    Thrilled to be leading Eve's $103M Series B here at Spark Capital. Could not be more excited to partner with Jayanth M., Matt Noe and the team as they build the industry leading AI platform for plaintiff law firms. More from Jay below!

    Founder & CEO at Eve, ex-VC LSVP, Facebook, Rubrik founding eng

    Today marks a special chapter in Eve’s journey. We started with a simple but ambitious belief: the practice of law will be transformed by AI, and plaintiff firms deserve to be at the forefront of that change. Since then, we’ve had the privilege of working with some of the most forward-thinking firms in the country. Together, we’ve seen what happens when lawyers are freed from repetitive work and empowered to focus on advocacy — faster case resolutions, stronger client outcomes, and a legal system that works better for everyone. I’m proud to share that Eve has raised our Series B, $103M at a $1B+ valuation, led by Spark Capital with continued support from Andreessen Horowitz, Lightspeed, and Menlo Ventures. But this moment is about much more than funding. It’s about doubling down on our mission to build the AI-Native Law Firm and continuing to earn the trust of the lawyers who are redefining what’s possible for their clients. To our customers: thank you for leading the way. Thank you for building with us. To our team: thank you for pushing the frontier of AI in law every single day. To our partners and investors: thank you for believing in this vision. The future of law is being written right now, and I couldn’t be more excited for what’s ahead. Thank you for supporting on our journey! Link to press and more in comments below

    Co-Founder & CEO at GetYourGuide

    2025 was a summer like no other. At GetYourGuide, we’ve shattered all of our booking records. 🚀 As we wrap up high season, I wanted to take a moment to highlight our best day ever. On August 3rd, we crossed 100 bookings per minute for the very first time. That drove €4.7 million in revenue from over 144,000 experiences booked. Folks still ask about our post-COVID recovery, so let me put this in perspective: On the same day back in 2019, we had about 27,000 bookings, just shy of 19 per minute. We’re now in a whole new ballpark. This summer, more than 23 million travelers have booked unforgettable experiences with GetYourGuide. We're now the most-searched experiences brand globally, and in core markets like France and Germany, half the population now knows our brand name. From the iconic sights of Paris to the hidden gems of Puglia, people everywhere are telling us loud and clear: they’re craving connection with the world around them. I want to say thank you to our amazing team and all the incredible partners who make these experiences possible. And I want to hear from you: What did you do this summer that was truly unforgettable?

    Software Supply Chain Security

    Today, I’m thrilled to share Chainguard has raised a $356 million Series D, led by Kleiner Perkins and IVP, with participation from new investors Salesforce Ventures and Datadog Ventures, and all existing investors like Sequoia, Spark, Amplify, Redpoint, Lightspeed, Mantis, and Kerrest & Co. This funding helps accelerate our mission to be the safe source for open source. When we started Chainguard three years ago, supply chain security had the curiosity of the industry. Today it has their attention. Breaches like XZ-utils to the more recent tj-actions send a clear message: the old ways of building and using open source software don’t work anymore. Every day, Chainguard helps companies build software better. We started by securing the end of the supply chain with our Containers product, and now we’re moving up and down the stack to secure even more open source with Chainguard VMs and Libraries - all powered by the Chainguard OS and the Chainguard Factory. The results? $40M+ in revenue, 150+ customers, and 288,000+ engineering hours saved for our customers. To our customers, team, and investors - thank you. You make this possible. And to everyone else - we’re just getting started. LFG! https://lnkd.in/egjW3wbR

    🎉 How D-lightful! 🎉 Chainguard has raised a $356M Series D round co-led by new investor Kleiner Perkins and existing investor IVP, with participation from Salesforce Ventures, Datadog Ventures, and every single other existing investor. This brings our total funds raised to over $600M, and puts us at a $3.5 billion valuation. We’re on a mission to be the safe source for open source and build a future where security and innovation can move in lockstep. This new investment allows us to continue creating secure, easy to use products and solutions that enable that future for our users. The momentum we’ve built over the past few years has been incredible to experience, and we’re grateful to all our customers, investors, and community for supporting us and being along for the ride. 🫶 Reach out if you are interested in joining us on this journey—we are hiring in every department!

    Today we announced our fundraise, led by Index Ventures and Spark Capital, in Axios. A huge thank you to Ryan Lawler for sharing the Vinyl Equity story. A massive thank you to our customers and partners who agree that the solutions in the market aren't sufficient for the needs of a modern enterprise in the public markets. We're excited to move the transfer agent market forward and, in doing so, provide a more stable foundation for public companies everywhere. Of course, a special thanks to Sofia DolfeAlex FinkelsteinJay Ganatra, and Rex Salisbury, along with an incredible group of angel investors. Please read, share and let people know that there actually are better options in the market than legacy transfer agents you've been forced to accept. https://lnkd.in/gcmKZiMC
