Tremendous

An angel investor's take on life and business

If you want to know where technology is headed, look at what the smartest founders use. Here are the tools my startups are loving right now:

Delve

Delve automates compliance for SOC 2, HIPAA and more. Delve can get you compliant and ready to close big deals. 

I first heard about Delve when one of my startups used it a while back. Now, that startup is closing huge enterprise deals. 

Without compliance certification from Delve, they couldn’t have done it. 

Cursor

The most crazed builders I know use Cursor. Crazed in a good way: the kind of guys who work 14 hours a day and ship new features constantly. 

Cursor uses AI to make coding easier. Cursor has helped my startups massively increase productivity. Any company not using it is risking their entire business. 

Anthropic

A marketplace startup I invested in recently started automating some of their onboarding and customer support. They chose Anthropic as the best tool for the job. 

Anthropic’s API’s tend to produce better, more natural sounding results than other models. And since Cursor uses Anthropic as well, this AI lab scores twice on this list!

SimpleClosure 

I hope you don’t have to use this one. 

But the reality is, most startups don’t make it. And if it’s time to close your company, you want to make sure it’s done right. 

SimpleClosure can handle all the legal aspects of closing your startup. I had a company go through this process recently and SimpleClosure made it quick and easy. 

Leaving the corporate entity hanging around can mean you still need to do tax and regulatory filings. Spare yourself that and handle it the right way!

Wrap-Up

Highly successful early stage founders are the earliest of early adopters. They’re looking for any advantage over their competition. Watch what they’re doing, and you’ll see the trend before everyone else does. 

When you help my startups, you help me. So I’m grateful to these companies!

I’m heading off on vacation today. The next blog will be next Friday, June 20. 

Talk to you soon!
