Today, we’re launching Ramp Sheets, the AI spreadsheet editor built to 10x finance teams, operators, and founders. Ramp Sheets plans, executes, and formats automatically. It’s already being used to model budgets, forecast revenue, and reconcile financial statements.

Here are the top sales capacity planning screw ups I have seen šŸ‘‡ 1. Not factoring in sales rep attrition 2. ā€œSmallā€ assumption improvements that materially increase capacity 3. Starting with quota instead of productivity 4. Not hiring for the following year’s sales targets

In the age of AI, why make a Sales Wiki? Because even the smartest models are only as good as the data — and the definitions — behind them. Across conversations with RevOps, Finance, Sales, and HR leaders, one pattern keeps surfacing: there’s still no shared view of what ā€œgoodā€

Turn design into code with Claude Code + @figma. Through MCP, Claude sees your mockup at the data level—component hierarchies, design tokens, auto-layout rules—and translates it into production-ready code.

ChatGPT may be the first AI that most of the 8 billion people on our planet use. Some people don't understand why OpenAI took the risk of deprecating all previous models in favor of GPT-5. It’s a full-throttle, no-looking-back blitzscale bet. And here’s why it may win:
