Today’s show:

*Eric Glyman of Ramp joins us to share the fintech unicorn’s growth secrets AND their Lab full of research data.

On TWiST, Jason and Alex chat with Eric about Ramp’s counter-intuitive mission — helping startups spend LESS money — PLUS they take a deep dive into the company’s treasure trove of startup trend data. Why is there a huge spike in unemployed recent college trends? Is “static team size” as a big a story as Jason and Alex think? What does it actually take to get companies to adopt AI Agents? The answers all might be in these Ramp numbers.

PLUS Eric joins us for some hot Founder Q’s, and what’s going on with all this Y Combinator drama? We’re sifting through the angriest tweets for the inside scoop.

FINALLY, Jason recommends some of his favorite startup accelerators of the moment (aside from his own) including…
