Guest: Bill Magnuson, CEO and co-founder of BrazeThe deployment of smartphones around the world was more impactful than any other technology to date, says Braze CEO Bill Magnuson — and that has big implications for emerging fields like generative AI. “If we get to the point where they [LLMs] really can be useful, human-like companions ... they will be usable by everyone that has smartphone technology.” In other words, the question is not business opportunity or scale: It's capability.In this episode, Bill and Joubin discuss earnings days, Aaron Levie, MIT, customer churn, shower thoughts, technical co-founders, lacking context, AGI, “hands on keyboard,” the T-Mobile G1, app marketing, the 2008 financial crisis, Bob Iger, World War II, Peter Reinhardt, Watershed, and international offices.Chapters:(00:51) - Morning people (05:09) - What Braze does (06:59) - From CTO to CEO (08:17) - Waking up and commuting (10:49) - Leading vs. engineering (12:35) - Cognizant of believability (19:52) - LLMs and the human brain (25:46) - The AI ceiling (28:43) - The historic deployment of smartphones (37:58) - The benefits of youth (40:18) - Taking the leap (43:35) - Read more sci-fi (46:38) - Survivor bias (48:55) - Big risks at scale (52:30) - Who Braze is hiring around the world (55:32) - What “grit” means to Bill Links:Connect with BillTwitterLinkedInConnect with JoubinTwitterLinkedInEmail: grit@kleinerperkins.com Learn more about Kleiner PerkinsThis episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm

Welcome to this episode of Hardware to Save a Planet. To mark our 50th episode, we decided to bring back a few of our earliest guests to talk about all things climate tech, and what has changed since our last chat. Erika Boeing of Accelerate Wind expands on bold new developments in turbine technology; Heirloom's Noah McQueen shares the opening of Heirloom's commercial direct air capture facility, and Peter Reinhardt from Charm Industrial discusses the development of mobile pyrolysis units for carbon removal and carbon negative steel production. Join us as we explore innovative solutions in the renewable energy industry, with a focus on rooftop wind power and carbon removal, and discover why our guests are optimistic about the future. Listen in to find out how Erika, Noah, and Peter's companies are making a positive impact on climate change while prioritizing social justice and environmental initiatives.

According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, we need to return Earth's atmosphere to 280 parts per million of CO2 for the health of human existence and that of the planet. To achieve that goal, industry experts believe we'll need to be removing 10-20 billion tons of carbon per year by 2050. Removing carbon is exactly what this month's Watt It Takes guest, Peter Reinhardt, Co-Founder and CEO of Charm Industrial, is doing. The team at Charm has developed a novel process for removing carbon using biomass that is converted to bio-oil via pyrolysis, and then injected into wells deep underground, where it is permanently stored for thousands of years if not millennia. Charm is also developing a process for fossil-free ironmaking.Charm has raised $125M, has a team of 50, and is scaling their carbon removal operations. I spoke to Peter about Charm's mission to turn the tide of global climate change with carbon removal; from his childhood as a self identified “hard core math nerd” with a passion for the environment, to his early career as a ridiculously successful tech entrepreneur, to switching gears and delivering a carbon removal process to a planet that needs it now more than ever. SponsorsWatt It Takes is brought to you by Shell Ventures and SPAN.Shell Ventures specializes in unlocking deployment opportunities to help their portfolio companies scale, access customers and commercialize their solutions.

Guest: Brian Long, former CEO of Attentive and author of Problem Hunting: The Tech Startup TextbookBrian Long's most recent company, Attentive, was originally designed to help clients communicate with their distributed workforce — but about six months in, he and his co-founder realized that that business would not grow as quickly as they had hoped. So, they decided to pivot to SMS marketing, at the cost of a few dubious employees and a well-known Fortune 500 client. The successful pivot confirmed Brian's belief that it's possible to over-commit to one solution, when in fact there may be bigger and better problems to solve. “I've just seen so many entrepreneurs spend years of their life building something being stuck with it,” he says, “and then trying to figure out how to fit it into something that doesn't work.” In this episode, Brian and Joubin discuss zero to one building, the problem with how entrepreneurs solve problems, How to Win Friends and Influence People, Matt Mochary, Tom Mendoza, transactional relationships, the dangers of ego, optimists and realists, best man speeches, defining a unique culture, reverse selling, Lunar Holdings, Peter Reinhardt, marketing conservatively, and business book sales.In this episode, we cover: New York vs LA (00:54) How Brian feels, six months after stepping away from the CEO role (02:37) Product-market fit and TAM modeling (06:07)Build last (09:05) The qualities of great entrepreneurs (13:24) Tap Commerce and starting in sales (15:49) Listening and remembering names (20:40) The day after selling Tap Commerce (23:32) Starting another company, Attentive (25:07) Resilience and optimism (29:21) Fear, doubt, and the worst-case outcome (32:50) What Brian would tell his 29 year old self (37:13) Hiring and pivoting at Attentive (41:17) Text message marketing (45:49) How Brian interviews people (50:12) His new holding company, Lunar and its first startup (51:52) Don't go social (55:21) What Brian is personally excited about and what “grit” means to him (01:01:57) Links: Connect with Brian LinkedIn Buy Brian's book, Problem Hunting: The Tech Startup Textbook Connect with Joubin Twitter LinkedIn Email: grit@kleinerperkins.com  Learn more about Kleiner Perkins This episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm

The ramifications of Silicon Valley Bank's collapse two weeks ago are still rippling across the global economy. SVB was a major lender to VCs, and served silicon valley: two factors that meant its rapid demise will affect the climate tech industry.  SVB worked with 1550 climate tech companies, and gave the industry billions in loans.  Other banks may fill the void to support this lucrative sector, but many carbon removal companies are now spending time figuring out their financial stability, rather than developing their CDR products.  Peter Reinhardt, Founder and CEO of Charm Industrial, told Semafor that “…the SVB collapse will cause a one to two-quarter delay on a lot of things in climate tech. That doesn't sound like a lot, but when you look at how much needs to get deployed in the next decade, losing half a year is really not good.” The business panel also discusses some other recent CDR business news:  South Korea's announced carbon exchange a new alliance of carbon removal companies Na'im's work as the ED of the brand-new org Carbon Removal Canada On This Episode Na'im Merchant Susan Su Radhika Moolgavkar Resources NYT Article on SVB's climate lending Semafor Article w/ Reinhardt quote Jeff Snider's podcast Na'im on diverse sources of funding Dai Ellis blog post South Korea's new carbon exchange Carbon Removal Alliance Giana Amador Carbon Business Council Carbon Removal Canada Carbon Removal Canada jobs- work with Na'im!

Today's guest is Peter Reinhardt, co-founder and CEO of Charm Industrial. This conversation was recorded as a live session during Climate Career Week, a series of talks, local meetups, and office hours designed to help people make the transition into climate-oriented work. Climate Career Week was organized by Climate Draft, Terra.do, Work on Climate, and MCJ Collective. Given the nature of the audience, today's conversation focuses heavily on Peter's own journey into founding one of the most prominent companies in the climate tech space today. Peter also offers his thoughts on how certain key job functions may slightly differ in a climate tech company as opposed to a software tech company. And he would know. As Peter was working on Charm Industrial he was also the active co-founder and CEO of Segment, a software business in customer data management, which he eventually sold to Twilio in 2020 for $3.2 billion. In fact, Charm Industrial operated for multiple years while Peter was running Segment as his primary full-time role.In addition to the career path discussions, we cover what Charm Industrial is and does and why it matters. We also talk about how he imagines the business expanding in the coming years to take on adjacent problems in the emission space. And lastly, we at MCJ Collective are proud to be multiple-time investors in Charm Industrial via our venture capital funds. With that, we hope you enjoyed this conversation.In this episode, we cover: [2:12] Peter's background and path into tech[3:53] His motivations for dropping out of MIT and starting a software company [6:11] How Peter discovered the problem for Segment's software solution[7:35] Learnings from becoming a CEO  [9:55] Peter's motivations for working on the climate problem and how Charm Industrial came to be[18:01] An overview of Charm Industrial[22:01] An overview of pyrolysis and Charm's process [25:07] How Peter views the company's core innovation [28:58] Biggest risks and challenges with putting bio-oil underground [31:14] Customer side of carbon sequestration[34:24] How Peter sees Charm evolving [40:21] Key job function differences between a climate tech company vs a software tech company [45:10] Biggest lessons learned in transitioning from leading a software company to a carbon removal company [46:16] How Peter approaches permitting including exploring jurisdictions and finding consultants [47:31] Biggest choking point today and where MRV fits inGet connected: Cody Simms Twitter / LinkedInPeter Twitter / LinkedInMCJ Podcast / Collective*You can also reach us via email at info@mcjcollective.com, where we encourage you to share your feedback on episodes and suggestions for future topics or guests.Episode recorded on January 27, 2023.

The agricultural sector produces about a tenth of the world's greenhouse gas emissions, and while most of that comes from livestock (about 2/3), emissions from crop production still total about 2.2 billion metric tons of CO2-equivalent. Interestingly, we only actually use about half of what we grow: this is not because of food waste (its own issue), but because more than half of any crop is residue: the stems, shells, husks and anything else left behind at the end of a crop harvest.Charm Industrial is a new company with a plan to convert those crop residues (~ half a billion tons in the US alone) from a source of greenhouse gas emissions to a sink. Crop residues are usually left on harvested fields to decompose (or are burned), partially restoring the soils, and partially returning all the CO2 they absorbed during the growing season to the atmosphere. Charm plans to harvest those residues and convert them into bio-oil and biochar. The biochar returns to the soils for restoration; the bio-oil can be buried for CO2 sequestration or replace fossil-derived fuels. Climate Now sat down with Charm CEO and Co-founder Peter Reinhardt, to discuss how their technology works, and why interest is growing in this approach to carbon removal.Follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram.Contact us at contact@climatenow.comVisit our website for all of our content and sources for each episode.

This week we're featuring an episode of Hardware To Save The Planet, about the technological innovations that are helping in the fight against climate change, a podcast from our friends over at Synapse, a part of Capgemini Invent. A special thank you to Dylan Garrett and the team at Synapse.Dylan is joined by Peter Reinhardt, CEO and Co-Founder of Charm Industrial. Peter talks about his company, its evolution, and approaches to championing the call to save the planet by converting biomass into a liquid, which can then be pumped back underground for permanent storage. Charm Industrial calls this “putting oil back where it belongs.”Brought to you by Hardware To Save The Planet Podcast by Synapse. Synapse is part of Capgemini Invent.

When corn is harvested, the remaining corn stover either gets tilled into the soil or left on top. But what if we took a portion of that corn stover, converted it into carbon-rich bio-oil, and pumped it deep underground? Peter Reinhardt is Cofounder and CEO of Charm Industrial, a carbon removal company that is working on a fleet of mobile pyrolyzers that covert ag biomass into bio-oil and sequester it underground. On this episode of Reversing Climate Change, Peter joins Ross, Siobhan, and Asa to walk us through the process Peter's team uses to produce bio-oil and weigh in on why he refers to it as ‘BBQ sauce' in his pitch for Charm. Peter explains why Charm developed its own measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) system and explores how much bio-feedstock is available for bio-oil production in the US and around the world. Listen in to understand the big questions around IP in carbon removal and learn how Charm is turning biomass residue into bio-oil for use in carbon removal and other industrial applications like iron and steel.

Our 4th episode of The Carbon Curve is with Peter Reinhardt, CEO and co-Founder of Charm Industrial, where they're developing novel carbon removal and renewable industrial syngas technology. Prior to charm, Peter was CEO and co-founder at Segment a software as a service customer data platform, which grew to 600 people before it was acquired by Twilio in 2020 for 3.2 billion. He previously studied aerospace engineering at MITBuilding trust is absolutely critical to generating the political will and stakeholder buy-in we need to scale up carbon removal or CDR.The challenge is that there are few if any trusted third-party systems to stand behind a carbon removal project's claims about tons removed, additionality, permanence, and a number of other factors that are important in ensuring high quality carbon removal did in fact happen.Most of the certification and verification systems that exist today are built around avoidance-based carbon offsets - which have a whole host of their own problems around quality and trust.Unsatisfied with the state of current standards, and recognizing the need to move quickly to solve this problem, Charm Industrial is charting a new path - building their own monitoring, reporting, and verification protocol with input from experts across the carbon removal sector.I wanted to speak to them to learn more about whether their approach has the potential to build trust in the broader carbon removal ecosystem.In this episode, Na'im and Peter discuss:Charm's carbon removal process relative to other approachesChallenges with existing standard-setting systems in the carbon offsets worldWhy Charm took a different approach to MRV, and what that looks likeIf Charm's approach is adopted by other companies, can it “abstract up” into a generally accepted, third party approach?Show links:Charm's website and blog post on their path to MRVCharm's public registry on carbon removal deliveriesCharm's blog where more details on their protocol will be forthcomingNa'im's report with CarbonPlan on barriers to scaling carbon removal, including stakeholder perceptions on existing standard setting systemsIf you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe to this podcast on your favorite podcast app or subscribe via The Carbon Curve newsletter here.

Before Peter Reinhardt started his current company, Charm Industrial, he was the CEO and co-founder of the customer data platform Segment, which almost died in its first year. Why? He was afraid to ask customers to pay more than $10 per month for it. A savvy sales advisor pressured him to raise the price by 1000x, which worked wonders. By early 2022, Segment — now owned by Twilio — was commanding seven-figure contracts.In this episode, Peter and Joubin discuss the hierarchy of majors at MIT, building telescope arrays, the disastrous first demo of Segment, why founders sometimes forget to eat, the problem with the straight-A student mentality, playing ping-pong with the security guard, evaluating a potential acquisition partner, shedding anti-sales bias, the shortcomings of nature-based carbon offsets, and starting a “reverse oil company.”In this episode, we cover: The thing that makes Peter happiest: Solving all kinds of problems, from accounting to noise to carbon dioxide (08:50) How leading a startup has narrowed his emotional band (13:58) “Freewheeling curiosity” and the breakthrough idea that led to Charm Industrial's existence (15:47) Segment's origins as a classroom lecture tool and an analytics tool (19:18) The disagreement that almost broke up Segment's founding team, and unlocked the company's potential (26:36) “You have to raise your price by a factor of a thousand” (31:31) The packaging issue that nearly derailed Segment's growth, and Peter's initial problematic mindset (35:15) Why Peter sold Segment to Twilio: “All that matters is what the customers are telling you” (43:32) Why great sales looks like great problem solving (47:41) Being vulnerable and honest about hard things (53:19) The power of Charm Industrial's mission & finding a better carbon capture solution (57:15) The “massive profit engine” that needs to turn over to avert climate disaster (01:03:35) Links: Connect with Peter Twitter LinkedIn Connect with Joubin Twitter LinkedIn Email: grit@kleinerperkins.com  Learn more about Kleiner Perkins

Un CRM tiene muchas funciones y hay que centrar bien sus características dentro de las necesidades de un proyecto tecnológico. El CRM ha dejado de ser una herramienta solo para marketing y ventas, también es muy fuerte para gente de producto. En este episodio del show analizamos el manifiesto liderado por el CEO de Segment, Peter Reinhardt, en el que entra en consideraciones concretas a tener en cuenta para apoyar este movimiento de empresas como Amplitude, Outreach o Pendo que creen en un entorno fuera de suites de CRMs como los grandes en Cloud (Microsoft Dynamics 365 o Salesforce) y los que son servicios "in house" (Oracle PeopleSoft o SAP CRM). También hablamos de qué significa la eliminación del "data monopoly" donde la información se encuentra descentralizada con una verdadera independencia de los datos y las capacidades de integración de los CRM On Demand que los hacen muy atractivos de usar.Estos son los enlaces a los temas de los que hemos hablado:CRM is not enough: https://segment.com/blog/crm-is-not-enough/CRM On Demand y OnPremise ¿son lo mismo?: https://www.sumacrm.com/soporte/crm-on-demand¿Qué papel juegan las integraciones en un producto SaaS como Drip?

In this interview special episode recorded at Slush 2019, we’ve talked to Marta Sjogren, partner at the VC firm Northzone, and Peter Reinhardt, co-founder and CEO of a unicorn startup Segment. This episode is kindly sponsored by Google Cloud for Startups and is part of an exclusive interview series with prominent people in tech recorded live at Slush 2019.

