"I'm diving into the Windsurf cap table to try to parse how much there was to go around and where it went. Please DM me to share (I wouldn't identified / named) if you have any info on what portion of the $2.4B purchase price went to: - dividends on vested common stock (including the founders) vs. - retention / new stock issued to people who went to Google vs. - preferred stockholders in Windsurf (AFAICT $X went to the remaining employees who were left behind and hadn't hit their cliff yet.)"

"This feels like Grammarly is becoming a holdco / following the Salesforce playbook. Find companies with - solid but not breakout growth (and probably slowing) - a loyal cult following - raised at a high valuation in the peak era - talented respected teams - still founder led by strong product thinkers Salesforce did this with Quip Slack etc"

"Debrief / wrapup on Windsurf-Cognition: Deal terms & dynamics - Amazing that the team is getting taken care of (at least acceleration / participation in the deal terms) incredible job by @jeffwsurf and fellow execs - Guessing Founders Fund played a notable role here. They are investors in both Windsurf and Cognition. - I'd guess acquisition price was in the range of $200-400M. Typically a business in the AI application layer with $80M+ in ARR 2xing year on year with 20-30% gross margin (I'm guessing) would be worth $250-500M. But the dynamics here would haircut that by 50%+ = $100-200M. Add"
