Congratulations on the launch! FYI there is a pretty well-known YC startup named Vanta that helps companies manage various security compliance certifications.

Obviously, there are often different services that share the same name, but given that Vanta isn't an actual word in the English language, I would think this might be confusing for people.

As a data point of one, I just assumed Vanta (the company) was doing a Show HN today and was confused at first glance.

For context, Coda's last valuation was $1.4B in July 2021 and Grammarly's was $13B in November 2021. Grammarly's revenue is likely taking a hit with the rise of LLMs and they were always at risk of being a feature by not owning the document editor itself. An all-in-one approach to compete with Notion (and Google Docs, Confluence, Sharepoint, etc) makes sense, but time will tell if this merger works.

I started a side project with my older brother called NanaGram.co that makes it easy to text message photos to a unique phone number, then once a month they get printed and shipped to your loved ones.

If you have kids, it makes a good holiday gift for the grandparents if you're stumped on what to get them.

I've since moved on from it, but my brother makes enough to work on NanaGram full-time now. It's also just been really cool to see the project grow over the years and bring happiness to thousands of grandparents all over the world.
