    The Token-Maxxing Bill That Shocks Every CFO — & the Fix

    Merge co-founders Shensi Ding (CEO) and Gil Feig (CTO) join Sourcery for a wide-ranging conversation on building AI infrastructure that quietly powers some of the biggest companies in tech — including OpenAI, Perplexity, Netflix, Uber, Mistral, and Dropbox. They break down Merge's three-product suite (Unified, Agent Handler, and Gateway), the make-or-break month that pushed them to rebuild around AI, and why they now believe "English is your programming language." Gil gets candid on the state of AI security — supply chain attacks, agentic code flooding GitHub, and why the scariest threat is always internal. Shensi shares hard-won hiring philosophy (missionaries vs. mercenaries), her admiration for Benioff and the "beginner's mind," and a hot take on companies over-engineering their own models. Plus: the SaaSpocalypse, the brutal reality of token-maxxing bills, governing employee AI access, headless Salesforce, and whether today's AI valuations make any sense at all.

    Inside the Alibaba Boardroom: Jack Ma, Masa Son, Joe Tsai & Jackie Reses

    Jackie Reses has quietly done what almost no one in finance has pulled off — she's been a Goldman Sachs banker, a private equity partner at Apax, Yahoo's Chief Development Officer, Executive Chairman of Square Financial Services, a board member at Alibaba, Affirm, and Nubank, and now the founder and CEO of Lead Bank, the $1.5B fintech infrastructure company quietly powering Stripe, Ramp, Walmart, Affirm, Revolut, and over 100 crypto companies. In this episode, Jackie sits down with Molly to share the untold stories behind her improbable career — from sitting in Alibaba board meetings with Jack Ma, Joe Tsai, and Masa Son, to brokering one of the largest value-recovery deals in corporate history for Yahoo, to running Square Capital after a 72-hour hackweek project. She also gets candid about the hype around "de-banking," what it's really like inside the White House (her brother is VP JD Vance's Chief of Staff), how she built Lead Bank to $280M in revenue with zero sales team, and why the future of financial infrastructure is programmable, on-chain, and AI-native. Whether you're a founder, operator, investor, or just curious about how the most powerful in American fintech actually work behind the scenes — this conversation is a masterclass.

    Inside Marc Andreessen & Ben Horowitz's Multi-Family Office (Part II)

    Michel Del Buono, Chief Investment Officer of a16z Perennial (Andreessen Horowitz's multi-family office), returns to Sourcery for a deep dive into pre-liquidity event planning.  Yes. You can earn a billion dollars. With the SpaceX IPO on the horizon and massive secondary activity around Anthropic, OpenAI, Stripe, and Anduril, Michel breaks down the three pillars of wealth optimization: trust & estate structuring, tax-advantaged investment strategies, and philanthropy. In this conversation, Michel and Molly cover QSBS stacking, the difference between L1, L2, and L3 SPV structures, the hidden risks in today's secondary market, the BDC liquidity gate situation, tax loss harvesting vs. trust strategies, real assets and depreciation, AI's impact on private equity, and why most founders show up to their liquidity event unprepared. Whether you're a founder approaching IPO, an early employee considering a tender, or just want to understand how the ultra-wealthy actually structure their balance sheets — this episode is essential listening.

    19 May

    Commure Hits $7B Backed by GC, Sequoia, Morgan Stanley

    Tanay Tandon, Co-Founder and CEO of Commure, joins Sourcery to break down the company's new $70M round at a $7B post-money valuation, led by General Catalyst with participation from Sequoia Capital, Morgan Stanley, and Kirkland & Ellis. With $750M raised to date, Commure now runs inside 500+ healthcare organizations, 3,000+ sites of care, and processes tens of billions of dollars in annual claims — with 85%+ of revenue cycle work completed without a human in the loop. Tanay started the company at 18 out of his Stanford dorm room. Today, Commure has 1,200 employees across seven offices, supports 200M+ patient encounters a year, and has doubled ARR three years in a row. We get into the round, the use of General Catalyst's Customer Value Fund (CVF) for non-dilutive growth capital, why he believes point solutions will be wiped out, the Augmedix acquisition, the Summa Health partnership in Akron, the JPM flip-flops story, and his IPO plans. Topics covered: • The $70M / $7B round and why he didn't need the capital • CVF and non-dilutive financing for go-to-market • Building an AI-native OS for healthcare • HCA, Tenet, Epic, and Meditech partnerships • Why platforms beat point solutions • Lessons from acquiring Augmedix • What Alfred Lin, Hemant Taneja, and Teresa Carlson taught him • The path to IPO Tanay Tandon: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tanaytandon  Molly O’Shea: https://x.com/MollySOShea  Sourcery: ⁠https://x.com/sourceryy  𝐄𝐏𝐈𝐒𝐎𝐃𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊 YouTube: https://youtu.be/Vd4HHQ1l9mM 𝐒𝐏𝐎𝐍𝐒𝐎𝐑𝐒 • Brex—The modern finance platform, combining the world’s smartest corporate card with integrated expense management, banking, bill pay, & travel. https://brex.com/sourcery  • Turing—Turing delivers top-tier talent, data, and tools to help AI labs improve model performance—and enables enterprises to turn those models into powerful, production-ready systems. https://turing.com/sourcery  • VCX—VCX is the public ticker for private tech, allowing investors of all sizes to invest in venture capital.

