Today we’re announcing our $40M Series A, led by @AirStreet, with participation from @MadronaVentures and @Creandum. Most of us leave one of the biggest decisions of our lives almost entirely to chance: how we spend our time at work. 🧵

Proud to have backed @Jackandjillai's $40M Series A led by @airstreet. It takes total funding to $60M, ten months after a $20M Seed led by @creandum. We backed J&J at pre-seed. Since then, they have scaled insanely fast, including across the US. Huge congrats to the team.

Scaleups have a big operational headache. Agents are a 100x technology, but how do they bring that to their team and ways of working? We have a limited # of pre-release licenses, so it is essential to apply early. 👉luma.com/mpgrt9yj @OpenAI , @atomico, @McKinsey
