@theventure: This 22-year-old turned down Google to build a coding app that just sold for $60 billion 💻💰 Aman Sanger has been writing code since he was 14. He goes to MIT, interns at Google, and could walk into any job in tech. Instead, in 2022, he starts his own company. His bet is simple: building software is hard because you have to write the code, so what if you didn't? He and his friends build Cursor, where you tell it what you want in plain English and it writes the code for you, across your entire project. ✓ Lets developers finish in a day what used to take a whole team a week ✓ Opens the door for people who never learned to code to build real apps of their own ✓ Becomes the fastest software company in history to hit $100 million in sales, then $1 billion, then $2 billion ✓ Gets bought by SpaceX for $60 billion in June 2026 Turns down Google → bets you shouldn't have to write code → builds Cursor → fastest company ever to $1B → $60B SpaceX deal → four twenty-somethings become billionaires. Sometimes the biggest opportunity is questioning the one thing everyone assumes is required. What would you make effortless if you removed the hardest part entirely? 🤔 #Business #Cursor #AI #Success #Entrepreneur

Now We Build :
Turning down Google to bet on a completely different idea of how software gets built, that's the kind of conviction that actually pays off.

Three years from launch to two billion in revenue is really impressive. Nothing in software has scaled like that.
