From ex-Tesla engineers, an AI supply chain platform powers DoorDash and HelloFresh

We've long argued that spreadsheets shouldn't be static, and Ema is proving the shift is happening now.

A new valuation for Miro signals a market reset for collaboration tools
Bending Spoons is acquiring Miro for $1.36 billion, a striking step down from the $17.5 billion valuation that defined the collaboration startup in late 2021. That is a 90% drop, and it reframes what investors now think this category is worth. It is a sobering reset, but not a defeat. Miro still has a product people use. The deal signals a more pragmatic era for workplace tools, where growth matters less than sustainable value.
Adobe expands its data intelligence reach with second Indian acquisition

For teams wrestling with static spreadsheets, this feels like a quiet nod toward tools that think ahead. We're watching closely, and we'll keep exploring how such shifts reshape everyday workflows.
Your CRM now lives inside Claude, transforming how you manage relationships.
Salesforce just told the world its own screens are optional. The company spent 27 years perfecting the CRM interface, then spent Tuesday arguing sellers should live inside Claude instead. That takes nerve, and it's also the smartest thing they've done in years. The value was never the buttons; it's the data and workflow logic buried underneath. By handing that to Anthropic's model, they're betting on usage over seats. For anyone tired of clicking through a deal pipeline, that's not a threat. It's relief.
