Last week Lei Du participated as a judge for EchoHer and 42px Media's Pitch Perfect during #SFTechWeek. The pitching founders' energy and creativity remind us why investing in innovation is so exciting! A big thank you to the organizers, EchoHer and 42px Media, for putting together such an incredible event. We also want to give a shoutout to our fellow judges, Mala Ramakrishnan, Vince Lane, and Hardik Jagda – it was an honor to be alongside such a great group of thoughtful investors. Thank you to Qianwen Chen for inviting us 🤩
Shruti Mishra Hosted "Pitch Perfect: Your Idea’s Big Break!" yesterday at #SFTechWeek where I had the honor of being on the judge panel alongside Vince Lane Hardik Jagda and Lei Du. What a glorious stimulation of the intellect with the onslaught of the most brilliant and diverse founders you can encounter only in the SF Bay Area. We had the most amazing time analyzing technology and go-to-market of bullet-proof armor cars in Brazil, to mortgage workflow automation using AI, to face swapping software, to South Asian classical music to replace your Spotify to an endless list of 20+ startups. The evening was filled with brilliance! The passion and commitment of every founder was so inspiring, it had me coming back to my desk to roll up my sleeves to kickstart my own innovation engine.

Thrilled to say Cased is open for business. We’ve been working hard to build a modern devops & deployments platform, and it’s now live to all. While experimenting with all sorts of AI-focused production tooling, we ended up building the kind of platform we’d always hoped for. Cased is developer-friendly devops for fast-moving teams. Branch deploys, anomaly intelligence, with AI integrated from the start—so *anyone* can use the same kind of powerful workflows we used to build and ship GitHub. Plus we want to finally put to bed the idea that devops tools can’t just look great. Sign-up, book a demo, check out docs at cased.com. Here’s a short video about it all:
