What you likely need
Matin is a highly credible founder who built and exited Heap (acquired by Contentsquare in 2023) after raising over $218M and going through Y Combinator. With the acquisition complete and his role now as Chairman, he is likely evaluating his next venture or transitioning into investing. His strong technical background, YC network, and successful exit position him exceptionally well for whatever comes next.
