Katie Jacobs Stanton shared thisI’m incredibly optimistic about what AI can do in healthcare, from reducing administrative burden and lowering costs to fundamentally improving how we understand disease and design drugs. Huge congratulations to Elliott Green Niyum Gandhi and the team Dandelion Health on their Series A. They’re one of the most interesting platforms using high-fidelity clinical data and AI to redesign the system from the ground up. Better platforms lead to better health outcomes for everyone.Katie Jacobs Stanton shared thisWe are proud to have closed our Series A at Dandelion, and to have added investors who will genuinely help us take the next step in what we're building - a clinical AI powered drug development platform. Raising money matters, but only in the context of the problem you're trying to solve — and I'm particularly glad to welcome Healthier Capital and Colle Capital to that work. Both bring something rarer than capital: a deep understanding of the healthcare ecosystem and the scientific seriousness to help move it forward. That combination is harder to find than it should be, and we don't take it lightly. We are equally grateful to our existing partners Primary Venture Partners, Moxxie Ventures, and Convergent Ventures, whose continued conviction in what we're building means a great deal to the whole team. There's been a lot of justified enthusiasm about what AI is doing to healthcare - the administrative friction it's reducing, and those contributions are real. But the clinical science of drug development has remained largely untouched by this moment, and that gap is worth further contemplation and action. The trials that determine which drugs reach patients, at what doses, in which populations, are still being designed around disease trajectories and patient characteristics that were defined well before the therapies now reshaping medicine began doing so. In almost all indications, the underlying biology of who progresses, at what pace, and what that progression looks like in longitudinal data has been changing - and the infrastructure for trial design has not moved with it in any meaningful way. This means we have long, bloated and expensive trials. That's the kind of problem that doesn't present itself in high profile issues that need immediate solutions. It accumulates quietly until it becomes very expensive to ignore - that point has already been reached though few have the data to see it as of now. What we've been building at Dandelion is the solution to this issue. A platform that informs what's actually happening in patients before they ever reach a diagnosis - to understand the pre-disease window well enough that the trials designed to intervene in it are built against the world as it is, not as it was characterized a decade ago. We are now exceptionally well positioned to continue that work - using high fidelity clinical data and AI to develop treatments more precisely, for patients more accurately diagnosed. I'm grateful to the partners who understood why it needed doing, and the team that has made it possible.

Katie Jacobs Stanton shared thisIt's such a joy to work with Rob Goulding *again* (Google, Twitter & now Moxxie Ventures!). He's an amazing sales leader and coach to many of our founders. If you're an early-stage founder (even outside of Moxxie - we root for all founders!) and want to get some feedback and wise counsel from Rob, send him a note. I can't recommend him highly enough!Katie Jacobs Stanton shared thisA lot of my work with startup founders focuses on process. I would argue that no piece is more critical than Discovery. Here are my thoughts on how to engineer a Must-Have solution through deeply assessing your customer's needs. Shoutout to the strong group of founders at Moxxie Ventures who are always sharpening my skills.Discovery Isn't a Sales Stage. It’s Your Operating System.Discovery Isn't a Sales Stage.

Katie Jacobs Stanton shared thisScott Galloway has talked about how CMOs may become some of the biggest consumers of AI tokens. He’s absolutely right. Every CMO already knows the campaign they want to run. The problem is everything between the brief and launch: agencies, revisions, approvals, coordination. By the time it ships, the moment is gone. As a former CMO, I can’t tell you how much I wish I had this. That’s why I’m excited about what Lantern is building. Give the platform a brief and it generates personalized campaigns, sales collateral, nurture flows, microsites, ads, and more directly from your GTM data. Congrats David Bromberg 🏮 and the incredible team at Lantern! If you're a CMO or marketer and want to do explore vibe marketing, please let David or I know! cc some of my fave CMOs Suzanne Philion Dara Treseder Leslie Berland Josh Line Shannon Brayton Elisa Schreiber Doug Sweeny Luanne Calvert Josh G. Marian Lee Bindu Shah Lorraine Twohill Kristin Russel Meagen E.Katie Jacobs Stanton shared thisToday we're launching the next iteration of Lantern, the enterprise platform for vibe marketing. Every CMO knows the campaign they want to run. What kills it is everything between the brief and the launch. Agency rounds. Revisions. Legal. Six weeks later the campaigns go live and the moment's gone. Give Lantern agents a creative brief. Get back a full campaign in minutes: • Personalized account briefs for every AE • On-brand display ads • Live microsites • Nurture sequences • Email, social, and more It works because Lantern sits on top of your GTM data. The agents know your accounts, your personas, your brand, what's worked before. Briefs in. Campaigns out, on-brand, on-data, ready to ship. The results so far: • A leading life sciences platform: $25.3M in closed-won revenue attributed to Lantern in year one • WordPress: $12M in pipeline generated in their 60 days • 35% lift in win rates on deals where reps use Lantern collateral • 60% faster from brief to launch Want to see it? Text a Lantern agent: (650) 222-1296 and describe a campaign you want to run.

Katie Jacobs Stanton shared thisI couldn’t be prouder of the team at Overstory for being included in the TIME 100 Most Influential Companies of 2026. Overstory is helping utilities prevent power outages and wildfires at a critical moment. The grid was not built for the intensity of today’s storms and wildfire risks, but advances in remote sensing and AI now make it possible to direct limited resources where they can prevent failures before they happen. Today, some of the largest utilities in North America rely on Overstory’s vegetation intelligence to make these critical decisions. This recognition is a testament to a resilient, deeply mission-driven team proving that purpose and profits can coexist. And what an honor and legacy for Indra den Bakker, Overstory’s co-founder, who passed away tragically 2 years ago. Indra's vision continues to shape the company’s impact. 🙏Katie Jacobs Stanton shared thisTIME has named Overstory to the Time100 Most Influential Companies of 2026, and the Top 10 in Sustainability for our work helping utilities prevent power outages and wildfires. The TIME100 list honors companies whose impact, innovation, ambition, and success set new standards for the world. We’re incredibly honored to stand alongside transformative companies like Anthropic, Waymo, Signal, NVIDIA, and Novo Nordisk. This recognition reflects the urgency of the moment. Catastrophic wildfires and 100-year storms now happen every year, battering a grid never built to withstand them. Overstory helps utilities not only see risk before it becomes a headline, but also know exactly which trees, fuels, or assets pose the greatest threat to the communities they serve. Thank you, TIME, for the honor. And thank you to the determined leaders embracing this technology to build a safer, more resilient grid.

Katie Jacobs Stanton posted thisI just completed my first jury duty experience and it was awesome. While I’m a little bummed it wasn’t for *that* trial, it was a meaningful experience. Ordinary people from completely different walks of life, brought together to listen carefully, weigh evidence, debate fairness and make hard decisions together. It’s truly the bedrock of public service. We need more opportunities for Americans to sit in small rooms together and have real, honest conversations across differences. I was deeply impressed by my fellow jurors, who spoke respectfully, listened carefully, and worked hard to reach a fair decision together. In the end, we couldn’t get there and it resulted in a mistrial, which was unsatisfying for everyone. But it was also an honest and serious effort to do our civic duty well. Also worth noting: our judge, bailiff, DA, and prosecutors were all women and the jury was ~80% female. They were all wildly impressive and made the process clear and efficient. I want to be friends with them! So quick PSA, if you get that jury summons, don’t dread it. It’s fascinating and truly an honor and a privilege! 🇺🇸 ⚖️

