Dev Update - Community Rewards

Oh, how time flies. A month went by, and our launch window just hit supercritical. What strikes me the most, however, is how little we’ve talked about you. Yes, the person reading this, the prospective Pluto user who has, to this point, stuck by us and been eager to see us succeed. We can’t thank you enough. But we’re sure as hell going to try. Actually, this has been one of the best-kept secrets of Pluto thus far, and was the detail that, when I was recruited, transformed me from skeptic to t

Pluto in the news - Reuters

Global bond funds saw the biggest outflows in two decades in the first three quarters of this year as hefty interest rate increases by central banks to tame inflation sparked fears of a recession. Governments and companies have borrowed heavily in the past few years, taking advantage of ultra-low interest rates, and they now stare at bigger interest liabilities due to a rise in yields. "The combination of high debt levels and a rise in interest rates has reduced investors' confidence in the go

Dev Update - QuickTests and DeepDives

Another update, another rousing meeting with the team to see what’s been on their minds and on their screens. As we approach several big milestones across the board, it’s only fitting this update takes us back to the very most basic. Iteration by iteration, we strive to put out a better product than ever before, and never has that been more true than here, with our biggest and most granular patch yet. Perhaps it's because I'm sentimental, but I first want to talk perspective before I talk shop.

Dev Update - Competitions

Greetings, one and all! Often times, when I write these updates, I feel compelled to think out loud about just how far Pluto comes in such a short amount of time. How the team can go from ideation to full launch in a window measured in days and weeks rather than quarters, and then immediately find it in themselves to go back to the drawing board because they know they can do better. And there is, to my mind, no better example of this frenetic, head-spinning pace of learning and adapting than the

Dev Update - All Aboard!

It’s been yet another impressive month in what I’ve informally been calling this phase of Pluto’s development “Journey to Liftoff” (though you won’t hear anyone else use it officially, it’s just my fun way of tracking time). And perhaps more than any update I’ve provided in the past, I’m ecstatic for two reasons. One, the progress made was so immediately and viscerally apparent to myself and others that I found myself at a loss for words, and two, we have new data that gives an insight into just
