Toplyne raises USD $2.5 million to help freemium businesses accelerate growth

Toplyne

Toplyne, a SaaS platform that enables product-led growth companies to increase their freemium user conversion rates, today announced US$2.5 million in funding by Sequoia Capital India’s Surge, Together Fund, and angel investors from Canva, Freshworks & Zoominfo. The genesis of Toplyne happened at Sequoia India when 2 out of the 3 founding team members of former investment advisors noticed that there was a fundamental shift happening in how modern software was being bought. Software buying decisions were no longer happening in the corner offices of high-rise buildings but rather in the bustling trenches of sales, product, engineering, design, amongst others. The most exciting modern SaaS companies (Zoom, Canva, Slack) were riding this wave of bottom-up software adoption embodying a philosophy called product-led growth (PLG). Come early 2021, Toplyne’s founders noticed that eight in ten early-stage SaaS founders were building their companies for PLG. And to top it all off, June 2021 saw the world’s largest SaaS company (Salesforce) announce its plan to rebuild itself in the image of the world’s pioneering PLG company (Slack). PLG had officially arrived. “Every decade, there has been a fundamental evolution in SaaS go-to-market strategy. The 2000s were the decade of the sales-led motion. The 2010s saw the evolution of inbound marketing as the default. We’re at the cusp of the third evolution in SaaS GTM strategy, and product-led growth (PLG) is going to be the default motion of the future” said Ruchin Kulkarni, Co-founder at Toplyne. The Toplyne team spent several months speaking with hundreds of revenue leaders at PLG companies across the spectrum - starting with early-stage companies and going all the way up to public market giants. The team discovered that sales in this environment is more difficult than ever before. While PLG opened the floodgates for new user signups, finding users who were likely to become paying customers was harder than ever. To sales teams, it almost felt like finding a needle in the haystack, since most PLG companies have a 1% to 5% free to paid user conversion rate. “ After speaking with hundreds of PLG companies, we realized most companies were flying blind. Moreover, even the very best had spent several quarters (if not years) & hundreds of thousands of dollars building complex internal tools which at the end of the day didn’t get the job done“ said Rishen Kapoor, Co-founder & CEO at Toplyne It's been five months since the company was founded and the team has rolled out the closed beta version of the product to its first customers - a spectrum of early-stage SaaS companies to mature PLG companies like Canva (quote below). The product is a plug-and-play platform that enables sales teams at PLG companies to identify and focus on the users and accounts that are most likely to convert. Toplyne does so by analyzing user behaviors within a product and determining which users have shown high intent to buy. Most importantly to sales teams, Toplyne can go live within minutes, without the need for favors from their internal engineering teams! Early customers like InVideo have seen a 2x increase in sales conversion rates - case study. “Millions of people around the world use Canva to achieve their goals – from high school students to small business owners and the Fortune 500, it’s important that we’re able to identify users where our premium subscriptions are the right fit and can add value to the way they’re using our platform. We’re looking forward to using Toplyne to effectively target and scale these efforts at our speed of growth while continuing to deliver value to our community of users across the globe.” said David Burson, Head of Product, Growth & Monetization at Canva. “Our product’s first version went live on Day 30 of the company’s existence when we onboarded our first customer - InVideo. When we saw their sales conversion rate double in just a few days, we knew we were onto something.” said Rohit Khanna, Co-founder at Toplyne and former VP-Product at Clevertap. With a mission to “help product-led companies bring delight to their users” Toplyne is committed to becoming a one-stop-shop for PLG businesses to solve their unique problems. Whether it’s bubbling up the most engaged users for sales calls or building plug-and-play features to help traditional companies transition to product-led, the company’s goal is to be in service of the end-users of software. "Founders and builders of product-led growth companies face the challenge of sales prioritization every day! Zeroing in on users who are most likely to pay is key to future-proofing your success. The Toplyne team’s experience in this sector, both as investors and entrepreneurs, convinced us that they’re the right team to solve this problem, and we're thrilled that Together Fund can help them scale." said Girish Mathrubootham, CEO & Founder, Freshworks (NASDAQ: FRSH) Toplyne is also backed by several prominent angel investors including Arjun Pillai (SVP, Strategic Growth, ZoomInfo), Sahil Lavingia (Gumroad), Shashank Kumar & Harshil Mathur (Razorpay), Kunal Shah (CRED), and Gaurav Munjal (Unacademy). About Toplyne Toplyne is a technology startup that lets sales teams at product-led SaaS companies increase conversions within their freemium user base. The company was founded in June 2021 by Rishen Kapoor and Ruchin Kulkarni who were earlier with Sequoia India and the former VP of Products at Clevertap, Rohit Khanna.

