Stripe cofounder here. I just wanted to tip our hats to the folks at Balanced. Stripe and Balanced have certainly competed against each other in the marketplace space for a few years, but we have a lot of respect for how Matin and his team

As far as I know, PayPal never had the part of this that I'm most excited about -- straightforward UI and APIs for training the models over time. (Both so that they can be globally better and also better-adapted to each specific busine

We still haven't built most of the stuff we want to build. We're not available in most countries; there are countless payment instruments we don't support; there's a lot of functionality we'd like to add. We want to

I work at Stripe. Some details in the article aren't very accurate. But, more broadly, we actually work hard to push against the rules in many cases. (Cindy Gallop, mentioned earlier in the thread, can attest to this -- we spent ages t
