Daniel Sokolovsky and the trouble with the last mile
Daniel Sokolovsky built AxleHire, now Jitsu, to get packages to the doorstep. At Warp, he is working backward through the journey - to the trucks, terminals, and awkwardly sized shipments that decide whether a delivery promise can be kept.
Ayush Sharma
Ayush Sharma is the founder and CEO of Warp, an AI-native employee management, payroll, and compliance platform built for high-growth startups. An MIT computer science and physics graduate and former Yelp ML engineer, he started Warp out of Y Combinator's Winter 2023 batch to fix the government red tape he hated as a distributed-team founder. Warp now runs payroll across all 50 US states and 150+ countries for hundreds of startups, and in June 2025 raised an $18M Series A led by Sound Ventures.
Zach Lloyd
Zach Lloyd is the founder and CEO of Warp, the Rust-based terminal that grew up into an agentic development environment. A former Google principal engineer who led the Docs and Sheets teams, he looked at the one tool every programmer touches and noticed it had barely changed in 40 years. Warp's answer: a command line that reads natural language, runs AI agents, and as of 2025 codes by prompt. The company has raised roughly $73-75M from Sequoia, GV, Dylan Field and Elad Gil, and went from its first $1M of ARR in 300-plus days to adding $1M every few days.