Katie Jacobs Stanton shared this💜 This is a thoughtful, bipartisan effort from founders, investors, and operators across Colorado who care deeply about the state’s long-term economic strength and opportunity. Bravo to my dear friend Dan Caruso for leading this effort and Governor Jared Polis for engaging and signing on! Colorado is a great place to live and build enduring businesses!Katie Jacobs Stanton shared thisEnough is enough! That's the message 233 of Colorado's technology and business leaders are sending to Governor Jared Polis and our state's political leaders in an Open Letter called Ensuring Colorado's Innovative Future. Our signatories include 115 current or former CEOs, the CEOs of Colorado's 6 most recent IPOs, 112 founders, 60 partners across 20+ venture capital and investment firms, and civic leaders from across the state. Governor Polis agrees — and took the initiative to sign the Open Letter himself. Colorado should be the #1 innovation ecosystem between the coasts. We should be the top destination for entrepreneurs, investors, and business leaders migrating from the West Coast and Northeast. And no tech business should ever want to leave. Given all of Colorado's natural assets — our quality of life, our educated workforce, our central location, and the incredible tech foundation that's already been built — Colorado should be winning the competition for capital. Yet, we are losing ground. The Open Letter lays the blame for the negative momentum on our political leaders, while also offering to collaborate with them to course correct. Specifically, the Letter articulates nine concrete action items to get Colorado back on track. Governor Polis and I issued a joint press release that articulates his commitment to lead a joint effort. Colorado's tech and innovation ecosystem serves all the people of the Great State of Colorado. It funds our schools, strengthens our healthcare systems, sustains small businesses, creates jobs at every level, and provides the long-term economic opportunity and community stability for Coloradans. When we weaken this ecosystem through harmful rhetoric and misguided policy, we lose the foundation that supports quality of life and economic vitality across the state. Technology and innovation ecosystems run on confidence, well thought out policy, and positive momentum. We — the leaders of Colorado’s tech and business community — are committed to re-establish our mojo.

Katie Jacobs Stanton liked thisHad an absolute blast sitting down with Mat Vogels 🏴☠️ for his podcast. He's a great interviewer. Thank you for having me!Katie Jacobs Stanton liked this"People confusing a successful fundraise with success. A successful fundraise is just raising the bar. No one applauds for you at the Olympics until after you clear the bar. So that's what success is, building a profitable company is success. Don't get distracted." I sat down with Alex Roetter, Managing Director and General Partner at Moxxie Ventures, and this episode is a must-listen for any founder (fundraising or not). A few things we got into: 🙊 Why hiring a designer for your pitch deck is "a colossal waste of time" ✨ What Alex actually wants to see in a warm intro email (hint: it's not your traction) 💬 Question founders should ask VCs in the first meeting that most never do 🚀 How to maintain fundraising momentum without being pushy 💸 The difference between a "great company" and a "great venture investment" And so much more! If you're raising right now, or thinking about it, this one is worth your time. Link in comments 🎧

Katie Jacobs Stanton liked thisKatie Jacobs Stanton liked thisToday, Bluedot's next chapter begins with Epic Charging. The hardest part of building is knowing when to evolve, when to hand off, when the next chapter needs a different vehicle. When we started Bluedot, we had one goal: solve a real problem for drivers, and eventually for fleets, and build something people loved. We did that. We grew to serve the largest enterprise fleets in the US, including Rivian, Hertz, Avride, City of San Francisco, City of Seattle, Duke Energy and many more (and more to come). I met incredible people in the fleet industry, volunteered in communities, became a fleet influencer, watched deals appear in my text messages, and made real friends across the industry. And somewhere along the way, the ambition outgrew the vehicle. I grew up in Turkey. Ranked in top ~100 in the national university entrance exam amongst 3 million people, top of every class, always the kid asking what was on the other side of the wall. I never learned how to stay in a shell, in my city, or in my place. The startup bug hit me in college through a string of hackathon wins, great friends who started building early on, lots of projects, multiple case studies and university clubs. Arriving in the US in 2019 for a summer program made one thing obvious: I was not different, and dreams were only meant to go bigger. That instinct is what told me Bluedot's next chapter would have great potential with another home. We always thought about land and expansion. Serving our customers 100x better at 100x the scale. Epic gives Bluedot the platform to do exactly that, fusing their CPMS with our payment and access layer into the only end-to-end solution fleet operators have ever had. The brand continues and the customers will only get more. As for me, I am wrapping up my time now to make sure Epic Charging can continue to drive significant value for our customers. After which I will take a short break to recharge and recover after an incredible 4 years. I will come back with bigger questions, bigger problems and taking bigger bets.

