LLMs lie. We build models that tell the truth. Today, we're excited to announce our $100M Series A led by @vkhosla and @KhoslaVentures. @profdanklein and I founded @ScaledCognition to solve the key challenge in AI, reliability.
How it compares
A launch means nothing against no one. These are the launches it is actually comparable to, and where this one sits among them.
| Compared with | Launches | Median views | This one | Rank |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Funding announcement the same kind of announcement | 247 | 419K | 1.0x | 123 |
| under 5K followers accounts of a similar size | 627 | 227K | 1.9x | 240 |

What this launch shows
From an account with 319 followers, this reached 1320.3 times the account's own following. Accounts in the same band, under 5K followers, reach a median of 161.4 times their following, so this travelled about 8.2 times further than usual for its size.
It ranks 240 of 627 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it is below the median of 688K views, at rank 1214 of 1981.
Every response ran below the directory's usual rate: 45 bookmarks, 14 replies, 11 quotes and 10 reposts against 81 likes. The post was seen more than it was acted on, which is common for a launch that reaches past the people who care about the category.
The first line is “LLMs lie”. It carries a 1:34 video against a directory median of 65 seconds.
Videos over 90 seconds have a median of 651K views in the directory. The copy runs 37 words, about the usual length for a launch post here, where the median is 41.
There is a link in the body, which costs a post some reach and buys it a place to send people. It went out on a Thursday. Launches posted on a Thursday have a median of 724K 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 319 followers has to earn every view from outside its own following. X analytics explained is the guide for it: what each of these numbers means, with benchmarks by account size.
