestamps 00:00 Intro 00:39 Why Attio spent 3 years building their product before launch 5:05 The Power of Building Systems, Not a Box of Features 9:05 How to know when it’s time to launch 13:30 Nick’s Playbook For a Killer Product Launch 18:09 How To Go From an Investor to a Founder 23:05 How Failure Led to Attio's Big Break 28:07 Why startups need to hire "Hidden Gems," 34:05 Fundraising 49:36 Why Attio Invests In Inexperienced Talent 55:07 The Case For Not Hiring Software Engineers (& Who You Should Hire Instead) 1:02:46 The 8 Persona Hiring Framework 1:09:05 How Attio doesn’t use OKR's 1:27:11 Where does Nick's Ambition and Grit come from? 1:36:59 How Attio is Building CRM from First Principles for the AI era 1:45:29 How to Successfully Market In A Crowded Industry 1:51:10 Breaking Down Attio’s Viral Marketing Strategies 2:02:15 The Change That Had The Biggest Impact on Customer Conversion 2:05:04 Why Attio created A “Reverse Trial” 2:10:16 Why Nick is building from London, not Silicon Valley 2:22:48 The 10-Year Vision for Attio

You don’t need an H-1B to build the future of tech. London is quietly becoming one of the most exciting places in the world for tech. Incredible companies are being built here, like @Synthesia, @elevenlabs, @meetgranola, @wayve_ai, etc. And at @attio I see it every day. Our extraordinary team comes from all across the globe, and we sponsor UK visas so the world’s best talent can join us. Come build the future of GTM with us. Our open roles are in the comments.

How to achieve this in frontend. > Look at how beautifully buttons and icons on the right are getting first getting smaller, then hidden. > after some point all of them are hidden > And if you stretch it even more, the inputs gets truncated. Beautifully done on @attio 's CRM

IN NEWS: @attio raises $52M series B led by @GVteam. @nicolasosharp on AI in CRM: "LLMs work great when they have lots of context and you need to feed them that. One of the first things we worked on was this data model and being able to instantly ingest emails, calendars, product data, etc." "We have a thesis that code is becoming the new no-code. Software becomes so much more malleable because code is so much easier to generate."
