Congrats to @get_sphere on their $21m series A led by a16z!

People see the flashy headline, but @nrudder_ has one of the toughest stories of grit and determination I’ve seen at YC. Even people that believed in him in his last business left the company for dead.

Replying to @aaron_epstein

Nick and his cofounder applied with an edtech business that they grew to $300k+ revenue a year after YC. But they lost conviction that it would ever be huge after realizing that it wasn't going to be scalable, and they decided to pivot.
