Introducing Overlap Campaigns.
We’re bringing performance pricing to clipping: you pay only for the views your clips generate.
Today we’re launching Overlap Campaigns: a team of AI agents that run clipping campaigns on social accounts you own, priced based on the views they generate.
Clips have become both the content people consume and the ads for the businesses behind it. The same clip can introduce someone to a creator, promote what they sell, and generate revenue itself.
Someone might never watch your full podcast or show. They can still see your clips regularly, get to know you, and become a customer. For that person, the clips are the show.
That has made clipping an essential part of promotion and monetization for creators and creator-led businesses.
Running a "clipping campaign" used to mean wrangling freelance clippers in Discord who publish your content on accounts you don’t own.
Overlap Campaigns gives that work to a team of agents. You set the budget. They find moments in your content library, edit them into clips, and publish across your accounts.
This is why @Overlap_AI works with thousands of creators to turn their content into reach and revenue.

Will Robbins (@whrobbins), on the one piece of advice he'd give his 20 year old self starting out in venture:
"All that matters in venture is having an enormous reputational wealth with the right founders."
Overlap: Business & Tech retweeted
Paul Graham (@paulg) had a trick for office hours: ask founders what other ideas they're kicking around.
They'd always give the serious ones first, the ones that "make sense" and "generate revenue."
Justin Kan and Michael Seibel did the same thing. Ran through all their real business ideas. Then, almost as an afterthought, Justin mentioned wanting to strap a camera to his head and livestream his life.
Everyone in the room lit up. That throwaway idea became Twitch.
Marty Kausas from Pylon make the point that the good ideas are usually the ones you're embarrassed to say out loud first.

Notre Dame's endowment rarely hammered GPs on terms.
Instead of a flat 30% carry, they'd tell managers: start at 20, go to 30, maybe higher if you clear 4-5x the fund.
Scott Malpass's logic: "I'm happy to pay up for excellence as long as the terms are balanced."

Michael Bruun of Goldman Sachs on the thing that never shows up on a balance sheet:
"Does this company have a good tech stack? Does this company have a homogeneous set of data? Is it a clean dataset?"
25 ERP systems. No data lake. A dataset that's been neglected for years. None of that appears in the financials, but it determines how a company adopts AI, and Goldman bakes the cost of fixing it directly into their return model.
It's future-proofing. Fix the plumbing during the ownership period, and a strategic buyer sees a company that's already ready.
There's a J-curve. It costs real money upfront. But the alternative is selling a company that looks fine on paper and can't actually use the technology everyone assumes it can.

Ten years ago venture was a reputation business.
Investors built decades-long track records and founders came to them.
Today it is a media business. TBPN gets acquired, Harry Stebbings deploys a billion dollars, and distribution matters as much as judgment.
The exit side changed too. Ten years ago you had 10 investments, one or two hit, the rest sat quietly, done. Now companies stay private forever and public markets are unforgiving, so big firms are standing up capital markets teams just to decide what to buy, hold, or sell.
Lightspeed has one. It didn't exist when Bill Gurley was blogging or Fred Wilson started writing.
Marketing, sourcing, exits — all getting institutionalized. The lone investor with a great instinct is turning into a firm with a media team and a trading desk.

Warren Buffett was once asked how he got so rich.
His answer: I started early. I'm in my nineties. I just compounded year over year.
People wrote that off as false modesty. But run the numbers. It's 25% compounded for eighty years. 10M to 30M to 50M to 100B. He didn't theorize the thought experiment. He lived it.
Compounding is the most undefeated idea in finance, and everyone still underprices it, because the hard part was never understanding it. The hard part is discipline. Not trying to be the hero. Letting the simple thing work.

*30M in 60 days
We started working with James Sexton (@nycdivorcelaw) about 60 days ago.
He now has multiple clip accounts running autonomously with @Overlap_AI agents, constantly editing, posting, learning, & optimizing.
21M+ views in less than 2 months on autopilot.
Most creators and media companies don't have a strategy for how to show up in the 'For You' feed algorithm.
This is the way.
Overlap: Business & Tech retweeted

Takes me right back to the 90s demo scene and BBS communities. Builders have always moved faster in packs... YC simply industrialised what hackers always knew. Community over capital, every time.
Paul Graham: The Real Advantage Of YC Isn't The Money
"Starting a startup is normally a very lonely business... this is like working in an office with all these colleagues, except you're all working on your own startups. You can also learn from what the other startups are doing at the same time you are." — @paulg

The drive matters. What worries me in AI is how alignment shortcuts get rationalized under shipping pressure. Those are the mistakes that compound.
Sam Altman's Advice to His Sophomore-Year Self
"It's all gonna work out... You can make a lot of mistakes."
"You can fail at stuff. The tech industry in particular is very forgiving of this, and I would've just told myself to have all the drive and the ambition, but just be a little happier along the way and trust that eventually it was gonna be okay." — @sama to @garrytan

Resilience is undervalued in how investors evaluate founders. The best operators I've worked with usually have at least one visible failure. The willingness to keep going after that tells you more than any pitch deck.

Been saying this - a small team with the right tools can compete with companies 10x their size now, thats decentralizing not concentrating, and its already playing out in proptech
Patrick Collison: AI Won't Concentrate the Economy, It Will Decentralize It
"There's a fear that AI is going to be this hegemonic centralizing, totalizing force where a small number of companies gobble up a very large share of the economy..."
"I don't worry about the centralization in the same way. I think there are going to be many thousands of winners... based on the trend lines we can see, I think we are heading towards a more decentralized world and one with more broad based prosperity." — @patrickc

AI centralizes infrastructure (compute & base models) while radically decentralizing execution.
When the cost of building software drops toward zero, small teams get enterprise-scale leverage.
The explosion of winners happens at the application layer.
