From the pool to the trading floor — thank you NYSE! ⛱️ ⛱️ ⛱️

Thank you Harry, and the entire team at 20VC, for having Eiso on the show this weekend! We're biased, but this is a must listen for everyone who wants to better distill the race we're all in — from compute needs to the importance of data, especially synthetic — or anyone who wants to join us and understand why we work like we do 💜 Spotify: https://lnkd.in/dn4Egr23 YouTube: https://lnkd.in/d-ubYSCd

Thank you Nasdaq for featuring us on your Times Square billboard today! To succeed in building the future, we must not only succeed at moving the technology forward, we must create a company with a powerful enough economic engine to fund the endeavor. We so appreciate all the support received throughout the day from our investors, early customers, and the whole community. Thank you Nasdaq and Redpoint for highlighting this milestone 🎉

Today, after 18 months building behind-the-scenes, we are excited to announce a $500 million Series B, that allows us to make progress towards AGI and continue building the world's most capable AI for software development. Led by Bain Capital Ventures, this investment supports an aggressive go-to-market approach (more soon!), powers our new 10k GPU cluster, and allows us to continue to build our rockstar applied research, engineering and go-to-market teams — [email protected] 👀 poolside is changing software for everyone in the world, starting with developers and currently piloting with the largest enterprises in the world. Our proprietary foundation model and unique approach, Reinforcement Learning from Code Execution Feedback (RLCEF), enhances the coding capabilities of large language models, and we’re staking our place in the race to AGI with this approach. Starting with development teams at the Global 2000 and in the public sector, we are pressure-testing our theory against the highest standards of security and privacy, in complex environments with incredibly large code and knowledge bases. The ability to deploy in such environments has been designed since day 1, fully embedded into poolside’s early technical and product decisions. Building a foundation model is capital-intensive and compute-heavy, and requires large investments over time. Thank you to our incredible investors for getting us to the starting line Adams Street Partners, B Capital , BAM Elevate, Bpifrance, Capgemini, Capital One Ventures, Citi Ventures, Dorsal, DST Global, eBay Ventures, Ericsson, Fin Capital, HSBC Ventures, Lakestar, LG Technology Ventures, NVIDIA, Premji Invest, Schroders Capital, Inovia Capital, SentinelOne, SoftBank Investment Advisers, StepStone Group, WINSLOW CAPITAL and of course to Felicis and Redpoint!
