This is (at least) the 3rd Velocity startup; BufferBox (S12) recently exited to Google (not a talent acquisition from reliable sources) and Pebble (W11) just announced general production yesterday. Congrats to Thalmic, you're in good company!

It's actually quite a bit more than that. Streak, PagerDuty, and some others.

Velocity -> YC seems to be a great pipeline!

I didn't know you were behind Streak! Very cool. I know PagerDuty are UW alum but were they involved with Velocity as well?

Does kytephone have a UW connection? (I keep a list[1] so I'll add them if they are)

Martin from Kytephone here. We're not from UW, although I did spend a bunch of time in Waterloo.
