The "NEW YOUTUBE SOURCE" contains excerpts from a Sequoia Capital video featuring Jon Noronha, founder of Gamma, a company reinventing presentations. Noronha discusses Gamma's journey, from its 2020 inception to becoming a successful AI application layer company with over $50 million in annual recurring revenue. He highlights how generative AI, particularly image and text models, saved Gamma by solving the "blank page problem" for users, transforming content creation from starting from scratch to editing a rough draft. The discussion also covers Gamma's unique, writing-based format (a hybrid of Notion and Canva), its data-driven approach with extensive A/B testing, and its strategic use of various foundation models, favoring Claude and Gemini for their creative output and cost-efficiency. Noronha also touches on future plans, including expanding beyond presentations to documents and websites, and developing more agentic editing experiences and an API for automated visual content generation.
