Startup+ is a must-subscribe for any founder. Sharp insights, real networking, and a community that actually moves the needle. Great for staying plugged into the startup world.
Yoann covers the money and the go-to-market behind climate tech, not the headlines. If you're building or funding in the space, this is the operator's view of what closes.
Hands-on AI builds you can ship. Their walk-through on giving AI agents persistent memory is the kind of practical engineering my readers put to work the same week.
Daily, field-tested AI prompt workflows for people running a business, not a lab. Churn flagging from email sentiment, offer teardowns, auto-responders that do not read like robots. The closest thing to a repeatable ops layer for operators who want AI doing real work.
Frameworks, tooling and AI workflows for GTM operations, written by people building GTM systems inside real revenue teams. The weekly Pulse alone is worth the subscribe.
Subscribe to The Workaround for proven GTM frameworks, real-world revenue templates, and sharp insights from a seasoned operator who's scaled teams at Google, AWS, and high-growth startups.
David builds the models most revenue teams talk about and never open. Churn scoring, expected LTV, causal inference, agent evals, worked end to end with the code. If you want the mechanics under your retention and acquisition numbers, they live here.
The Strategy Stack is corporate strategy written by someone who actually understands the AI stack underneath it. Alex Pawlowski turns trends into decisions an executive team can act on.
Most AI coverage tells you what's possible. Maria writes about what's actually happening -- pragmatic, well-sourced takes on AI that skip the hype and get to the operational reality. If you're building with AI and want analysis that holds up when you test it against the real world, AI Realist belongs in your stack.
Ken Huang writes practical work on agentic AI security, grounded in the OWASP projects he co-authors. Worth reading if agents are entering your stack.
Cornellius writes for the manager choosing an operating model, not just the analyst running the queries. Clear thinking on data teams, AI tooling, and what is worth keeping in house.
Chris reads a store floor the way a good operator reads a funnel. Space planning, assortment, and merchandising called from inside the aisle rather than off the press release. The clearest view of physical retail execution I have found on Substack.
Practical, battle-tested insights from a founder-turned-funder who's helped build, back, and grow startups from zero.
Most AI-and-sales content is written for the rep. Amarpreet writes for the person who decides how the whole motion is structured. If you are a founder or sales leader working through what AI actually changes at the strategic layer, Sold With AI is the supplement that covers that side of the conversation.
Chris Stone writes the operational side of podcasting: episode structure, production quality, and discovery you can measure. If you run a show as a distribution channel and not a hobby, this is the maintenance manual.
