Big investors are buying this āunlistedā stock
When the founder who sold his last company to Zillow for $120M starts a new venture, people notice. Thatās why the same VCs who backed Uber, Venmo, and eBay also invested in Pacaso.
Disrupting the real estate industry once again, Pacasoās streamlined platform offers co-ownership of premier properties, revamping the $1.3T vacation home market.
And it works. By handing keys to 2,000+ happy homeowners, Pacaso has already made $110M+ in gross profits in their operating history.
Now, after 41% YoY gross profit growth last year alone, they recently reserved the Nasdaq ticker PCSO.
Paid advertisement for Pacasoās Regulation A offering. Read the offering circular at invest.pacaso.com. Reserving a ticker symbol is not a guarantee that the company will go public. Listing on the NASDAQ is subject to approvals.
WHATāS HAPPENING TODAY
OpenAI
(source: CNBC)
š„ The Digest: Sam Altman just grabbed the hype balloon at the AI party and whispered, āCareful, this might pop.ā The OpenAI boss says investors are acting like itās the dot-com bubble all over againāthrowing billions at anything with the letters āAIā slapped on it. The twist? He still insists AI is worth trillions. So heās basically telling everyone: āYes, itās a bubble. No, Iām not getting off the ride.ā
Key Details:
š āBubble? Totally.ā ā Altman admitted the AI frenzy is inflated, comparing it to the 90s dot-com craze. But unlike Pets.com, ChatGPT can actually write your breakup text. ([The Verge, NY Post, TOI])
š„ āSomeoneās Gonna Get Burnedā ā His words, not mine. Translation: most AI startups will be tomorrowās tech graveyard. Think less āunicornā and more ādonkey with a pitch deck.ā
šø Wall Streetās Foam Party ā AI stocks are sky-high, with investors treating Nvidia like a lottery ticket. Fundamentals? Eh. Who cares when the line goes up.
šļø Trillions on Trillions ā Even if the bubble bursts, OpenAI is gearing up to pour trillions into new data centers. Imagine Jeff Bezos building warehouses, but for GPUs and with even less oxygen.
Why It Matters (and Why Itās Funny): Altman just did the financial equivalent of saying: āThe ship might sink, but donāt worryāI brought extra champagne.ā Heās hedging harder than a Wall Street intern on Red Bull: warning investors not to overhype AI while also planning to spend enough on servers to power a second moon landing. So yeah, if AI is a bubble, Altmanās already selling helium tanks. šš§ šø
Paradigm
(source: TechCrunch)
š The Digest: Paradigm didnāt just build a spreadsheetāthey built a haunted spreadsheet. Each cell now has its own AI agent, which means your formulas arenāt just breaking anymore, theyāre arguing back. Forget Excel macrosāthis is like giving every box on your sheet its own intern, complete with caffeine addiction and a superiority complex.
Key Details:
š¤ 5,000 Interns in a Box ā Every cell can host its own AI agent. Need live stock prices? Done. Need a sales email drafted? Also done. Need your exās new address? ā¦probably also done, but letās not test HR.
š Choose Your Fighter ā Paradigm lets you pick your favorite AI engineāAnthropic, OpenAI, Geminiālike a Smash Bros character select screen. Except instead of fighting, theyāre bickering over your pivot table.
šø Seed Money & Spreadsheet Drama ā Backed with $7M in funding, Paradigm charges $20/month. Which is fine, because if youāre still doing manual VLOOKUPs, your time is worth less than that anyway.
š¢ Big Names Already Testing ā EY, Cognition, and Etched are early adopters. Translation: your next ācollaborative spreadsheetā might actually be a group chat where you and 4,999 AIs argue about font size.
Why It Matters (and Why Itās Funny): This is Excel after a five-hour energy binge. Instead of breaking formulas, your spreadsheet now explains why it broke and suggests a 12-step improvement plan. Paradigm basically turned the worldās most boring office tool into a Tamagotchi swarm with LinkedIn Premium. So yeahāyour next quarterly report might come pre-written by an AI army. Just donāt be surprised if your āQ4 Revenueā cell starts sending you motivational quotes at 3AM. šš¤š„ue⦠or I will remind you again,ā just know: it might not be a joke anymore.š¦šš¤
Grammarly
(source: TheVerge)
āļø The Digest: Grammarlyās new AI isnāt just fixing commasāitās trying to moonlight as your professor. The company rolled out an AI Grader that claims it can predict your grade before you even hit āsubmit.ā Translation: itās like having a crystal ball for GPA anxiety, except the crystal ball also nags you about run-on sentences.
Key Details:
š Your Paper, Now With Spoilers ā Feed it your assignment details and rubric, and Grammarly will estimate your grade. Itās basically Rotten Tomatoes for homework, except your mom still wonāt be impressed with a 72%.
š¤ Squad of Mini Professors ā The Grader comes bundled with other botsāplagiarism checker, citation formatter, and even a āreader reaction predictor.ā Because nothing says āauthentic writingā like guessing if your professor will sigh or slow-clap.
š Free-ish ā Students get most tools for free, though the plagiarism checker hides behind a paywall. Which means broke undergrads might just learn the ancient art of paraphrasing āvery creatively.ā
š« Confidence or Existential Crisis? ā Grammarly says it helps calm nerves, but imagine an AI telling you: āThis essay is giving C-minus energy.ā Therapy bills sold separately.
Why It Matters (and Why Itās Funny): Grammarly basically gave us a stress test disguised as a study buddy. Itās the digital version of that one friend who proofreads your essay, nods, and then casually says: āYeah, youāll probably pass⦠maybe.ā So before you hand in your assignment, you can now get roasted by a grammar bot. Because nothing boosts motivation like an algorithm telling you your $120k English degree is writing at a middle-school level. āļøšš¤
