When offering stock options to employees why not tell them: 1) The absolute # of options 2) What that represents on a fully diluted basis 3) What they would receive today if the company sold today at 0.5X, 1X, or 2X the latest valuation net of exercise.

The unbundling of G Suite has officially started: 1. Gmail(client) -> @Superhuman 2. Docs -> @NotionHQ @DropboxPaper 3. Sheets -> @airtable @NotionHQ 4. Slides -> @Pitch Hope to see @gsuite @Office teams have real competition and more innovation in the domain.
Pitch has raised $50 million now without having launched the product publically as yet, with founders of both Superhuman and Notion co-investing. 2020s is looking as the era of the product-driven founders and early teams. Lean startup is dead. techcrunch.com/2019/10/01/pi…

Customer acquisition has never been harder and many of us product-oriented founders have struggled here - it’s rare to have a superpower around customer acquisition *and* product craft. If you’re thinking about this here are five ideas to chew on: a16z.com/2019/09/24/how-fint…