Neighborhood Sun and Ameresco Partner to Bring Nation’s Largest Community Solar Project 100 Percent Dedicated to Low- and Moderate-Income (LMI) Residents to Montgomery County, Maryland

Neighborhood Sun

The nation’s largest community solar farm to be 100 percent dedicated to low and moderate-income (LMI) residents is coming to Montgomery County. Ameresco, Inc., (NYSE: AMRC), a leading cleantech integrator specializing in energy efficiency and renewable energy, and Neighborhood Sun, a community solar company making solar accessible to everyone through its advanced community solar software platform, Sun Engine (™), in partnership with Montgomery County, today announced the first-of-its-kind solar farm bringing clean energy to thousands of low- and moderate-income Montgomery County residents. The project’s partners, along with Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich and other County representatives, launched the project’s subscription campaign today at an event at the County Executive Office Building in Rockville. Community solar farms enable access to affordable, clean energy for residents who are unable to build their own solar systems. Anyone who receives an electric bill can benefit including renters, residents in multi-unit buildings, municipalities, non-profits and businesses that don’t own their roofs. Through the subscription program for this new project, Montgomery County residents who are on the utility Pepco and who qualify as LMI are eligible to receive 25 percent savings on their electricity costs every month. Subscriptions are now available here. The array is sited on the capped Oaks Landfill in Gaithersburg, transforming underutilized land into an environmental asset that brings local jobs and clean, renewable energy to the community. The project, a total of 6 MW, is divided into three 2 MW arrays, and will generate approximately 11.7 million kilowatt hours annually. Array 1 is for use by the County and under a power purchase agreement, providing the County government clean, renewable energy at no upfront cost. Arrays 2 and 3, each with 2 MW, will be the community solar project with 100% of the generated electricity provided to low-to-moderate income residents. “It should not be a surprise to anyone that Montgomery County is creating the nation’s largest community solar farm that will create energy directed to low- and moderate-income residents,” said County Executive Marc Elrich. “Our Climate Action Plan calls for us to eliminate 100 percent of carbon emission by 2035 and it is projects like solar farms that will help us obtain this goal. I am very thankful to Neighborhood Sun and Ameresco, Inc for helping us create this community solar farm. And I am proud of the work of the Department of General Services for delivering another solar project in Montgomery County with 18 completed and four under construction. This project is not only what is good for the environment, but it also serves Montgomery County families who need help with their energy costs as well.” “The equitable and just deployment of renewable energy in the U.S. is critical to expanding our clean energy economy and addressing environmental injustice,” said Gary Skulnik, CEO, Neighborhood Sun. “As a Montgomery County business, we are especially pleased with the county’s support for expanding energy access into underserved communities.” This project is expected to help the County reach its goal of eliminating greenhouse emissions by 2035 and the state of Maryland’s goal to generate 50 percent of its electricity from renewables by 2030. The energy produced annually by the arrays dedicated to community solar is expected to be approximately 7.9 million kilowatt-hours. That is equal to preventing 5,599 metric tons of CO 2 from being released each year, which is equivalent to taking 1,218 cars off the road for one year and preventing 6,188,031 pounds of coal burned. “This project blows away by an order of magnitude any other 100% LMI project in the state of Maryland, and is a testament to Neighborhood Sun’s leading role in bringing energy justice to the state,” Skulnik added. Project construction is expected to begin in early 2022. “This project provides not only energy cost savings to the County and its participating low-to-moderate-income residents, but also leverages the use of an under-utilized land asset that will produce revenue for the County, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to its carbon neutrality goal,” said Ameresco Senior Vice President Jon Mancini. “Through this initiative, the County will demonstrate continued commitment to sustainability that will deliver economic and environmental benefits to the Montgomery County Community for many years to come.” The project received a grant from the Maryland Energy Administration. “The Maryland Energy Administration (MEA) was pleased to provide for this project over $950,000 in grant funding through MEA's Low-to-Moderate Income Community Solar Program, which provides incentives to reduce the cost of electricity generated from clean energy to Marylander's, with income limitations that result in energy costs being a disproportionate portion of their household expenses,” said Mary Beth Tung, Director, MEA. Regulators in Maryland recently voted to expand the capacity of the state’s community solar program as well as improve access for LMI customer participation in the state’s Community Solar Pilot Program. According to Wood Mackenzie, community solar is expected to exceed 900 MW of annual capacity in 2021. Maryland ranks in the Top 10 states in community solar according to Q2 2021 installations. Maryland-based Neighborhood Sun currently manages nearly 80 megawatts of community solar projects, enough solar to power more than 10,000 homes. About Neighborhood Sun Neighborhood Sun is committed to bringing the promise of solar to everyone, not just the select few. The company is a national leader in expanding solar access to underserved communities to address energy equity. Through its SunEngine™ advanced software platform, it offers a flexible, secure and fully transparent platform for solar developers or asset owners, plus a simplified enrollment experience for customers.

