Ravi Adusumilli shared thisWelcome team ClerkyRavi Adusumilli shared thisWe're happy to announce that Clerky has agreed to join Stripe! We started Clerky more than a decade ago because we believed startups and their attorneys should be able to get routine startup paperwork done quickly, easily, and without causing problems for legal due diligence. As startup attorneys in Silicon Valley, we saw how our clients would try to get paperwork done faster and cheaper, but ended up paying us more in the end to fix everything. We started Clerky to provide the experience our clients were looking for, but with our legal expertise built into the products. Today, Clerky is the most popular online legal service for top startups and their attorneys. Clerky startups account for 23% of all Silicon Valley seed / pre-seed financings and have raised over $140 billion in aggregate venture capital. Hundreds of attorneys and paralegals are working with their clients on Clerky. Startup formation on Clerky grew 6.5x faster in the past year than our historical average. Along the way, we've gotten to know many platforms in the startup ecosystem, including Stripe. The more we got to know the team at Stripe, the more we found similarities, not only between our culture and beliefs, but also in our shared mission to help the startup ecosystem. As a part of Stripe, Clerky will continue to build on this momentum with the same team and the same focus we've always had: helping high-growth startups and their attorneys get routine legal paperwork done safely. And we'll continue providing the same high level of service to startups and attorneys that we do today. We know that startups trust us with their most important legal paperwork and rely on us in their most important moments. Stripe has spent over 15 years building infrastructure that startups depend on and is one of the most startup-aligned companies in the world. With this strong fit, we're very excited for Stripe to be our long-term home. Thank you to all the startup founders and attorneys that have been a part of our journey to date. We all want life to be easier for startups, and your support has always been critical in enabling our work toward that. We'll now have more resources to leverage in building new products and features for you, and we can't wait.

Ravi Adusumilli shared thisGreat to see Stripe and OpenRouter coming together. AI is rapidly reshaping how businesses are built and scaled, and we have a unique opportunity to help build the economic infrastructure behind it. Excited to welcome the OpenRouter team and for what we can build together to power the next generation of AI companies.Ravi Adusumilli shared thisOpenRouter is joining Stripe. We started OpenRouter with a simple mission: intelligence should be multi-model. Today, we are the largest AI marketplace & gateway, processing 10T+ tokens daily on 400+ models. Joining Stripe gives us the opportunity to accelerate that mission. OpenRouter will continue as OpenRouter: same name, same product, same roadmap, and the same commitment to helping you find and use the best model for every task. To our customers, partners, providers, team, and the entire OpenRouter community: thank you for building with and believing in us. We’re just getting started. More on why we made this decision and what it means for our 10M+ developers in the comments.

Ravi Adusumilli shared thisLive from Stripe Tour Sydney 🇦🇺! It’s been wonderful spending time with customers here and hearing more about what they’re building. I especially enjoyed my conversation with Dane Thomas, cofounder of Ignition. Dane and Ignition have been building on Stripe since 2015. 🙏 Ignition started in 2013 serving accounting firms in Australia, and quickly expanded to help more service businesses simplify and scale their operations. Today, they support more than 6,000 customers worldwide across industries like marketing, IT, and financial services, and have processed over AUD 3.6 billion in client payments since 2015. 🚀 Ignition went global much earlier in their journey than most businesses typically do. Stripe is focused on helping businesses like Ignition operate more efficiently and grow internationally. That's why we’re excited to launch Stripe Treasury in Australia today. Treasury brings payments and global money management into one platform: businesses can accept payments, hold and convert funds in multiple currencies, and pay suppliers, contractors, and third parties in nearly 100 countries directly from the Stripe Dashboard. Get instant access funds, hold balances in AUD, USD, GBP, and EUR—and convert across 10 supported currencies. Everything we announced in Sydney today: https://lnkd.in/gQR9sHDf.

Ravi Adusumilli shared thisI'm excited to share that I’ll be speaking at Stripe Tour Sydney next week! 🇦🇺🚀 Stripe Tour brings together over 2000 founders, business leaders, developers, and innovators from across Australia, New Zealand, and APAC to explore what's next in the internet economy. This year's agenda covers AI in payments, agentic commerce, emerging revenue models, and stablecoin-enabled financial infrastructure. I'll be taking the mainstage at 2:30 PM for my session, "Operating a global business”, where I'll be diving into practical strategies for navigating cross-border scaling, global expansion, and modern commerce infrastructure. Whether you are building new products, expanding into new markets, or rethinking your payments strategy, it’s a great opportunity to gain actionable insights and connect with peers tackling similar challenges. Join us for a complimentary day of conversations, insights, and connections—I look forward to seeing you there! 👉 Register and check out the full agenda: https://lnkd.in/gFMxQu4m