Katie Jacobs Stanton reacted on thisKatie Jacobs Stanton reacted on thisIf you’re at Boulder Startup Week, I’m pretty easy to spot. I’m the one rolling around in a hot pink walker. Not exactly the "founder look" I planned for this week, but definitely the one I need right now. But there’s a reason I’m here, even mid-recovery. Right now, when a patient is discharged, they get a paper plan and a hotline. That’s it. The result? 🚨 $58B+ annually in avoidable hospital readmissions. 🏥 1 in 5 patients are readmitted within 30 days. 🫂 60M+ caregivers are flying blind, waiting for a crisis to happen. The problem isn’t care-it’s timing. At LOWKEY, we’ve built a behavioral intelligence platform that learns your normal rhythm and flags meaningful changes over time passively, using just your phone. A simple set it an forget app. We catch the "quiet" signals before they can become a crisis without creepy surveillance or the cost of a wearable. Early Beta Traction: 📈 87.5% 30-day retention 🤝 ~3 supporters per user (Natural network effect) ✅ 70%+ invite acceptance rate People are already acting on signals before they become emergencies. We are closing the visibility gap for families, value-based systems, and insurers who are want to reduce readmissions and need access to outcome data. I’m looking for the right investors. Not just capital, but partners who understand that behavior intelligence, early awareness and key relationships can improve outcomes for all. If you’re in Boulder, come find the pink walker and say hi. If not, let’s talk in the DMs. #BoulderStartupWeek #HealthTech #Caregiving #ValueBasedCare #FounderLife #LOWKEY

Katie Jacobs Stanton liked thisKatie Jacobs Stanton liked thisA Stanford sophomore just built a business to $10 million revenue in 2 weeks, alone. For the past decade, I've watched Andrew Feldman, Sean Lie and the Cerebras team hire some of the most extraordinary engineers in the industry. Hundreds of them. People who could stare at a problem nobody had ever solved and go solve it. The instinct for finding those people is the rarest gift I've seen in a founder. Andrew has more of it than anyone I know. It's a big part of how Cerebras became Cerebras. Then a few weeks ago, I had lunch with Quinn McIntyre. Quinn runs one of the best entrepreneurship programs in the country at Stanford, and he was telling me about a sophomore in his network. They were working alone and spent 2 weeks building a social app into something with 10+ million dollars in revenue. I sat with that for a minute. The tools today are making a lot more people into 10xers. There's a real leveling up for the middle third - a democratization. But the top third who already had the gift, they're not 100xers anymore. They're 1,000xers. Maybe 10,000xers. In some ways, the pool of talented people just got much, much bigger. But the pool of exceptional people also got more valuable, which makes having a nose for finding them matter more than ever.

Nearly half of foster youth in the U.S. experience homelessness by the time they turn 18. It’s a sobering reminder of how underfunded and undersupported our foster care system is. At the same time, we’re living through a powerful moment of technological transformation—where AI and digital tools are reshaping education, opportunity, and access. But unless we’re intentional, innovation risks leaving behind the very communities who need it most. That’s why I’m proud to share our latest commitment: $2 million to Flourish Fund to support nonprofits equipping youth aging out of foster care with the tools and resources they need to succeed in the workforce. These investments are about more than technology. They’re about dignity and ensuring every community has a chance to flourish—whether you’re a student in a classroom or a young adult stepping out of foster care into independence. Because innovation only matters if it lifts everyone. Congrats, Dan Vogel and team! And special shout out to Justin Steele who helped us conceptualize this opportunity and bring it to life.

