Omri Mor shared thisValuable perspective from Tom Halpin on real-time payment growth and the shift to worldwide adoption. This question (and response) stuck out to me because there is so much to be said about what is driving the need for fast payments. He mentioned time constraints, velocity, efficiency and mindset. I want to take it a step further and two more factors: control of capital and payee expectations. 1️⃣ Those who choose to adopt real-time payments, will have more control over their capital. When it comes to money movement and for so long we, as an industry, have settled, for antiquated systems, cash flow constraints, operational friction, the list goes on and on. Yet every conversation I have with a Head of Finance involves control over capital. Visibility (and accessibility) are invaluable in a digital economy that operates 24/7, globally. and real time payments eliminate the guessing games and waiting periods. 2️⃣ Payees live in an instant world. Instant gratification is prioritized by vendors and payees. Services globally have been made more accessible through tech advancements, and it's time payments mirror that flexibility. The corporations that prioritize their payee experience and give payees the choice in instant pay, will have the competitive advantage. All in all, I am excited about the growth of real-time payments and Tom's closing sentence hit the nail on the head. This isn't shiny, new, tech that serves no tangible purpose in day-to-day ops. In actuality, there is an incredibly strong case to be made for how real-time payments coupled with sophisticated payment orchestration can unlock real growth potential for your business and the technology already exists.

Omri Mor shared thisThe world of competitive gaming is another billion dollar industry where payments absolutely fall short. In 2026 alone, the industry will distribute over $1.6 billion globally in prize money. Now the part they don't tell you: 1. How long the distribution of funds is going to take. 2. What the hidden fees associated are. Put yourself in the shoes of a gamer, let's say there are two tournaments happening in the same day and you can only compete in one: 🔹 Tournament A has a slightly higher prize pool, but delivers payment in 2-4 weeks and has wire fees. 🔹 Tournament B offers a slightly smaller prize, but ensures a same day payout with less fees associated. Which tournament would you compete in? 🧐 Personally, I'm going with B. ⚡️ Leading tournament platforms understand the speed of payout is becoming just as important as size of prize pool.

Omri Mor shared thisComing in at nearly a $200B industry, it’s no surprise that the creator economy is projected to continue growing in the coming years. What’s interesting is the disparity between transaction volume and the value per creator payout. Nearly half of creators in the U.S. make less than $10K annually. If you’re in the business of sending creator payouts, you understand why these numbers make payment orchestration more complex. It’s likely you’re dealing with thousands (maybe millions) of transactions, but relatively low payment amounts. Why is this a problem? At a high level, legacy payment orchestration platforms aren’t built to process that kind of volume. When these processes break, you’re affecting thousands of creators. Broken systems lead to broken trust with your customers. ⚡️ The solution? API-driven disbursement systems remove limitations by triggering programmatically when your internal systems calculate earnings. Suddenly, you can process thousands of payments in a single call. That’s game-changing for you and your payees. Creators don’t experience the behind-the-scenes work of APIs, rails, and payment systems. They experience getting paid. Whether it’s sending $100K to one creator or $1 to 100,000 creators, every payee deserves to feel valued and confident their payout will arrive.

Omri Mor shared thisWhen it comes to mass payout businesses like gig economy, marketplaces, creator economies, etc. There's a million to choose from. What that means in practice is, every day your workforce gets to decide who they partner with. That puts the power in the hands of your payees. Now you have to think through how you can keep your workforce happy. What I've personally noticed in conversations with different founders is, the payout experience is a HUGE area of opportunity. For most payees, the bottom line is, "the easier the better." But what does "easier" look like? The Routable team has been spending a lot of time researching and gathering information on what payees actually want, and putting those changes into practice with our customers. ▪️Simpler onboarding ▪️Clear visibility into money earned ▪️Instant payment options If improving your payment operations is on your radar, our latest eBook can help you get started: https://lnkd.in/g7_w-fUR

