Shiva Rajaraman shared thisExcited to support the Xoogler community as a Key Studio mentor alongside some fantastic Google alumni in partnership with the Google AI Futures fund. Exciting time to build on Gemini with early access, credits, and funding. Applications close July 15. Deets below.Shiva Rajaraman shared thisKey Studio is the most ambitious thing Kushagra Shrivastava & Chris Fong ever built together. It's a first-of-its-kind AI incubator designed specifically for Xoogler founders — combining early access to Google's most advanced AI models, access to capital, cloud credits and the power of a network that only Xoogler can provide. Bloomberg announced this incubator today https://lnkd.in/g6m6GYiV We built it in partnership with Google's AI Futures Fund. And we couldn't be more proud of what that partnership makes possible. "Through this new partnership with Key Studio, we're thrilled to enable Xooglers as they explore next-generation AI applications. As a former Xoogler myself, I know firsthand the depth and power of their community." — Jon Silber, Co-Founder & Director, Google AI Futures Fund Why now? We've watched talented Xooglers leave Google full of ideas and momentum — and then work with the community to validate their idea, access capital and find customers. Key Studio brings it all together. Selected founders receive: 1. Up to $350,000 in Google Cloud and AI credits 2. Up to $100,000 in funding 3. Priority access to Gemini and pre-release Google AI models not yet available to the public 4. Full access to the Key AI platform for warm introductions and community 5. Mentorship from senior Google and AIFF leaders 6. The full weight of a 35,000-person Xoogler.co network that genuinely wants to see you win Marissa Mayer joins as a founding mentor and participant We're also incredibly honored to share that Marissa Mayer — Google's first female engineer, former head of Search, Maps, Gmail, and Google News, and former CEO of Yahoo — is joining Key Studio as a founding mentor and program participant. "Google's legacy of innovation is an inspiration for the whole technical industry. Key Studio provides the ideal modern extension of that legacy, giving Google alumni access to frontier AI models and an executive network with experience operating at scale." — Marissa Mayer, CEO, dazzle ai What this means for the community For us, Key Studio is the most concrete expression yet of what we started building Key AI to do. Our thesis has always been that the most powerful asset a professional has isn't their resume — it's their network. And the most powerful thing we can build is the infrastructure that turns that network into leverage. Key Studio puts that thesis to work in the most high-stakes context we can imagine: helping exceptional founders build the next generation of AI-first companies. Applications are open now. 1.

Shiva Rajaraman reacted on thisThe Dynatrace acquisition of Arize closed today and we couldn’t be more excited about the combined future! Aparna and I started Arize 6+ years ago with a simple proposition that headlined our seed deck: “We Make the World’s AI Work” We made a bet years ago that the explosion of AI would require bespoke infra tools. We knew AI systems weren’t going to behave like traditional software because we believed teams were building the next generation of intelligence. The visibility into why something failed simply wasn’t going to be straightforward. That bet became the market’s first AI Observability platform, and with it, AI evaluations were born. We also bet that orders of magnitude more AI products would ship and that thousands of them would see the light of production. We believed so deeply in the importance of this problem we named the company Arize, symbolizing our mission to stand up AI and bring it to life in the real world. Fast forward to 2026. The world has changed dramatically. Every company in the world is scaling up its use of agents, AI is everywhere and agents are reshaping business after business. Where is AI going? Agents are transforming the Observability market from measurement to action. We are moving to a world where AI and software systems will continually improve. The foundation for continuous improvement is the data that describes what your system did, logs and traces, which will guide agents as they take action to fix systems. Arize was built as an agent-first Observability and Evaluation platform. Dynatrace brings depth in tracing and logging software systems that provide the data to drive these agents. These two areas just belong together if we are going to build the future systems that continuously improve. Some thank you’s To the Arize team. Startups are hard in normal markets. We built infrastructure for a market that kept changing under our feet, and this team kept listening to customers, kept shipping, and kept believing. You turned an idea into the category leader. To Aparna. For six years we have worked on this product nonstop, through every stage of company-building and life. You never slowed down and never stopped raising the bar. There is no Arize without Aparna. To our customers, who have trusted us with their most important AI systems before this category existed. You have made the product better every single day. To our investors, and early believers. Thank you – Dharmesh Thakker (Battery), Ashu Garg (Foundation Capital), Brett Wilson (Swift Ventures), Morgan Gerlak (TCV), and John Cordo (Evolution). Jason Mendel and Jaya Gupta have been instrumental in our journey in so many ways. And to the open source community around Phoenix and OpenInference. Developer trust and open standards are the foundation this category gets built on. The power of connecting Arize and Dynatrace is the potential to truly deliver on the vision we started the company with years ago. Excited for the next chapter!Shiva Rajaraman reacted on thisOur acquisition of Arize AI is complete. Arize builds for AI engineers, with tracing, evaluation, and experimentation that shows how an AI application or agent behaved, what context it retrieved, which tools it called, and whether the result held up. Dynatrace brings observability across applications, infrastructure, user experience, and business processes. Together, that's full-lifecycle AI observability. We're thrilled to welcome Jason Lopatecki, Aparna Dhinakaran, and the entire Arize team to Dynatrace!

Shiva Rajaraman reacted on thisShiva Rajaraman reacted on thisI never thought we'd raise $9.2M for Hypernatural. In fact, when Taylor and I incorporated the company in spring of 2023, we were still reeling from watching a slam-dunk term sheet evaporate before our eyes and, unbeknownst to us, were also weeks away from being rejected by Y Combinator. 😰 The funny thing is, the answer that turned those early non-investors off is exactly what continues to make Hypernatural work: No, we're not building a foundation model. We're building a video creation platform. In those early days, I can't tell you how many times I watched a potential investor lean back in their chair, or pass the question-asking off to their junior associate, or start eating their off-screen lunch once I said those simple words. One VC even DMed Taylor while I was pitching them solo to try and poach him to another startup! 😱 It was...not an ego-supportive time. 😅 But rather than turning us off of the problem of integrated video creation, it hardened our belief that what customers really needed was something the whole market was missing. Not another slick demo. Not another foundation model. Not another way to make single shots. Not another way to cut up footage you already have. An integrated video storytelling tool that lets you bring your whole vision to life. A lot has changed at Hypernatural over time, but this focus, on customer needs rather than the Current AI Thing, has never wavered. And ultimately this focus is what brought us our customers, our partners, our team, and yes, that $9.2M. So if you want to make great videos that actually work for your story, go try Hypernatural now, and don't forget to let me know what what you're making! And if you're a founder trying to raising venture funding, well, I've got some lessons on that front too. 😄