Replicated Named a ‘Cool Vendor’ by Gartner®

Replicated, Inc.

Replicated, a leading provider of multi-prem software delivery and management, today announced it has been included in the 2021 list of Cool Vendors in Cloud Computing by Gartner. “We are thrilled to be named a Gartner Cool Vendor in Cloud Computing,” said Grant Miller, co-founder and CEO of Replicated. “We started this company nearly seven years ago with the ambition to make folks rethink what on-prem software distribution and management could look like. Hopefully, with this designation, we’re a step closer to erasing the connotations of server racks, binaries, and bespoke operations and replacing them with ubiquitous Kubernetes-based, automated operations. In a word, maybe our efforts to modernize this distribution model have made on-prem software cool again.” Key findings in the report include: “Seventy-six percent of respondents to Gartner’s 2020 Cloud End-User Buying Behavior Survey that have adopted cloud infrastructure intend to operate in a multi-cloud environment. The primary reasons are to increase service availability, to leverage best-of-breed services across providers and to comply with compliance requirements across the globe. Real-world multi-cloud implementations are mired with architectural complexity, unclear total cost of ownership (TCO) and uneven governance due to inadequate planning and lack of a deliberate strategy.

COMCAST DONATES $60,000 AND 150 LAPTOPS TO WASHINGTON STATE MILITARY COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS DURING NATIONAL VETERANS AND MILITARY FAMILIES MONTH

Comcast Washington

Comcast announced partnerships with three military community organizations in Washington state. In honor of National Veterans and Military Families Month, the company donated $60,000 and 150 laptops to Operation Military Family, Paralyzed Veterans of America, and the Washington State Department of Veterans Affairs. The donations are part of Project UP, Comcast’s $1 billion commitment to reach 50 million people over the next 10 years with the tools, resources, and skills needed to succeed in a digital world. According to research by the Army University Press, many American military Veterans face challenges with digital equity, especially since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Comcast’s donations will help Veterans access technology integral for career advancement and social connection. These donations are part of Comcast's continued dedication to supporting Veterans and their families nationwide, in several ways. Since 2011, Comcast has donated more than $191 million in cash and in-kind contributions to military community organizations. “Our partnership with Comcast goes beyond just a monetary donation. Comcast is committed to helping Veterans access the technology they need for career and social success in the modern digital landscape,” said Mike Schindler, CEO of Operation Military Family. “These donations will allow our Veterans with mobility, adaptive, or accessible concerns obtain equipment and resources for those that have a Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) or diseases such as MS or ALS, their families, who we serve, advance in training, their careers, and personal lives. Technology and the ability to use it to its fullest potential is imperative for Veterans with a SCI or disease, and we appreciate Comcast’s dedication to technology support,” said Matthew Mickunas, President, Northwest Paralyzed Veterans of America, Washington State. “Our long-term partnership with Comcast is one of our strongest corporate partnerships in Washington. Their support has and will continue to be a powerful asset to Veterans across the state,” said Lourdes E. “Alfie” Alvarado-Ramos, director Washington State Department of Veterans Affairs. “We’re honored to partner with military community organizations that make powerful impacts with Veterans across the state of Washington. These organizations help them build digital equity at a time when it has never been more important,” said Carla Carrell, External Affairs Director for Comcast in Washington. Comcast employs more than 17,000 Veterans, National Guard and reserve service members, and military spouses. In 2020, the company was ranked number one on Military Times’ “Best for Vets: Employers list.” Comcast’s tradition of hiring and supporting the military community started with Ralph Roberts, the company founder and World War II U.S. Navy Veteran. Comcast puts significant effort into supporting military Veterans and their families at all stages of their careers, which led to Comcast being named a Gold-level Military Friendly® Employer and a Military Friendly® Spouse Employer by Victory Media.
