Exa, an AI search lab building data infrastructure for agents, raised $250 million in a Series C round at a $2.2 billion valuation led by a16z

I worked at Exa as the first employee almost 2 years ago. The team was small and we all lived and worked together in a five br victorian in Hayes. We all went to the same gym a 7 minute walk away. Jeff would brew coffee for standup every morning, and we'd rotate between costco frozen foods for lunch. Incredible memories made with this incredible family. @WilliamBryk and @jeffzwang, so proud and excited to see you guys totally crush it!!
