  Airtable sold for a tenth of its peak. The founders kept the AI business. Bending Spoons announced today it's buying Airtable, all cash. The headline number hides three better stories. The deal: - Enterprise value: $1.285 billion - Equity value: ~$2.25 billion, but only because Airtable is sitting on ~$965M of net cash - Read that again: nearly half the purchase price is Airtable's own unspent money being handed back to shareholders - Peak valuation: $11.7B, December 2021 Series F. The business just cleared at roughly 89% below that - ARR: ~$480M, growing 20%. That's ~2.7x revenue. SpaceX paid 15x for Cursor six weeks ago The waterfall, per a widely shared model built on public terms (directional, assumes vanilla 1x prefs): - Everyone from Series C onward took par. Coatue, Thrive, Greenoaks, XN wrote checks at $1.1B, $2.6B, $5.8B, and $11.7B posts and got 1.0x of money back - CRV: ~21x on the 2015 Series A, ~6x on the B - Caffeinated Capital: ~37x on the A1 - Freestyle and Felix Shpilman at the 2013 seed: ~55x - ~$960M left for converting holders. The three founders, assuming ~15% held, split about $144M. Call it $50M each after 13 years - Same lesson as always: the last four rounds funded the exit for the first three Now the buried lede, from the SEC filing: - Before signing, Airtable ran a reorganization that transferred the entire "Hyperagent" business line out of the company into a separate entity, Hyperagent Inc - Hyperagent is the AI agent orchestration platform Airtable unveiled in early 2026, spin up teams of autonomous agents across your business tools - Bending Spoons is buying the database, the workflows, the 500K orgs, the 80% of the Fortune 100, and the $480M of recurring revenue - The seller is keeping the agents On Hyperagent's performance: there are no disclosed numbers. It launched roughly six months ago. No ARR, no customer counts, nothing public. What we know is that it was worth carving out of a billion-dollar deal, which is its own kind of disclosure. On whether the founders stay: nobody has said explicitly. Howie Liu's statement talks about "building the AI-native platform of the future," which reads either way on purpose. But follow the structure, not the quotes. The founders' holding company now owns Hyperagent outright, free of the legacy business. One newsletter's blunt read: Liu keeps the AI project without having to be the one who does the layoffs. The Italians do that part. And they will. Bending Spoons' playbook is public record: buy at a discount, cut deep, raise prices on customers too embedded to leave, run it for cash. Evernote, WeTransfer, Vimeo, AOL in January, Eventbrite in March. Airtable is the first deal since its July Nasdaq listing at $18.4B, and the first paid for with public-market currency. The frame: a decacorn built over 13 years just sold its core for less than the cash on its own balance sheet plus a modest premium, while the founders walked out the back door with the AI upside in a clean-room entity. The 2021 vintage investors got their money back and nothing else. The seed got 55x. And the most honest sentence in the whole transaction is a highlighted paragraph in a 6-K that nobody reads. Every exit this cycle tells you where the value is. This one says: the workflows are worth 2.7x revenue. The agents are worth keeping.

  @spencerpratt you don't know **** about business, Hollywood, or history. you're comparing apples and oranges. ALL the guilds oppose the merger. WHY IS THAT? mergers mean less projects, less competition, lower wages (and you somehow missed AOL acquiring Time Warner (and WB) in 2000

  Bending Spoons is an Italian company that just bought Airtable for $1.2B 3 weeks after going public on Nasdaq. They already own AOL, Vimeo, Evernote, WeTransfer, Eventbrite, Brightcove, and about 50 other products. Revenue $1.3B in 2025, over $600M in Q1 2026 alone. Market cap briefly hit $25B. Their playbook: buy American tech icons at a fraction of their peak valuations, cut 75-85 percent of staff, raise prices, optimize margins. Evernote was bought for $200M after being valued at $1B. Eventbrite for $500M after IPOing at $1.76B. Vimeo for $1.38B. Now Airtable for $1.285B after being valued at $11.7B. The shopping list writes itself. Public SaaS is trading at 3-5x revenue, down from 18x in 2021. AI fear has crushed valuations across the board without distinguishing between companies that are actually threatened and those with deep workflow lock-in. Some categories that are mispriced right now: project management tools like Asana and Monday are trading at fractions of their peaks while still growing and serving enterprise customers. Collaboration and communication tools that have real user bases but stalled growth. Vertical SaaS companies where the software is deeply embedded in industry workflows that AI cannot easily replace. Developer tools with loyal communities but no path to the multiples their investors need. More European companies should be doing this. The 2021 vintage of overvalued American SaaS is a generational buying opportunity. These are real products with real revenue and real customers, just priced wrong because someone raised too much money at too high a valuation. The preference stack crushed the common holders and now the assets are available at good prices. Also, European companies have structural advantages here. Lower cost bases to operate these products and no pressure to hit Silicon Valley return multiples and operational discipline built from never having had the luxury of burning cash.

  spent the morning mapping the 90s internet buildout against the ai era, layer by layer. the rhyme is almost suspicious. 1. the protocol layer. tcp/ip and http were deliberately dumb, open, and free. they beat richer closed rivals (aol, gopher) on adoption, not capability. gopher died from a licensing announcement, not even enforcement. mcp is running the same play: simple, open since late 2024, adopted by every rival lab within months. the lesson transfers: protocols stay dominant only while they stay credibly free. 2. picks and shovels. cisco sold the routers of the boom and became the most valuable company on earth in march 2000. then the buildout paused and the stock took 25 years to reclaim its peak. shovel revenue is a derivative of capex sentiment, not end-user value. nvidia is playing the same role beat for beat, including the most-valuable-company milestone. 3. the capability curve. every app category had a modem speed where it became viable. text at 2400 baud, images at 14.4k, e-commerce at 28.8, napster at 56k. context windows, tool-use reliability, and cost per token are the new baud rates. the question that printed money in 1994 still works: what just became viable this year that wasn't last year? 4. the trust layer. this is the interesting one. in 1994 the web was read-only and nobody would type a credit card into it. then four boring primitives shipped almost at once: cookies (1994, state), ssl + verisign (1995, identity), online payments (netmarket 1994, paypal 1998), and reputation scores (ebay 1995). a controlled experiment later showed ebay's feedback scores earned sellers 8.1% higher willingness to pay. trust primitives, not storefronts, were the moats. agents in 2026: no portable memory, identity duct-taped with api keys, no native machine payments, and tool trust decided by github stars and vibes. we are standing in 1994 of this layer. all four are unclaimed. 5. discovery. yahoo hand-curated a directory. it broke at scale. altavista indexed what pages said about themselves. it got spammed. google won by mining a signal the web deposited as a side effect: links as votes. mcp registries today are the yahoo phase. the pagerank of agents, invocations as votes, does not exist yet. the internet's biggest fortunes came from the boring layer, built in the four years after the protocol went open. mcp went open 20 months ago. the clock is running.

  Sometimes I think of the days of aol instant messenger, and how the tech would be to put up an away message and say something like “god my parents will never get me don’t text me. Don’t messsge me” Then proceed to sit there wondering why no one has texted me. Simple times

  Lisa sent me the AOL email less than a month before she suddenly freaked out on me because I asked for divorce. And she's now lied to the judge AND police trying to get me in serious trouble and caused me an almost insurmountable amount of stress. I JUST wanted some SPACE.
