We’re ecstatic to welcome Jon Brick to our Design Team! ?? "The opportunity to work on an established product with great customers in a relatively young space is one of those “few-times-a-career” opportunities. We are shaping the future of the space and how engineering teams build great products. Additionally, I was blown away by the passion, experience, and empathy of the entire org. I don’t think I’ve experienced a team so focused on delivering value and solving real problems for our users - it was a huge motivating factor for me joining and I’m excited to be a part of the team!" - Jon on "Why Cortex?"

?? Scale x Cortex: Building Products People "Don't Need" ?? Thrilled to share our latest edition where Aryaman Banerjee and I had a great conversation with Anish Dhar about the challenges of creating entirely new product categories. "I was probably sending 1000s of cold emails a week to everyone I could think of... I'd get 2 replies, one would be 'not interested'" Despite this initial resistance, Cortex (backed by Sequoia Capital, IVP, Y Combinator, and Scale Venture Partners) grew from zero customers to a $470M valuation by mastering one crucial skill: turning skeptical "we don't need this" prospects into enthusiastic champions. Anish shares candid insights about: + Why technical validation isn't enough + How to identify and empower internal champions + Converting pain points into purchase orders + Building conviction when no market exists ??

As someone who knows the struggle of quickly needing to figure out who owns what, Cortex’s product really stands out. What I really appreciate is how it not only tackles everyday workflow challenges but also lets me customize solutions to fit each customer’s unique needs. It's inspiring to work with a tool that’s both - practical and adaptable. On top of that, the team is just as inspiring as the product. Everyone I met is eager to give 110% at work while having fun and a genuine respect for work-life balance.
