We just announced our $60M Series C at @RocketlaneHQ led by @insightpartners As always, amazing rap from Rahul - please watch and share 😁
Super stoked to announce that we just raised $60M in a Series C round! @insightpartners was the lead investor this time around, what better way to announce this than to rap about it? 🎙️

A founder asked me questions for 66% of the meeting time. I loved it :) Made me think, question myself and improve. VCs ask founders a lot of questions before investing. Why don't founders do the same? It is a marriage after all! :) #VcMusings
