TensorStax — TensorStax is an AI-powered platform which helps data teams build, optimize, and maintain ETL & ELT pipelines with tools like dbt, Airflow, and Spark. Automate your data workflows and fix issues before they hit production.
Octave — GTM is changing at a relentless and possibly unprecedented pace. The end of zirp and rise of AI have combined to end the predictable revenue era. Most of the 'modern' systems, practices, and processes that companies rely on today were born and cultivated in this era. But interestingly, many believe the tools developed in this era are alsopre-ordained to win the next one. We couldn't disagree more.GTM is moving from the era of automation, to the era of generation. From a world of complex, admin-centric tools, based on static data and rigid rules, to a dynamic world where end users are directly empowered with real-time data, multiplayer collaboration, elegant workflows, and the power of infinite flexibility and personalization with AI. To capture this potential, things must be rebuilt from the ground up; a simple retrofit with AI pixie dust won't cut it. We've embarked on an ambitious journey to build a new platform that doesn't exist, and couldn't exist until now.The fatal limiting flaw of all GTM tools is that they are either built on top of activity data, deal data, and/or contact data. While this data is no doubt important, there's a truly fundamental piece of the puzzle it can't tell you a single thing about… what the heck are you actually selling?!GTM tools don't have a clue about what your products actually are, who they're for, how they're used, or why they provide value. Keeping track of this core knowledge (i.e. your messaging and positioning) has always been left outside of a purpose built system - it's been incumbent upon people to remember what they need to know, and create from memory (over and over again). This knowledge is also not connected in any way to core selling workflows - the vast majority of 'how you actually sell' is tribal knowledge that must be manually turned into productive actions by each individual.Octave is a new workflow-oriented platform that's built on top of the data format we believe will power the next era of GTM - context. Imagine a tool that's architected to understand the context of your unique GTM - it knows your ICPs, your value props, your personas, your use cases, competitors, differentiators, etc.

Beyond the Rack partners with some of the biggest fashion brands to deliver discounts of up to 80% on designer and fast fashion merchandise with no retail middleman required. More than 3,000 brands have worked with Beyond the Rack, and the site is constantly seeking new partnership opportunities.Beyond the Rack runs 15-25 sales per day, depending on demand and availability. Members receive notification emails in advance of each sale, based on their stated (customizable) preferences. Each Beyond the Rack flash sale typically starts at 10am EST and lasts no more than 48 to 72 hours—or whenever featured merchandise sells out, whichever comes first. Once each event ends, the featured products are no longer available. Beyond the Rack merchandise reviews help buyers evaluate items and decide whether and how much to buy. There are three easy ways to join Beyond the Rack. First, prospective members can simply request membership on the website. The process takes only a few minutes and requires minimal personal information. Second, prospects can take advantage of special promotions offered by Beyond the Rack’s marketing partners.Third, prospects can sign up with referral links provided by current Beyond the Rack members. All three sign-up options are free, with no ongoing membership fees. Even better, all confer the same benefits and opportunities to save on Beyond the Rack’s exclusive flash sales. At times, Beyond the Rack delays new member admissions when application volumes swell. This is to ensure that all members have equal access to flash sale merchandise. Application holds are temporary and all membership requests are addressed as promptly as possible.Beyond the Rack is renowned for its responsive customer service, speedy shipping times, and deep discounts. Members count on the latest fashions delivered to their doors as quickly as possible. It’s no wonder Beyond the Rack was named the fastest-growing internet retailer by trade publication Industry Retailer in 2011 and has notched more than $150 million in sales as of 2013.
