This week, we’ve been highlighting what’s next across Headline’s key focus sectors, and today, we have the ever-critical B2B software.
This year, our team’s excited to see more software wedging into the market via specific verticals like healthcare and supply chain.
Our SaaS investors Mathias Schilling, @TaylorBrandtNYC, and Dominic Wilhelm share what they’re hyper-focused on for 2024: headline.com/blog-latest/art…

1/ Great chatting with @Haje about Deepdive - a tool we built @HeadlineVC to power our diligence process that we recently made available to founders, free of cost. Here’s a 🧵on how the tool came to life and why it matters. techcrunch.com/2023/11/20/he…
5/ We decided to open Deepdive up publicly because we’ve seen first hand how detrimental it can be for companies to raise money and go after growth at all costs before reaching product market fit. Better data is good for everyone. headline.com/blog-latest/art…
6/ We’re constantly looking for ways to help our investment team and founders win bigger, and Deepdive is just one of the tools in our toolbox. We shared more about our approach to building technology on our blog if you’re interested in learning more: headline.com/blog-latest/art…
Today we’re excited to lead the $6M Seed round in DBeaver - an open source, universal database management software. Sourced through our proprietary tool, Searchlight, DBeaver has the potential to change the game for every company that works with data. Here’s why 🧵
We’re investing in the future of universal database management with @dbeaver_news 🚀 Congrats to Tatiana, Serge and the DBeaver team on raising your first round! More about the investment 👉 headline.com/blog-latest/art…
They’re constantly improving the product to make it easier to use - like with their latest integration with the @OpenAI API. Now, people can get even more out of their data through simple prompts that DBeaver automagically translates into SQL queries.
Serge & Tatiana didn’t need to raise capital, but it will give them the accelerant to achieve their vision of becoming the universal database management tool. We can’t wait to help them win bigger, scale globally, and make their vision a reality. 🚀headline.com/blog-latest/art…
1/ The value that @Honeycombio’s observability platform provides to engineering teams is business-critical, and I couldn't be more thrilled to help them scale to win big on a global level with today’s Series D investment. honeycomb.io/blog/50-million…
1/ We’ve got some big news to share! We’ve raised a $50M Series D round that will ensure we can continue to invest – with conviction – in improving the lives of software engineering teams through #observability. @cyen details how in her latest post. bit.ly/3zAkYwH
4/ We saw Honeycomb’s potential because @mipsytipsy and @cyen lived the problem in their previous roles, and their combined strengths make them the right founders to bring this solution to dev teams around the world.
