Big update from Lex! (the AI-powered writing tool)

Hey! (You're getting this email because you signed up for Lex, the AI-powered writing tool that helps unlock your best writing.)

I have a few updates for you that I'm super excited to share:

1. We raised a $2.75M seed round, led by True Ventures!

You can read more about it in the Techcrunch story that went live today. What this means for you: Lex is going to be around for a long time, we're hiring, and very soon we'll start shipping improvements even faster! Our mission is to be the overall best tool for writers—which means not just building useful AI editorial assistance, but also making "table stakes" features like track changes better than you've ever seen it before. We are just getting started!

2. We've shipped some big new features over the past few months!

My favorite is that you can now highlight any part of your document, and leave a comment @mentioning Lex, and ask any question you want. Perfect for brainstorming, re-writing, and really anything—the flexibility is the beauty of it.

Here's a video showing how it works, but really the best way to experience it is to try it at https://lex.page

3. The waitlist is gone!

Anyone can sign up for and use Lex immediately, no waiting required :)

4. We have a new logo and homepage!

I'm really proud of how this came out:

​

That's it for today! Thanks so much for writing with Lex, and please keep all the amazing feedback coming.

With that in mind, one question for you: What should we build next?

PS—If you want to read more about the origin story of Lex, I wrote a short post about it here.
