You raised billions and made a billion in revenue look inevitable, yet you still retweet career-poster memes like a benevolent finance uncle handing out LinkedIn resumes at brunch. Big brains, bigger balance sheets, slightly smaller bedside manners.

Scaling Ramp to over $1B in revenue and closing a $300M raise at a $32B valuation, on top of an earlier exit from Paribus.

To build scalable financial infrastructure that lets companies operate smarter and faster, proving that you can grow huge without getting slow, and that practical products can change how businesses think about money.

Believes in youthful curiosity and operational discipline as engines of progress; prioritizes measurable impact, transparency, and efficiency over bureaucratic tradition. He trusts data, speed, and pragmatic capitalism guided by competent stewardship.

Relentless focus on growth and metrics, credibility from a successful exit and massive fundraising, and the ability to turn operational details into widely shareable narratives that attract founders, investors, and customers.

Tends toward blunt, metrics-first takes that can alienate nuance-seekers; risks polarizing debates with provocative hot takes; may under-serve the softer, human storytelling that deepens long-term community bonds.

Double down on repeatable, high-value content: post concise threads that break down Ramp’s playbooks (growth, ops, fundraising), share one-slide charts with clear takeaways, and sprinkle short behind-the-scenes clips. Host X Spaces or AMAs with founders/customers, pin a flagship thread (e.g., 'How we doubled to $1B'), engage top commenters, and use data visualizations and customer stories to turn credibility into consistent follower growth and shareability.

Surprise– the world’s most innovative companies are investing more on Twitter than ever! @tryramp customers–which includes a cross-section of the US’s fastest growing startups–increased spend at @twitter by 18% in the 7 days post-acquisition (10/27)! Google grew 3.4%, FB fell 8%

Today, @tryramp reached a new valuation: $13 billion. We’re not Steve Jobs or Wilbur Wright. We won’t invent the next iPhone or flying machine. Our job is more modest: save you time and money, so perhaps you can. (1/6)

Today, @tryramp raised $500M at a $22.5B valuation. Finance is at an inflection point. How does an industry change? Gradually, then suddenly. Decades where nothing happens; months where decades happen. Now, we’re teaching software to think like people. Exciting times ahead.

People often ask how we balance speed and quality at @tryramp. We don’t. Because speed is how you get to quality. Even the best hitters in baseball miss 70% of the time. A .300 batting average means the world’s best still fail twice as often as they succeed. Building products is no different. Even if you deeply understand your customer, you’ll still be wrong most of the time — it just takes iteration to discover what actually works. Take two teams: Team A ships every 2 weeks. Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8 — all wrong. Week 10 — nailed it. Team B waits for “perfect.” Week 8 — wrong. Week 16 — wrong. Week 24 — finally right. Team A made more mistakes, but found truth faster. Team B “protected” quality and ended up slower, later, and with less conviction. In the real world, there’s no limit to your at-bats per inning. You can swing 100 times if you design your org and culture for it. Speed isn’t a trade-off with quality. Speed is the way to get to quality.

On the time YC cofounder @jesslivingston tore me a new one and changed the future org structure of Ramp: At YC, we attended weekly office hours where every startup shared 1/ their weekly growth %, 2/ their biggest problem, and 3/ what they were doing to solve it. That week in summer 2015 our startup Paribus had grown 20% w/w, our biggest problem was that we were getting too many customer support tickets, and our proposed solution was to hire a customer support person (as the third hire at a then two-person startup). Jessica pointed out that if our solution was to hire someone to deal with customer issues, then next week when we grew more we’d have to hire another person, then another, and so on. Her point was that the real solution isn’t solving tickets, it’s listening to customers and building a better product so customers never need to write in the first place. She told us how @bchesky of Airbnb, an icon even then, would still walk around wearing a Jawbone earpiece so he could personally take support calls, hear customer feedback and deal with problems immediately. She (kindly and graciously) schooled us in front of the group, and it was one of the best learning moments I’ve had as a founder. In a sense, every customer support ticket is a privilege – someone took the time out of their day to write about how to improve your product. But it’s also a failure – you could’ve saved them that time by making the product better and more intuitive in the first place. You can’t out-hire a bad product, or compensate for poor taste with a big support team. Support is not a cost to minimize, it’s a key function every company should take seriously. When you listen to customers and make your product intuitive, you get output graphs like the below – where the rate of active user growth far exceeds the rate of support tickets. To this day, almost a decade later, support reports into product at @tryramp

Today @karimatiyeh and I are both taking new titles as Co-CEOs of @tryramp. If you know us, this won't feel like a change. From when we first started building together twelve years ago, our partnership has run on a couple of motivating principles. On decision-making, we trust each other completely to make critical calls for the company across every function. And on organization design, technology is not a distinct part of the company - it is the entirety of it. That is why Karim has for years directly managed risk, operations, and marketing. Most importantly, at Ramp there is no line between the people who build and the people who do everything else. Everyone is a builder. For the last 2,656 days, we have run the company this way. This only makes it formal. We thought it was important to do it now because of how we see the AI exponential reshaping what Ramp can be. Decisions of company strategy are increasingly decisions of technology and systems design. We have always believed every function should be approached as a systems-engineering problem (even when the system was primarily human) but the rise of machine intelligence makes this existential. Every part of the company must be positioned to leverage the continued explosion in model intelligence and capabilities. If we do this well, each step-change in what models can do compounds automatically into better products and faster execution without anyone having to rebuild the company to capture it. If we fail to operate this way we will ultimately be outcompeted by a new company that does. We are also making Rahul Sengottuvelu our CTO. @rahulgs has led Applied AI at Ramp since joining us three years ago through the acquisition of his prior company, Cohere. Before that, his first company was building customer-service agents on GPT-3 at a time when almost no one knew what a large language model was, and he has spent every year since pushing the frontier of what existing models can do. He has also been right on nearly every major technical direction in AI well before it was obvious. Building Ramp now means applying AI to every part of it, and Rahul is the person stepping up to lead that work. We are still very early in the history of Ramp. Our current chapter is perhaps the most dynamic, but we have never been more optimistic on where it is going and the mission has never been more important. The businesses that trust us are navigating the same shift we are, and we intend to be there for all of it: managing their token spend, supercharging their finance teams, and helping them get more out of every dollar and hour. - Eric & Karim

Today, @tryramp reached a new valuation: $16 billion Let the robots chase your receipts and close your books, so you can use your brain and build things. That's the way AI was meant to be.
