We raised a $35M Series A led by @oakhcft . That brings our total capital raised to $43M. We spent the last decade watching money get stuck at borders across roles at Uber, Coinbase, Stripe, and Zero Hash. Latitude (@rtp) is what we built with those lessons.

It starts “We raised a $35M Series A led by @oakhcft”. It carries a 50-second video against a directory median of 65 seconds.
Videos between 30 and 90 seconds have a median of 603K views in the directory. The copy runs 48 words, about the usual length for a launch post here, where the median is 41.
The body carries a link, so the post had somewhere to send the reader and paid a little reach for it. It went out on a Wednesday. Launches posted on a Wednesday have a median of 721K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 880K.
How to announce a funding round covers this: the round is the news and the post has to turn it into customers and hires. For the next one, read launching a product on X from a small account: an account with 3K followers has to earn every view from outside its own following.
Giving people something to reply to is the guide for it: the conversation is what carried this one. Every launch we track in Fintech is on that vertical's directory page.
