Pydantic wants to cash its open-source credibility – but not in the usual way
- scrollaway 2y agoSeems a bit clickbaity. So Samuel is using his name and credibility to launch a startup that has nothing to do with Pydantic. I mean good for him, but I don’t see how this is unusual? Did I miss something?

So rather than trying to transform Pydantic itself into a commercially viable product, it’s leaning on the project’s gravitas to sell other, not-directly-related products instead — such as Logfire.
