👏👏
We’ve received notice that the Department of Commerce has lifted export controls on Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5. We'll begin restoring access tomorrow, and will share an update soon. We’re grateful to our users for their patience, and to everyone who worked with us on redeploying the models.

This team is killing it! Huge mission and amazing execution to drive better patient outcomes and higher provider efficacy!
Today we're announcing a $120 million Series C led by Menlo Ventures , bringing Assort Health's total funding to $222 million and our valuation to $1.2 billion. The number is a milestone. But it was never the point. Growing up, I was a patient transport volunteer. I helped people physically get to appointments and navigate a healthcare system that often didn't make sense to them. For some, simply having someone there to help made all the difference. Helping one patient get the care they needed was rewarding. But it was one person at a time. That experience has stayed with me. It's why Assort exists: to make exceptional healthcare accessible anytime, anywhere, for anyone, and to reach as many patients as possible. This funding is fuel for that mission. Every call, text, referral, form, appointment, and outreach creates context. Without Assort, context gets lost. Patients repeat themselves. Staff become the glue between systems that don't talk. Follow-ups slip. People fall through the cracks. Care gets delayed. Not because healthcare lacks information. Because it lacks continuity. What started as an AI agent answering phone calls has grown into a platform that schedules appointments, manages referrals, completes intake, proactively reaches patients, and helps healthcare organizations run the operational work for every visit. The part that matters most is that every interaction builds on the last. We call this Patient Journey Memory: turning disconnected touchpoints into one continuous conversation, so patients don't have to start over every step. Our brand film says it simply: Healthcare That Remembers. With this funding, we'll reach far more patients, serve many more healthcare organizations, keep building the product, and bring exceptional people onto the team. One full-circle detail: in the cofounder-dating questionnaire Jon Wang and I filled out before starting Assort, I wrote that building a company worth $100 million would be an incredible outcome. We've now passed that by more than 10x. It's a surreal milestone, and a reminder that the problem and opportunity are far bigger than we thought. None of this is ours alone. To the customers and partners who trusted us early, challenged our thinking, and shaped Assort: thank you. You took a chance on a young company, held us to a very high standard, and made us better than we could have become on our own. To @jpsanday and @mmurph from Menlo Ventures and all new and returning investors: thank you for believing in our team and our mission. And to the Assort team: building AI systems in healthcare is hard. Building them in a way that patients trust and healthcare organizations rely on every day is even harder. Thank you for how much you care, how hard you push, and the standard you continue to set. We're still early. There are more patients to reach and a lot to build. That's why we're excited. Come help make healthcare remember every patient. We're hiring. DM me!

First of its kind report from @Lovable on what’s going on in the world of “vibecoding” and how quickly and profoundly it’s unlocking creativity for non-technical people. 4 in 5 users of Lovable are non-technical. As @antonosika Osika says, this is opening up the “build economy.” Untapped, huge, transformational!
For most of software history, even if you understood a problem better than anyone, you still needed someone else to help you build the solution. That meant a lot of good ideas never became products. Today we’re sharing our first look at the global build economy: more than 50M projects built on Lovable and 720M monthly visits to Lovable-built projects. Ideas are becoming products, and products are turning into companies. The people building them are also different from what many would expect. They may not have a CS degree, venture capital, or a technical co-founder, but they have customer knowledge, industry context, and a clear sense of what needs to exist. It is still early, but the direction is clear: as this category matures, the impact will be greater than just more software. There will be more solutions, more companies, and more economic activity.

.@suno is an absolute phenomenon that continues to surprise on the upside! love companies that are leveraging AI’s infinite content generation capabilities to create new unique experiences and unleashed creative forces!
Thrilled to double down on @suno's $400M round, after leading its Series C last fall! Suno is making creation itself a form of entertainment. Millions of songs generated every day. This is the broader Menlo thesis: AI won't just change how content is produced, it'll change how people spend their time. We see it with Suno in music, @higgsfield_ai in video, @Lovable in solopreneurship, and @AnthropicAI across it all. Congrats to @MikeyShulman, @GeorgKucsko, @fut_ure, and the whole Suno team.

Huge thanks to our incredible community and investors for building alongside us. Read more from Mikey here: suno.com/blog/series-d-annou…

The Big Crunch is here. Companies are realizing: - their inference bill grew 10x in the last few months - another 10x growth will bankrupt them This is what @OpenRouter is for! The best market prices for each model, clear data & routers to help you choose the best OSS model

Congrats @AnthropicAI on an amazing round! Am in awe of the growth and execution to a $47B runrate. Up from $0 when we invested in 2023 and $9B at the beginning of the year. Valuation has gone from ~$5B to $960B over that period. Trying to think about which is more impressive...
We are thrilled to celebrate @Anthropic's $65B Series H at a $965B post-money valuation. Anthropic is Menlo's single largest and highest-conviction investment in our 50-year history — and it's not even close. This round marks our largest single investment in any round since our partnership began. Our relationship with @AnthropicAI, goes way back: → Invested in their Series C, 2023 — PRE-launch, PRE-revenue → Led their Series D, 2024 → Significant backers in every round since → And in July 2024, co-launched the $100M Anthology Fund with them to seed the next generation of AI-native companies Three years into this partnership, we continue to be blown away by everything they've built. $47B run-rate revenue. 40% enterprise LLM market share. Claude Opus 4.8 launching today. Web traffic from 16M → 290M monthly visits in 13 months. Enterprise AI and consumer AI. Both. Congratulations to @DarioAmodei, @DanielaAmodei. and the entire Anthropic team. You are building one of the most important companies of our generation.

We're seeing a Cambrian explosion of AI models, and it's happening on OpenRouter. The future of AI is neurodiversity: - Agents choosing the most cost-effective model/provider/tool for the task - Agents orchestrating multiple models for the smartest result - Advanced security and observability for the boundary between models Thanks to @CapitalG, @a16z, @MenloVentures, @nvidia, and our other backers. More on our Series B 👇
Today we’re announcing our $113M Series B led by @CapitalGVC. Over the last 6 months, weekly volume on OpenRouter grew from 5T to 25T tokens as AI rapidly shifts from experimentation into production. We’re excited for what comes next.

The talent at @AnthropicAI is ridiculous! Who’s next?!
Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.