Ravi Adusumilli shared thisExciting day. Stripe + The Ryder Cup partnership 🥰Ravi Adusumilli shared thisTo start this post, I have to admit that while I love to play golf, I am an "aspirational" golfer. Meaning, I aspire to someday be able to play a "better than mediocre" game. And to beat my 18-year-old son at golf again... someday! (Although seems unlikely; he's only getting better and I'm... on the back nine, as they say.) Now on to some exciting news: Stripe is partnering with the The Ryder Cup for the upcoming matches at Adare Manor, Limerick in 2027 and Hazeltine, Minnesota in 2029. With our dual headquarters in Dublin and San Francisco, this partnership hits close to home for our teams in Ireland and the US. Stripe will power the entire payment journey for fans, from ticket purchases online to point-of-sale spending on the course. By creating a faster, seamless way to pay, this partnership will elevate the experience for the 200,000+ fans expected on the course, giving them more time to do what they came for... watch great golf. ⛳️ See you at the Ryder Cup!

Ravi Adusumilli shared thisThe biggest technology shifts don’t happen because of a single company. They happen when an ecosystem comes together around a shared standard. Today, more than 100 partners launched Open Standard with a common goal: accelerating the adoption of stablecoins as foundational infrastructure for the global economy. The opportunity isn’t just to improve payments. It’s to build the financial infrastructure for a future that’s already arriving—where AI agents, software, and businesses transact globally, instantly, and at internet scale. We’re only beginning to imagine what’s possible. Open ecosystems have always unlocked the next wave of innovation, and I believe stablecoins are at that inflection point. Excited to see what this community builds together. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gufbCSiw #Stablecoins #Fintech #Payments #AI #OpenStandards #Innovation #OUSD #OpenUSD

Ravi Adusumilli shared thisReally enjoyed my conversation today with Anthony Soohoo, CEO of MoneyGram, at Stripe Tour London. We covered a lot — stablecoins, MoneyGram’s refounding journey after 86 years in business, and the future of moving money globally. But what stayed with me most was Anthony’s passion for helping people move money across borders, especially in parts of the world where financial infrastructure is still developing. It was a powerful reminder that the cost, speed, and reliability of moving money matter in ways that are easy to underestimate, if you’ve only experienced mature banking systems. In many markets, remittance rails are not just financial services but they are essential infrastructure for families and small businesses. A good reminder of what we’re all building toward, and proud of the partnership between Stripe, Bridge, and MoneyGram to help make money movement more accessible globally.

Ravi Adusumilli shared thisI keep hearing some version of the same thing from founders all over the world: cross-border payments used to be a real pain, and it’s a huge unlock if and when they are able to stop thinking about it. That’s changing. The savvy founders I'm talking to aren't waiting days for wires to clear anymore. Wilson described paying contractors as "not even something I think about. It just works" That’s real progress, for something that used to be a multi-day headache. That's the shift I keep seeing. Founders like Wilson, Pamela and Niccolas who figure out how to use stablecoins through something like @Stripe Treasury aren't just saving time and money. They're operating like companies ten times their size. For more, check out: https://lnkd.in/gSX2FDSB

Ravi Adusumilli shared thisSquarespace is a great example of what happens when a platform goes all-in on Embedded Finance. They started with payments. Now their merchants can manage every dollar their business makes without ever leaving the Squarespace dashboard. A few things that stand out: - Squarespace Payments' significant growth since launching in 2023 signifies that the product is genuinely solving a problem for merchants. - Instant Payouts gets funds to merchants in minutes instead of days. Cash flow is everything for small businesses. - Squarespace Capital launched in the US in early 2025 and is already live in the UK. One-time fee, no compounding interest. We're seeing lending become the #2 expansion path for vertical SaaS (right behind payments), and Squarespace is a good case study in why. - Squarespace Balance is built on Stripe Treasury and Stripe Issuing. Same-day payouts, cash rewards on savings, and a business Visa card, all in one place. The pattern here is worth paying attention to: the best platforms are removing friction so their users can focus on running their business. That's what drives stickiness.

