I talked to Beehiiv's early investor

He invested in the newsletter platform I’m sending this on.

Meet Sasha Kaletsky, Managing Partner at $20M fund Creator Ventures where he invests in creator-focused software like Beehiiv, ElevenLabs, and more.

I’ve used Beehiiv every week to send this newlsetter for 150+ weeks!! With Beehiiv hitting $1M MRR last week (😱), I wanted to ask Sasha about his thesis for investing in Beehiiv pre-launch! We talked about:

• Why he bet big on beehiiv

• Beehiiv’s fantastic creator marketing

• AI startup valuations: are we hitting crazy levels?

• AGI: real or just hype?

• How AI might make us have LESS free time

• Universal Basic Income: brilliant or busted?

• Why Americans HATE WhatsApp (and why Sasha thinks there will be unicorns built as apps on WhatsApp)

Thanks for reading, nerds.

Let’s blow up the internet together.
