THE ODDS OF MAKING IT

Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

Reaching $25 million ARR within 10 years is harder than getting into Harvard. Only 1 in 50 startups achieves this milestone. Almost half of software startups make it to $1 million ARR, though it usually takes 2-5 years. AI-native startups are 3X more likely to hit $1 million ARR in six months compared to others. While living in the Bay Area helps, it's not essential for success.