Ravi Adusumilli liked thisRavi Adusumilli liked thisBret Taylor and I are excited to announce that Julia Brau Donnelly will be joining Sierra as our Chief Financial Officer. Julia has seen companies from almost every side: as an investment banker, a private-equity investor, an operator at Wayfair, and as CFO of Pinterest. That range of experience and adaptability is so valuable in an industry that is changing at a pace none of us have seen before. Most of all, Julia embodies our culture: low ego, high agency, and excited to roll up her sleeves to get the work done. And there’s a lot of building to do. Just two and a half years since launch, Sierra has become the leading customer-facing conversational AI platform. The business is growing much faster than even our most optimistic predictions, hitting $100M in ARR in just seven quarters and $200M in nine quarters. We now work with over 40% of the Fortune 50, one in three of the leading banks, five out of 10 of the largest healthcare companies in the world, and 25% of the IBEX 35. With the shift from one-and-done service agents to revenue-aligned long-horizon agents, the opportunity for Sierra just got much, much bigger. Julia — welcome to Sierra! We’re all so excited to have you on the team.

Ravi Adusumilli liked thisRavi Adusumilli liked thisExtra is App of the Day on the App Store today. This is a nice moment for our small team. Life admin is relentless. A trip to manage. A package to track. A bill to pay. A deadline you can’t miss. None of it is especially hard, but together it takes up a surprising amount of mental space. That’s the problem I want Extra to solve. We’re starting by helping you see what needs your attention. But the ambition is much bigger: a proactive assistant that helps you manage the day-to-day of your life. I’m incredibly proud of the BuildForever team for getting us here. And to our early users: thank you for taking a chance on us, sharing honest feedback, and helping shape Extra from the beginning. There’s a lot more coming soon, but today we’re taking a moment to celebrate!

Ravi Adusumilli liked thisRavi Adusumilli liked thisMeet Jasmine Singh, General Counsel here at Ironclad, and the person making sure the legal foundation of an AI company is as strong as its product. The day starts with the commute—a rare stretch of quiet before the pace picks up. When she makes it to the office, it’s time for a quick cup of tea (caffeine-free of course) before some heads-down work. Most of the morning belongs to her desk: reviewing agreements, thinking through legal strategy, and staying close to the questions a fast-moving AI company inevitably surfaces. The work is never just legal, it's always also product, risk, and business. Midday brings a cross-functional sync with Ambika Aggarwal, VP of Product Marketing, to get her thoughts on a few decisions as we prep for our next launch. Then it's back to the desk for the afternoon stretch, diving into the focused, rigorous work. From that first tea to the last agreement reviewed, every part of Jasmine's day reflects what great in-house legal looks like: grounded, strategic, and always a step ahead. We're hiring!

Ravi Adusumilli liked thisRavi Adusumilli liked thisIn 2025, Stripe processed $1.9 trillion in global payment volume - within Money Management, we are obsessed about where it all goes, and can we help manage it more efficiently along the way? One in three new businesses on Stripe processed an international transaction as their very first sale in 2025. The ones managing that money well—holding currencies strategically, accessing funds faster, cutting unnecessary FX costs—are pulling ahead. This is what we are building at Stripe - Legacy financial systems weren’t built for multi-currency, cross-border, hyper-scaling SaaS Platforms and AI businesses. Moving money through a traditional three party stack, composed of a payments processor, a Bank and a payments provider - does not scale. This is what Stripe Payments, Treasury and Global Payouts is built to solve. Our new report shows three ways businesses are changing their approach globally, and how Stripe can enable platforms to deliver these efficiencies to their sub-merchants: https://lnkd.in/eZTkFjAi

I recently sat down with Meghana Dhar to talk about our launch of Asana AI Teammates. My view: the real AI opportunity at work is not just helping one person move faster. It’s helping teams coordinate better, operate with more context, and execute with more trust. Also: no, you can’t “vibe code” Asana 🙂 That’s what we’re focused on with AI Teammates — collaborative agents that work across teams, learn from how your team operates, and get better over time through shared memory. We also get into: - Why context is the missing layer in enterprise AI - Why coordination becomes the bottleneck as more AI gets introduced - How governance and control need to be built in from the start Thanks again, Meghana.

Art and technology often run like parallel train tracks that never seem to intersect. But that changes today, as skitre.ai and Gullakaari join hands for a unique and meaningful collaboration. Sushmita Kaneri’s Gullakaari is dedicated to reviving traditional Indian crafts and uplifting artisan communities. skitre.ai, founded by Sharad Patel is a human-centered, AI-powered learning and development platform focused on essential skills for the modern world. This partnership brings together two powerful worlds: • Cutting-edge AI × Timeless Indian art • Modern skilling × Cultural preservation • Digital empowerment × Grassroots creativity Together, we aim to: • Bring India’s artforms to new digital audiences • Breathe in life into dying art forms by democratising them with technology • Demonstrate how technology can amplify tradition - not replace it #SkitreAI #Gullakari #WomenEntrepreneurs #SocialImpact #ArtisansOfBharat #Bharat
