- we did a thing :) super proud of our team today blog.dover.io/announcing-dov…
- I created a boring hiring software. Yet we hit #2 on Product Hunt without an agency Here's every thing we did before and during our launch:
- Replying to @pitdesi and @theinformationyeah, their responses were unexpectedly tone deaf. it's funny because the actual story (the crazy structure of the potential raise) would've made a great story!
- It's always fun looking through all the people I've recommended to YC over the years. 4 of these are $1b+ companies now!
00:00 - Today we’re launching Dover Autopilot: spin up a world-class outbound recruiting motion in minutes. I've spent the past 4 years building @DoverHq. We’ve helped Scale AI, Stripe, Vanta and 400+ other co's make 2,000+ hires. But we were often too expensive for startups… 1/

- "YC is the best program for creating top-end entrepreneurs that has ever existed" - @pmarca This is why I was so honored to host the first-ever YC-sponsored alumni event outside of SF. Looking forward to hosting many more in the future!
- I asked GPT-4 to come up with puns. Then I fed them into Midjourney to create some crazy images. See if you can guess the pun behind each pic... (Hint: they are very corny) 🧵
- Replying to @lizwesselevery recruiting tech founder gives this advice 😅 recruiting is a universal problem and engineers can't believe it hasn't been solved yet. but so much of the solution isn't actually a technical challenge. going to write a long blog post about this one day...
- find someone who looks at you like @loganbartlett looks at @tryramp (from notboring.co/p/ramps-double…)