Omri Mor shared thisOver the years, I’ve seen a consistent pattern: Payouts only get attention when they start breaking ⛓️💥 At that point, it’s no longer an ops issue. It’s a product and growth issue. We wrote this mass payouts guide to help teams get ahead of that curve, before the manual work and support tickets pile up. Inside you'll learn: 🔹 How mass payouts actually work 🔹 When to invest in real infrastructure 🔹 The tradeoffs between batch and real-time 🔹 How to scale globally without adding operational drag Bottom line: If you wait until payouts become a problem, you’re already behind. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gVhWkrsUOmri Mor shared thisWe hear it time and time again, "our existing payments process was working fine, but then we grew and overnight it became unmanageable." Your business growing is a good thing, but if your payouts process can't keep up, you're basically dealing with a ticking time bomb. 💣 Businesses that scale mass payouts with ease treat their payouts function as a necessary part of platform infrastructure. This guide breaks down the mechanics of scaling payouts: ↔️ API-first infrastructure vs CSV workflows 💸 Choosing between Same Day ACH, RTP, and push-to-card ⚙️ Automating tax compliance and global payments 👉 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eSfwgX6f

Omri Mor reposted thisOmri Mor reposted thisIntroducing Chordio Workbench, a Claude Code workspace built for PMs and designers on enterprise teams. The problem: in enterprise, you're often locked out of prototyping on your actual product. Security requirements, complex codebases, heavy build setup. So you vibe code something from scratch that never captures how the feature would really feel. And it's not just about building a surface-level prototype. It's building one that works within your actual product, business, and team constraints. Workbench handles both. It clones your product's front end into a dedicated repository so you can prototype directly on your real UI, in minutes, without a heavy setup. It also brings your product, business, and team context into the process, so Claude explores solutions grounded in real constraints. When the team gets to "let's build this", you don't have a spec or a static mockup. You have a coded prototype ready for integration. Want to try it with your team? Drop a comment or DM me and we'll get you set up.

Omri Mor reacted on thisOmri Mor reacted on thisOur first-ever OOH campaign at Quo is live. This is a very special moment for us. Someone on our team said this makes Quo a real company. Apparently, all it took was spending money on billboards. 😅 We built the campaign around a simple truth: for small businesses, every missed call is a potential missed opportunity. Money is on the line, so always say hello with Quo. Shoutout to Tori Murray and Richard Huffaker for leading this major effort, to Day Job and Quan Media Group for all their support, and to Jordan Hwang and Cai Cardenas for helping us get through the feedback process. If you're in NYC, LA, Dallas, or Chicago and spot Quo in the wild, be sure to send me a pic. ps - photo of Quo at MSG 🙂

Omri Mor reacted on thisSean Kelley was the first (paying) customer for my first startup, back in 2018. We had 4 customers before him, but unlike the others, he paid the bill on time, and will now forever be the first dollar of revenue I ever made. My wife was using my Linked In to message people on my behalf 🤣. When I show up for the demo, it ended up being the most electric whiteboarding session of my life. We made a master plan for my startup, his business, and all of these other businesses we proceeded to forget about. Felt like I finally found someone on my wavelength. Sean was crucial to helping me navigate the pandemic. Our startup had physical operations which ultimately led to the end of that chapter. I poured my 401K and savings into the startup and lost it all. (My credit score was a 540 when we got acquired by NVIDIA). I remember the day it was over I called Sean and we just brainstormed again. Alec Fong and I ended up building a payment platform for cannabis retailers, it took us 3 months, and we sold it to a YC startup- the money we made allowed us to avoid fundraising for a while. With the world remote and our new cash, Alec and I booked an Airbnb in Cayucos, CA with our favorite founder friends as a DIY YC, and proceeded to build Brev. Over the years, Sean has gone from a mentor to a close friend. He's shown me many times what it means to be a long term person playing long term games. He always helped me without asking anything for it. I am very grateful for Sean Kelley.

