Greylock’s Post

In this week's newsletter, we share the story of Figma's initial mission: to shrink the gap between imagination and reality, and how the company is well on its way to achieving that goal. “For us, the intention was always to decrease the time it takes to go from something in your head to something on the screen,” whether it’s a website or a fully functional app," Figma co-founder and CEO Dylan Field says. Read on for more about Figma's journey, and for the latest portfolio news and events where Greylock partners are featured speakers.

In today’s newsletter, CEO and Co-Founder of Notable, Pranay Kapadia, shares how the company leverages #AI to automate all the mundane, day-to-day administrative tasks that suck time and money out of the #healthcare system. “Imagine not having to make a phone call ever again in the healthcare system, not for scheduling appointments, verifying insurance, making referrals, or collecting payments. That’s what we’re working on,” says Kapadia. Plus, Greylock partner Saam Motamedi talks to Mario Gabriele about why founders deserve a VC partner who understands what they are doing really deeply.
