This is a really neat group to be part of. I enjoyed reflecting on building in voice AI right now, and am looking forward to hearing the other voices!

We are incredibly excited to announce our investments in two companies paving the way for the multimodal data stack! We are thrilled to partner with Eventual and LanceDB as they revolutionize the way that multimodal data is processed and stored in the AI era. Eventual is announcing their seed round, led by CRV, as well as their Series A, led by Felicis, bringing their total funding to $30M. It's been a privilege to work with Sammy Sidhu and Jay Chia as part of this journey. The team at LanceDB is also announcing their $30M Series A, led by Theory Ventures, with continued support from CRV. We are honored that Chang She and Lei Xu chose us as their partners at the seed. It's been amazing to see folks across the data and AI ecosystem choose to store their data in LanceDB and process it with Daft. Teams at Midjourney Runway Amazon Essential AI Together AI are already moving onto the multimodal data stack. More to come!
