It highlights Clay (a Boldstart portfolio company) scaling from $1M to $100M ARR in two years after a long discovery period and lists six contrarian GTM moves that enabled viral agency-led growth. By contrast Glean reached $200M ARR via a pure enterprise sales motion with no PLG. The note cites explosive ARR spikes (ElevenLabs adding $14M ARR in one day) and market data (Menlo Ventures reporting 50+ AI products each surpassing $100M ARR). The author also reports OpenAI leadership stating enterprise customers are a major priority and mentions recent large private financings and valuations in developer/agent platforms (Harness, port.io). The piece frames the current AI opportunity as historic while warning of churn and long discovery cycles for product-market fit.
