I run a small business, and am blown away by the amount of money wasted on tools we're not using post-pandemic. Refocusing spend on the products that are actually saving us time and money has been one of the most important things I've done in the past few months to get to positive cash flow during this trainwreck of a year. Thanks for the push Ramp!

haha as a 34 year old, @Nick Allen and @johnmcbride24, booze's impact on sleep and energy only gets more pronounced from here on out

I've been using Cutback Coach for a few months now and it's helped me noticeably cut back on my drinking. The SMS notifications cut through the noise, and are a quick, easy way for me to log how much alcohol I've had the previous day, without having to open up an app. Once I got into the routine, it became easy to take just a few seconds and a natural part of my morning.
Look forward to...

My sister has homeschooled her kids for 5+ years and I’ve seen how it’s made them more creative learners. Excited to see the innovation that the Primer team brings to this market.

Hey Kyle,
Exciting to hear so many international folks have been attracted to Outbound, and that growth remains steady. It's the most epic source of beta on the Internet (and inspiring you've made all this progress while bootstrapping).
Curious about the Pursuit Series (which looks awesome). How does it fit into the larger strategy, and if you classify Outbound as a media company, in what...

Really excited these guys continue to put in work here. Not the easiest business to build - they get folks excited to contribute super high quality content that rivals what you'd read in top magazines.
Pros: Best database of outdoor activities out there
Cons: Wish I could check off more of the trips I see on here!

I think this will be particularly well outside the United States, where so many Android users face super high airfare ticket prices. Congratulations Gillian and team!

Outsite Santa Cruz + Venice are on my list for next trip to West Coast. So impressive what their team has been able to do - this is a super challenging business and they are executing at a very high level.

For the millions of adults with parents who couldn't afford braces, direct to consumer Invisalign is an opportunity to get the straight teeth that have become a status symbol in America. The key is getting the end to end experience dialed in for the patient, and that's where the Candid team comes in. Top experience across product and customer service. Already ordered my set of Candid slingers...

Omni is going to be the company that finally solves peer to peer sharing. I've been active in the sharing economy since 2011, including time at Lyft, Collaborative Fund, and Getable, a startup that tried to build a marketplace for product rental - it simply wasn't possible without the liquidity of "owning" the supply. Omni has figured it out, with storage as the short play that unlocks...

This is a super exciting evolution of the Omni product, and an impressive one coming so soon from a relatively new company. I've been involved in the Sharing Economy (Getable (b2c marketplace for product rental), Collaborative Fund, Lyft) for 5+ years and this is one of the most potentially disruptive products I've seen since day 1. This is the team to pull it off and I look forward to seeing...

I'm a big fan of any tool that empowers freelancers / workers in the "gig economy". Activehours is a huge help for these folks, because it allows them to borrow against future earnings, interest and penalty free. I've lived paycheck to paycheck, and I know how difficult and stressful it can be.
I've also paid lots and lots of overdraft fees! So this new balance shield feature sounds really...