    Exclusive Interview: Coatue CIO on AI's Biggest Winners

    Coatue's Chief Investment Officer of Public Investments, Jaimin Rangwalla, joins Molly O’Shea of Sourcery to unpack the most extraordinary technology cycle of his 20-year career. Jaimin walks through Coatue's spring investor update — why OpenAI, Anthropic, and SpaceX are breaking into the world's top 25 companies before going public, how Anthropic was adding $2.5 billion in ARR every single week, and how the rise of agents launching agents is creating what he calls a "digital population explosion" that will multiply every person's semiconductor and power footprint by 1,000x. Jaimin also breaks down Coatue's "follow the gigawatts" framework, the shift from 1 CPU : 8 GPUs to 1 GPU : 4 CPUs, why semiconductors went from career-long shorts to the most profitable sector in the market, and the "sellers of shortage vs. buyers of shortage" dynamic driving today's biggest winners. Plus: the bottlenecks no one is solving, the trillion-dollar IPOs coming, and what keeps him up at night. Chapters below.

    How AWS Sold Cloud to the CIA – Teresa Carlson GCI

    Teresa Carlson, Founding CEO of the General Catalyst Institute, joins Molly on Sourcery to share the inside story of how she built AWS's public sector business from zero revenue and two people into a $10B global powerhouse — including the legendary CIA contract that legitimized cloud computing for the entire world. In this conversation, Teresa pulls back the curtain on what it was really like working alongside Jeff Bezos and Andy Jassy at Amazon, the brutal "no PowerPoint" writing culture, and the one-way vs. two-way door framework that shaped how she made decisions. She also draws sharp parallels between the early cloud era and today's AI explosion — explaining why she thinks AI adoption is moving faster than any technology she's ever seen, why the U.S. urgently needs an AI framework, and what startups must do to win in Washington DC. We also get into the General Catalyst Institute's mission to give 1,000+ portfolio companies an "unfair advantage" with policymakers, the rise of commercially-oriented government under the current administration, and why founders need to ditch the flip-flops if they want to be taken seriously on Capitol Hill. A must-watch for founders, operators, investors, and anyone interested in the intersection of AI, policy, and the future of American competitiveness.

    Figure’s Humanoid Factory Tour – CEO Brett Adcock

    For the first time ever, Figure is opening every door. Sourcery gets the first full tour of Figure's robotics campus with Founder & CEO Brett Adcock — and we see everything. Figure is the first-of-its-kind AI robotics company bringing a general purpose humanoid to life, designing, building, and testing every robot in-house. In this exclusive walkthrough, Brett takes us through all the departments on their San Jose campus:  System integration lab where robots are stress-tested with software faults and physical pushes Helix AI team floor where the controls and neural network engineers train the vision-language-action model that runs onboard every Figure robot Reinforcement learning & stability testing area where Figure demos the Vulcan project — surviving a lost knee mid-task — and lets Molly push the robot to test its RL-trained balance Home environment where Figure 03 autonomously tidies a living room using their Helix neural network (no teleoperation) BotQ manufacturing facility where heads, batteries, and limbs come together on the assembly line, including the custom-built battery line and end-of-line burn-in bays Industrial design studio — opened publicly for the first time — housing every generation of Figure robot ever built, including Figure 01 with its Frankenstein forearms, Figure 02, and the sleek Figure 03 that recently appeared at the White House, plus the evolution of Figure's hands and feet Brett shares why he believes humanoid robots may achieve AGI before any other form factor, why Figure pivoted entirely from hand-coded controls to neural networks, and teases that Figure 04 will be their "iPhone 1 moment." This is the most complete look inside Figure that has ever been filmed.
