Nas Daily and the 1,000-Day Bet on a Minute
Nuseir Yassin left a coding job for a rule he could explain in one breath: make one minute of video every day for 1,000 days. The bet carried him through 64 countries and, eventually, into a business built around other people’s stories.
Nas Company
Nas Company is the parent of the Nas Daily media brand and the creator-economy platforms Nas Academy and Nas.io, founded by viral one-minute video maker Nuseir Yassin. Its mission is to 'Bring People Together' by giving creators and community leaders the tools to teach, build memberships, sell digital products, and own their audience instead of renting it from social platforms. The ecosystem reaches hundreds of millions of people monthly and has raised more than $23M to date, beginning with an $11M Series A in 2021.
Nuseir Yassin
Nuseir Yassin, better known as Nas Daily, turned a self-imposed dare - a one-minute video every day for 1,000 days - into a media company that now reaches hundreds of millions of people each month. The Harvard economics graduate and former Venmo developer left a comfortable salary to chase a simpler question: how do you make a stranger care about a place, a person, or an idea in sixty seconds? The answer became Nas Company, an ecosystem spanning Nas Daily, Nas Academy, Nas Studios, the creator platform Nas.io, and the AI-driven agency 1000 Media.