Trying something new this week - a studio industry roundup with my take on what matters. The studio model is no longer an experiment being run in a handful of places. It is infrastructure being built across geographies, sectors, and institutional types. 5️⃣ stories from the past seven days: 1️⃣ OSS Ventures hit a EUR 40M first close on a EUR 75M follow-on fund -- capital raised specifically to back the 30 companies their studio created since 2019. The "build then fund" lifecycle is maturing. B'More Venture Studio with a similar thesis: studio operations first, then dedicated capital to scale what's working. 2️⃣ Delta40 raised $20M from 54 investors across 13 countries to launch Africa's first integrated venture studio and fund. The LP base is almost entirely DFIs and foundations. Impact capital is discovering the studio model as a deployment vehicle, something I seeing across geographies (conversations with Michael Bob Starr and Damias McDonald this week alone) 3️⃣ Start Holdings launched Start.vc out of NYC and Barcelona after a $200M EV infrastructure exit. Another operator-turned-studio-founder. This is the pattern we see quite often in our work at 9point8 -- experienced operators like Jason Goldsmith who've built and exited deciding the studio model is how they want to build next. 4️⃣ UBC HATCH admitted 10 new deep-tech spinouts for Winter 2026 -- mostly climate tech. University venture builders are quietly becoming one of the fastest-growing segments. Follow Evan Allen and Jaimie Testai to keep track of its rapid evolution. 5️⃣ The INVEST Act is advancing through the Senate. If passed, it expands qualifying VC fund size from $10M to $50M and loosens general solicitation rules for accelerator and university events. For studio-funds -- and for folks in the The Venture Studio Forum community tracking policy -- this could be the most significant capital formation legislation since the JOBS Act. If this roundup format is useful, I'll keep it going. What other noteworthy news hit your desk this week, and what stood out to you?

AI search is emerging as a meaningful new lead channel. India-founded startup Gushwork recently raised $9 million in a seed round led by Susquehanna International Group and Lightspeed Venture Partners to help businesses surface inside AI-driven discovery platforms such as OpenAI, Perplexity AI, and Google. The company reports more than 300 paying customers and approximately $1.5 million in annualized recurring revenue a few months after launching its AI-search-focused product, with strong recent growth and a substantial waitlist. According to its internal data, around 20% of customer traffic comes from AI-driven search and chat platforms, generating a disproportionately higher share of inbound leads. What’s unfolding is less hype and more structural evolution. Search behavior is expanding beyond traditional results pages into AI summaries, conversational interfaces, and AI-assisted browsing. Buyers are increasingly asking models direct, decision-oriented questions, which shifts visibility from keyword ranking toward being cited inside generated answers. That requires brands to build machine-readable authority through structured content, credible references, and consistent topical depth rather than relying solely on conventional SEO tactics. For marketing and tech leaders, the implication is pragmatic. Traffic volume may matter less than intent quality, as AI-driven discovery appears to capture users further along in the buying journey. Execution-heavy optimization work is becoming more automatable through AI agents, while human teams focus more on positioning and differentiation. High-consideration B2B sectors may feel the impact earlier, given their research-driven purchasing processes. The broader takeaway is simple: as AI systems increasingly mediate discovery, brand visibility will depend not only on ranking in search engines but on being recognized and surfaced by large language models when buyers ask who to trust. https://lnkd.in/egvj4PnM

Anthropic is investing $100M in its Claude Partner Network, and is setting the tone for new partner programs in the AI era. Yes, Anthropic is partnering with the biggest names in tech and services, but they also "see a massive opportunity for smaller partners and smaller businesses looking to add Claude to their technology stacks", which should be welcome news to the many boutique and AI-native services firms looking to get into this ecosystem. This CRN interview with Steve Corfield, Anthropic's head of partners, is worth a read. https://lnkd.in/e6WW3TzM Steve's comment that they want to "demonstrate that Anthropic is the most committed AI company in the world to the partner ecosystem" is one of the many reasons they're a key player in our Tercera 30 research.

Inside the "One Big Beautiful Bill" are various, critical proposals that would reshape energy and technology policy. Buried within are two provisions that could radically impact our Ai development trajectory and global competitive advantage. Scope3's Aya Saed Director of Ai Policy & Strategy breaks it down in her latest substack (link in comments). "The reconciliation bill has become an inadvertent test of whether American policymakers understand what it actually takes to lead in the AI age. So far, the answer appears to be no." #scope3 #sustainablegrowth #ai
