    @ScribeHow just crossed $100M ARR. Today, our 90,000 enterprise customers include nearly half the Fortune 500. I shared this news with @jonfortt on @CNBC earlier today, but I still vividly remember our first deal for $7K! I’m proud of our team and grateful for our customers.

    We just raised our $75M Series C led by @stepstonegroup, making @ScribeHow a $1.3B unicorn. But that’s not the part I’m most proud of. The funding isn’t the story — what we DO with it is. I set out to change how the world actually works. I started Scribe with one belief:

    We didn’t raise our Series C at a $1.3B valuation for the headline. We did it to change how the world works. Today’s announcement changes everything. I’m thrilled to announce Scribe Optimize, the newest product on our Workflow AI platform. Today, more than 5 million people use

    I was 8-months pregnant 🤰 when we closed and announced @ScribeHow's $30M funding When I was approached about doing the round, my first thought was: “Is this the right time for our company to raise?” 🧵👇

    Tldr: @ScribeHow launched! We’re in 100+ countries in 10s of thousands of orgs. And we raised $30m to support our community and customers. (...also, we’re definitely hiring.) Scribe to #sharehowto in seconds

    Wrote an article in @TechCrunch today about something I've seen so many SaaS startups get wrong (or right, just a bit too late). Selling into the enterprise. Yes, it can be daunting. No, it doesn't have to be hard. Yes, you should start now.

    Yesterday, we announced @ScribeHow's $75M Series C at a $1.3B valuation. But tomorrow is what I’m really fired up about 🔥 Because we’re announcing what I’ve dreamt about since day one — From those early investor pitches, to our first product launch, to the late nights

    A random sampling of all the unsolicited inbound you get the day after announcing a fundraise: - City governments on why you should relocate HQ to them - Private wealth managers calling to 'congratulate' you - VC's on why you should take their $$ next time

    I used to walk through Times Square every morning as a Wall Street intern. It always felt like the place people came to do big things. Today, @ScribeHow is up on the @Nasdaq screen in Times Square. It’s surreal — and deeply meaningful. We started as a handful of people with

    Just because you're product-led doesn't mean you don't have to sell. It just means you sell differently. In ways that are actually a lot higher leverage, imho. Done right, product-led is a salesperon's dream.
