Since launching
@magicaltome
at the end of September, we’ve grown to >1M creators– the fastest ever for a productivity tool.
And today, we announced $43M in funding led by
@lightspeedvc
to accelerate building the first enterprise-grade, AI-native storytelling platform. 🧵

Something we're excited about with GPT-4 is the larger context window so we can send more content and personalization with prompts.

can ingest an entire Wikipedia article, understand it, and output a summarized tome with just the key points. More to come soon.

Today, I’m excited to announce that you can try Tome (

@hliriani
and I have been building Tome—a modern storytelling tool for work, grounded in the simple idea that we shouldn’t spend more time designing slides than we do crafting a point. 🧵

We believe that the medium is the message. As a result, we're dubious of 1:1 translations of documents to presentations. That said, using Tome's advanced document understanding + GPT-4 - we can now take the essence of a document and transform it into a presentation. Now live.
It’s here. Starting today, Tome can turn your docs into presentations in seconds.
Your job: the great idea.
Tome’s job: transforming it into a compelling story.

Now, if you try a prompt in
@magicaltome
, we'll predict multiple different page goals (or rhetorical approaches), show you those goals and then generate multimodal content with different layouts for each one. An extension of the mind 🧠
We’ve made it easier to explore new ways to express your ideas in Tome.
Now, when you enter a prompt into the command bar, Tome will generate 4 distinct page variations—each offering a different approach to your topic, informational hierarchy, and design layout.

Everyone hates decks. But we built Tome to be a lot more than a deck substitute. We created Tome to unlock anyone’s ability to tell a compelling story, because too often, our ideas get judged on a presentation layer – not on substance – and everyone misses out.

Just in time for our enterprise SaaS data integration diagrams in sales tomes.
Seriously, this feature has the polish of a design tool and the ease of use of a social media creative tool. It's the thing I always wanted as someone who couldn't draw but needed to present a lot.
Adding and editing drawing tiles just got a lot smoother.

Having a product and design focused co-founder was a hard thing to explain when we first started. We got a couple of, "I only invest in technical founders" types of rejections. The approach is starting to make sense now when people pick up
@magicaltome
and use it.
One perhaps unsurprising observation about design-founder companies (though granted sample size still small): they seem to hire more designers sooner!
Thinking this week about

Can't think of a more relevant time to build financial instruments with transparency and self-custody. Great Tome too.
The collapse of a centralized casino actually demonstrated the need for crypto (self custody, transparency etc.)
But what are the actual use cases of crypto and why does it matter?
I'm doing a deep dive on one of them: DeFi lending
