The world is getting warmer while our infrastructure gets older: a recipe for disasters.
We’re excited to announce Fund II: $85M for early stage investments in disaster resilience.

I'm thrilled to announce @Stedi's $50m Series C, led by Lee Fixel from Addition with participation from @Stripe, @RibbitCapital, @USV, @FirstRound, @BoxGroup, and @BloombergBeta, along with angel investors including @tobi, Charlie Songhurst, @rauchg, @karimatiyeh, @Max, and more. This latest round brings our total funding to $142 million.
We’ve grown enormously over the past year. Our number of paying customers has increased by 6x year over year, and our number of billed transactions has increased by over 7x. We’re now processing more than a billion claims and eligibility transactions annually – to frame this on a relative basis, we processed more transactions in February alone than we did in the first half of 2025 combined. This month, Stedi was named one of @TryRamp's fastest-growing vendors – across all categories, not just healthcare – for the second time in ten months; we’re the first non-AI company to make the list in five months.
We’ve done all this while offering a level of support that (allegedly) doesn’t scale. We offer dedicated Slack and Teams channels to every customer and now have over 1,500 shared channels. Over the past 12 months, our median support ticket response time has decreased from 18.3 minutes to just 6.7 minutes, all while handling a 6.4x increase in support volume – with 100% of tickets answered by humans.
Our customers send us thousands and thousands of questions and suggestions every month, day and night, and the learnings we get from this firehose of real-time feedback are the engine that turns our business. It is this process that has made us the fastest-growing clearinghouse by a wide margin.
This latest round of funding allows us to continue to accelerate development across our platform and to continue to serve customers with a first-rate support experience.
One key to that is continuing to build a world-class team – to that end, we are hiring for dozens of roles across engineering, product, design, operations, GTM, and more. If building the transactional layer for the future of healthcare sounds interesting to you, drop me a note.

Big day at Cache! Introducing Cache Long/Short.
Less than two years ago, Cache launched an accessible exchange fund, bringing tax-deferred diversification to a broader audience. Today, we work with thousands of investors and manage over $1B in assets.
And some of them encouraged us to do more: exchange funds are powerful, but not every situation calls for the same solution.
Cache Long/Short is a new tool for your toolkit. It pairs a long extension with a short extension around your concentrated position that is designed to:
✅ Create harvestable losses that can offset your gains
✅ Provide flexibility to diversify on your own timeline
✅ Manage upcoming or realized capital gains
✅ Rebalance highly appreciated positions tax-efficiently
Unlike traditional tax-loss harvesting or direct indexing, this strategy aims to harvest losses in most market conditions, including rising markets.
An active strategy demands seasoned hands. We’ve built this in partnership with Erkko Etula and the team at @BklnInvest, whose team manages the portfolio and brings decades of experience from Goldman Sachs, BlackRock, Citadel, and academic institutions.
Key details: Schwab custody, annual management fees starting at 0.50%, $500K minimum.
We're rolling out in batches. If you hold concentrated stock and want more flexibility in how you manage it, we're happy to discuss how it works.

If you are a software engineer "experiencing some degree of mental health crisis", now hear this, because I've been coding for 50 years since the days of punched cards and I have a salutary kick in your ass to deliver.
Get over yourself. Every previous "programming is obsolete" panic has been a bust, and this one's going to be too.
The fundamental problem of mismatch between the intentions in human minds and the specifications that a computer can interpret hasn't gone away just because now you can do a lot of your programming in natural language to an LLM.
Systems are still complicated. This shit is still difficult. The need for people who specialize in bridging that gap isn't going to go away.
As usual, the answer is: upskill yourself and adapt. If a crusty old fart like me can do it, you can too.

An entire generation of entrepreneurs & tech investors built their entire perspectives on valuation during the second half of a 13-year amazing bull market run. The "unlearning" process could be painful, surprising, & unsettling to many. I anticipate denial. Some thoughts:
