SimpleClosure

Scenes from an epic #SFTechweek fireside.

Live at The Melody SF for the Zero to Unicorn session with
@EricSimons, @boltdotnew, @Simple_Closure, @descopeinc, @UnicornerNews @Arek

Selling company data is arguably the hottest topic in the startup space right now. Our panel on What Your Company Data is Worth at @Techweek_ starting now #sftechweek

We're live at The Founder Reset for SF @Techweek_ !

Spending the day at The Melody with Unicorner, Deck, and @descopeinc talking about lessons learned from building a second time, what company data is worth, and what it takes to build something big.

More to come from today's conversations!

I had tears watching this.

For any founder out there, this is a must watch.

I’ve been there myself, and this captures exactly why we do what we do at @Simple_Closure.

Close clean. Begin again.

Not-so-breaking news: we’ve been doing this for a while.

As a leading startup dissolution advisor, we’re building AssetHub, a fast-growing marketplace connecting AI labs with real-world data and code from companies that have actually operated.

Sounds like we should talk, @elonmusk @SpaceXAI

Half of the venture-backed companies coming to us right now are software or IT-services startups. A year ago, that number was 44%.

@WSJ covered this shift in a piece on the "SaaSpocalypse," the wave of software companies restructuring or winding down as AI reshapes the category.

Our CEO @doriyona spoke with @KateClarkTweets about what we're seeing on the ground.

Today we introduced the SimpleReset, a matcha latte created as a small reminder for founders to pause before the next push.

Now, we’re bringing that idea to life. 🧘‍♀️

On June 11, we are hosting a drop-in wellness pop-up at @UseCorgi Cafe in San Francisco for founders, builders, operators, creatives, and anyone preparing for a big moment.

Building a company can be exhilarating, exhausting, and all-consuming. We wanted to create a space where people can step away from the pressure for a moment, recharge, and get grounded.

Come by for the SimpleReset, plus sound healing, tarot readings, 10-minute chair massages, founder clarity sessions, and a headphone meditation bar.

Whether you’re gearing up for YC Demo Day, building toward something new, or just need a reset, we’d love to see you there.

- June 11
- 1–4:30pm
- Corgi Cafe

We spend a lot of time helping people close one chapter and begin the next.

So we made a drink for that moment in between.

Introducing SimpleReset. SimpleClosure's drink, now at the @UseCorgi Cafe in San Francisco.

It's a small thing. A deliberate pause. A clear head before whatever comes next.

If you're in SF, come try it. And if you've ever closed something —a company, a chapter, a career—you'll know exactly what this drink is for.

Rain or shine, we kicked off #LATechWeek this morning with an energizing sauna + cold plunge session.

Thank you to everyone who joined us bright and early.
Excited for everything else @Techweek_ has in store!

The future of LegalTech showed up today at @Techweek_ #SFTechWeek

AI isn't just changing legal. It's redefining what in-house teams can actually accomplish.

That was the through-line at our panel today, with Mitzi Chang (@goodwinlaw), @rexsalisbury, Mike Wu (@cartainc), and Noah Small (SimpleClosure), who unpacked where this is all heading.

Shoutout to @KellyLSoderlund for moderating and to everyone who showed up ready with questions.

Missed it? Check out the highlights below 👇 and catch us next week for three more events at #LATechWeek!

What some might call an emotional rollercoaster, we call the founder journey. 🎢

No better way to kick off #SFTechWeek than a full room of founders talking openly about the highs, lows, and everything in between of building a startup.

Big thanks to our panelists @FiatGrowth, @fifteenth_tax , and Stream for joining us and sharing their stories.

Here’s to founders supporting founders.

“InfinityVentures’ ⁦ Jonker ⁩ believes that SimpleClosure is building a platform ‘around a process that has historically been manual and cumbersome.’ Plus, its mission benefits the whole venture ecosystem”

Great deep-dive from ⁦@bayareawriter⁩ techcrunch.com/2024/02/27/vcs…

🌱 Exciting news: Just months after our public launch, SimpleClosure successfully closed our seed round, raising $4M in growth funding! Huge thanks to our incredible investors and team for making this milestone possible.

So what’s next? SimpleClosure has already increased revenue more than 14x and our customer base by more than 6x. This funding propels us forward to increase headcount and build the best platform possible. 🙌

Grateful for the support from our amazing investors and the incredible journey ahead. This is just the beginning – stay tuned for more exciting updates as we continue to innovate and grow! Onward to making closures as seamless as beginnings! 🌐🌟 #SeedRaise 🚀🦄🐔

I’m starting a startup that helps other startups shut down 🎯

“As a founder you never stop to think about what happens if things don’t work out. It’s not that people don’t shut down. It’s that people don’t like talking about shutting down—it’s almost as if it’s taboo” –@doriyona⁩ ⁦in @pymnts⁩ pymnts.com/startups/2023/…

Failure is a part of life, and many founders who don’t succeed once do try, try, and try again. [But as] it turns out, shutting down a startup is not easy.

Enter SimpleClosure.
