(Our gong has been put to great use! https://www.linkedin.com/posts/michlimlim_help-me-settle-a-debate-with-laura-lee-activity-7399163641784332288-O9Yl?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAB-lEvQBDMC4WORPKPe-emksA3DMuDZNghg) ABOUT FLINT Flint is the agentic platform that ships pages from your brand and ad campaigns. AI doesn't replace marketers. It removes the work that should never have been theirs: building a one-off landing page for every keyword, every campaign change, every A/B test, then waiting on design and engineering to do it. Today we deliver on-brand pages on your own domain in minutes, with no rebuilds and no engineers. We're backed by Accel, Sheryl Sandberg (former Meta COO)'s venture fund SBVP, and Neo. THE VISION Sandberg instantly understood Flint's vision. "I was sharing how it took (me) five teams three months to build one A/B test just to increase conversion by 10% on our Google ad," Lim said. "And then she stopped me, [and] said, 'Michelle, it was 140 people at Meta who had to do this'." — TechCrunch Imagine a website that builds new pages, tests creative, and optimizes performance in response to real-world signals: competitive shifts, user behavior, trending search queries, the way an autonomous vehicle responds to road conditions and traffic. The marketer still owns the work that compounds and the work that requires taste: strategy, audience, creative direction, brand judgment. Flint takes the manual production off their plate so they get those hours back. THE TEAM "One of the most talent-dense AI startups... each member of the early Flint team has a track record, and as a team, they perform like athletes.
