Hi Everyone,

Thanks for being a part of the SandHill.io journey thus far!

In the coming months, we’ve got a major new product launch coming up alongside several updates to the website. Ahead of the launch, I was hoping to get a few subscribers who would be open to testing out the new product which is meant to enable builders and investors to stay on top of the latest shifts across industries. If you’d be up for testing it out, just reply to this email with “I’m in!” and I’ll follow up in the next 10 days with some more details. Thanks in advance!

Now for your regularly scheduled programming.