Omri Mor reacted on thisJacob Brazeal and I wrote about what it took to scale our payments system as Mercor grew from $2M per month to $2M a day. The problems are hard, the stakes are real, and the same kind of work is happening across fraud, infrastructure, security, and identity. We're hiring across all of it. Links in the comments.Omri Mor reacted on thisOur payments team moved from processing $200K to $14M a week on the platform in a matter of months. Derek Shimozawa and Jacob Brazeal share the five lessons they've learned: 1) A ledger is a first-class primitive 2) Manual processes are a risk surface 3) Automation requires canonical data 4) Observability investment compounds early 5) Controls aren't a compliance checkbox. They're load-bearing infrastructure. This work sits at an unique intersection: the pace of a hyper-growth startup with the requirements of a scaled fintech.

Thrilled to announce that Together Fund is investing in Sentra, alongside a16z speedrun! You track results in Jira. Decisions in Notion. Conversations in Slack. But the reasoning, the debates, trade-offs, and context behind why you chose A over B, disappears into what we call "Dark Matter." A decision made in March looks insane by July because no one remembers the constraints that made it smart. I lived this firsthand at Twitter scaling from 800 to 8,000 employees, and at Google while launching AI Overviews to billions at planet scale. The problem isn't process. Process is compensation for something deeper: organizational amnesia. An organization’s "Systems of Record" doesn’t solve this, they encode it. They store what happened, never why. That's why we are investing in Sentra. Sentra is the always-on collective memory that eliminates organizational amnesia by maintaining accurate context for all members and agents, functioning as an operational nervous system. It connects to every channel where work happens, meetings, Slack, email, code commits, docs, calendars, and treats them not as artifacts to search, but as living signals to synthesize. The fleeting and the permanent, unified into a memory that understands. The founding team is built for this: - Jae Gwan Park (CEO): Product-first founder, memory systems research at UofT and MIT - Ashwin Gopinath (CSO): Former MIT professor, created "Reflexion" (NeurIPS 2023), agents that learn from mistakes, 2x founder - Andrey Starenky (CTO): Early Vapi engineer, ex-IBM, built to process enterprise-scale data firehose Together is an operator-led fund. We invest in problems we've lived. This is one of them. Many congrats Jae, Ashwin and Andrey, we are so excited to partner with you!

Most founders go through life thinking they’re chickens. Back in 2005, Burak Büyükdemir nearly didn’t follow his instincts and almost didn’t write his first book. (Yes, nearly 20 years ago. And yes, he’ll admit that makes him feel ancient.) At the time, he was teaching at Istanbul Technical University, witnessing the very earliest stirrings of the Turkish startup ecosystem. One day, he helped organise a small student startup competition. The turnout stunned him: 🔹 Students queuing out the door 🔹 A packed room bursting with energy 🔹 A clear hunger to build something bigger That was the turning point. He realised founders didn’t just need lectures. They needed belief. They needed a bridge between ambition and action. That insight led to the founding of Etohum, one of Türkiye’s first startup programmes. And the book? "Why Can’t an Eagle Fly in the Coop? 🦅" It flopped. Only 2,000 copies were printed. Eventually bundled with a magazine just to get it into people’s hands. By most accounts, a failure. So why bring it up now? Burak has been quietly sharing ideas from that book on LinkedIn and what he’s seen is telling: The fundamentals of building a great business haven’t changed. 🟡 Same principles 🟡 Same founder fears 🟡 Same timeless solutions Here’s what he’s learned, watching founders either soar or stay grounded.