This week Peter Reinhardt, CEO and Co-founder of Segment, is chatting to Alex Theuma on the SaaS Revolution Show, live at Slush 2019. They discuss the pivots and challenges Segment faced finding product-market fit - from Segment's origins as a classroom learning tool to where it is today. As well as focusing on Segment's journey to product-market fit, Peter and Alex also cover how Segment approached expanding into new regions.

E63: Peter Reinhardt, CEO and Co-founder of Segment. Since this interview Peter Reinhardt, CEO and Co-founder of Segment, and his team have raised another 175M USD to bring total funding to to $284 million and a valuation of over 1.5B. He validated an idea he was trying to kill by publishing a link to a sign up page on Hacker News – pretending they'd built it. The response was massive and Segment built it's 1st hugely successful product in just 5 days Peter talks about why building a business where the target customer is developers can to some degree sidestep the question of what company size range you chase after initially. He describes Segment as a customer data infrastructure company – he wants to help customers manage all of their data from different sources. He lets us know whether or not he's interested in building a marketing automation app on top of that and gives his view on the rise of 100% remote teams. This episode is about how Peter helped lay the foundation for building of a unicorn, by trying to kill the idea before it was brought into existence. If you love classic early validation stories, tune into the next instalment of 14 Minutes of SaaS. He also talks about how selling to developers can bypass the old chestnut of whether you want to go after SMBs or the Enterprise first. TRANSCRIPT Peter Reinhardt The most important thing about a business in the early stages is finding product market fit. After product market fit it becomes go-to-market and distribution, but prior to product market fit nothing else matters. And I think it really requires actually a scepticism. And I think the failure mode for most companies prior to product market fit is that they drink their own kool-ade. They have a vision for the world - of how the world should be. And they build a product to try to make the world like that. But actually the world doesn't give a shit.= Stephen Cummins Welcome to 14 minutes of SaaS, the show where you can listen to the stories and opinions of founders of the world's most remarkable SaaS ScaleUps.

The rise of SaaS has liberated the enterprise stack. Products are now brought into an organization at the atomic level and decentralized decision making has enabled modern tech companies to move incredibly quickly to solve specific problems. The challenge of this speed however is the complexity that a web of unrelated applications creates.  Glossier, a recent entrant to the unicorn club, uses 14 different analytics tools across 12 different platforms such as their website, their mobile app and their brick-and-mortar store. Each tool has its own copy of the customer data and history of privacy preferences; the complexity to uncover key insights becomes an impediment to how effectively a business can operate.  Enter Segment. The analytics tool to end all integrations. Segment has raised over $250M from leading investors including Accel, Google Ventures, Y Combinator Continuity Fund and Thrive Capital. Segment raised its Series D ($175M) last month and the venture community is excited about the company being the defacto layer of stitching together disparate customer data for organizations.  It was a pleasure to have Peter on the podcast. We talked about the early days of Segment, pivoting with only $100K left in the bank and scaling a business that has now raised over $250M. Some of my favorite moments included: (1) how Peter thinks about speed vs. process at different junctions of growth, (2) the characteristics of true product market fit, (3) how Peter has shifted his time as the company has scaled and (4) the unique value system that has been implemented at Segment.

As we conclude Season 3, it is only appropriate to do so at SaaStock. We sat down with Morten Primdahl, Co-founder of Zendesk, and Peter Reinhardt, CEO of Segment, to discuss their perspectives on what it takes to not only start a product led growth business, but grow it to massive scale.

Peter Reinhardt and Jenna discuss how Segment empowers companies to harness their data to create a ‘memory' of every customer. We walk through the team's journey to product-market fit, from deciding to drop out of MIT through the turning point when Y Combinator Founder Paul Graham asked them: 'So, you have spent $500,000 and you have nothing to show for it?' Peter then shares how increasing their customer pain meter to an 11 out of 10 helped them land on the right product. We close chatting about Peter's personal evolution as a leader and how he works with a series of coaches who can support him based on the challenges he encounters at each phase of growth.
