We have a SaaS platform (Pydantic Logfire - General and AI observability), and we raised our Series A from Sequoia.

For good or bad, I think we're pretty "SaaS/vc/etc." already.

Yeah it seems a bit forced though. Like why go from an open source utility library for typing to take VC money and try to shoe-horn in an observability platform that no one was asking for?

My prediction, not going to be a good investment.

  • ROFL.

    I clearly didn't build pydantic "to take VC money" - I maintained Pydantic for 5 years before deciding to take VC money.

    I wanted to build logfire and I didn't want to compete with or restrict our open source, we so built logfire.

    Let's see on the investment; seems to be going pretty well so far.
