How I grew to $3M ARR in 6 months—& to a $1B valuation in 2 years. | Jay, Founder of Eve Legal

Jay was running a respectable AI startup with $3M ARR. But he knew it wasn't a venture-scale rocket ship. So, he decided to fire all his customers, pivot the entire company, and bet everything on a new vertical: legal AI for plaintiff attorneys. Eve went from zero to unicorn status in under two years, raising $100M at a $1B valuation.  In this episode, Jay breaks down the brutal reality of pivoting a revenue-generating company, how to achieve "demo shock" in an antiquated industry, and why 4-hour user sessions were the first sign that he had struck gold. Why You Should Listen • How threatening to shut down your product can reveal PMF. • Why firing all your existing customers might be the only way to scale. • How to achieve a 40% conversion rate from cold outreach to demo. • Why you should target mid market instead of enterprise if you want to deploy AI fast.