We Invested in Feltsense, Agentic Founders That Build and Scale Startups At Blitzscaling Ventures, we invest in founders building systems that can reshape how markets form and scale. Feltsense is exploring a new frontier led by Marik Hazan. They are building agentic founders that can create, launch, and scale startups autonomously, (yes, you read that right, AI agents building companies) we call this trend Autonomous Organizations. Historically, startups scaled through human coordination to scale. Teams hired people, built products, and expanded step by step. Feltsense introduces a model where AI agents can ideate, build, test, and iterate continuously. This has the potential to dramatically accelerate company formation and innovation cycles. We believe this represents an early signal of a broader shift. Software is evolving from a tool used by entrepreneurs into an active participant in entrepreneurship itself. If agentic startups can proliferate across markets through shared infrastructure, this may create compounding advantages in data, workflows, and distribution. This is a bold bet on the future of entrepreneurship. We are proud to support the Feltsense team as they explore what autonomous company creation can look like at scale.

🚀 Telehealth, AI, and Growth, three forces colliding to reshape mental health startups. In my latest episode of The CTO Show With Mehmet Gonullu, I sat down with Corey Hart, Senior Director of Growth at Mentavi Health, to explore how he scaled behavioral health by 800%, why telehealth adoption exploded post-COVID, and how AI personalization (“B2Me”) is becoming the new standard in healthcare. We talked about: - The innovation behind decoupling diagnosis from treatment - Why founders often give up on success too early - The most misunderstood growth levers in healthcare startups - Why the Midwest is becoming a powerful but overlooked hub for innovation - The importance of community and giving before you take This one is packed with insights for founders, investors, and operators building in healthcare and beyond. 🎧 Available now on all podcast platforms + full video on YouTube. 👉 Links in the comments.

The Headline family is experiencing incredible momentum, and today our portfolio company DeepIP is announcing a $25M Series B, bringing total funding to $40M. This is the kind of company that doesn’t just add AI to a workflow, but it sets the standard for an entire category. The momentum speaks for itself: 1️⃣ 10x ARR growth in < 18 months 2️⃣ Trusted by 400+ law firms and leading corporate IP teams globally 3️⃣ 2M+ chats on the DeepIP platform We’ve had the chance to back FX (Francois-Xavier) L. and Edouard D., leading their Seed round with Headline. Watching them take on a problem as complex and high-stakes as patent work has been genuinely impressive. And working with them has been an absolute pleasure: these 2 are coupling very high ambition and humility. Tech built in Europe, but opening the US office very early and FX starting a life in NYC with his family with 0 hesitation in order to build a global category leader in the IP industry. What convinced me early is still what stands out today: patent teams don’t need another standalone AI tool. They need something that fits the way the work actually happens: documents, long-running matters, multiple stakeholders, and zero room for sloppy context handoffs. Big congrats to the whole DeepIP team + Korelya Capital, Balderton & Serena Proud that we’re doubling down at Headline and continuing the support for what’s next!

Today I facilitated a roundtable discussion with Anton Osika , CEO of Lovable , along with several other members of f.ounders club at Web Summit. The biggest takeaway was simple: there is no playbook. Everyone is trying to figure out how to embed AI and agentic workflows into both their products and their internal operations. Not as a “feature,” but as a new way of working. The founders who are moving fastest aren’t waiting for perfect strategy documents or long-term roadmaps. They are: • Experimenting rapidly • Creating internal champions who push change from within • Testing, iterating, and seeing what actually drives impact on a KPI This phase of AI adoption is less about theory and more about execution. It’s about learning in real time and allowing the organization to evolve through doing. Grateful for the conversation and energized by the pace of what’s coming next. #ai #websummit #agentic

This is truly the best time to build. Ben Broca proves you can build anything you can imagine with just 1 person. - New companies should be at least 80% driven by AI (marketing, ops, engineering) to move as fast as possible. - The last 20% is all taste/creativity/direction: you're still selling to humans even if AI drives the company. You still need to delight them - When you believe there's something you can't do, try solving it with AI even if it seems hard so you can learn and automate most of the processes. - Limitations: models will become more generalist but still need to have narrow scope to perform well today. Polsia itself has agents that report bugs/feature requests when talking with customers, then a PM agent that decides priorities, then an engineering agent that builds it. No excuses. Time to lock in.
