WFH from Tulum. Mexico City. Rio de Janeiro

Casai is the coolest LATAM startup you’ve never heard of.

Backed by $48M from a16z’s @astrange they’re using a mix of arbitrage, hardware, and customer obsession to replace AirBnB in emerging markets.

Here’s how it works 👇
.@hellocasai is like a vertical AirBnB

Launched in Mexico City after founder @nicobarawid stayed in one too many airbnbs without WiFi, Casai designs + manages each short term rental they list

WiFi, security, housekeeping, booking - it’s all in house

casai.com/en?currency=USD
But what fascinates me is the Win-Win-Win business model

For customers, for building owners, and for Casai

The Problem:

There are beautiful AirBnBs in Mexico City priced at $9-$18 a night.

But knowing nothing about neighborhoods in Mexico City I'd hesitate to stay at one

Creators are the future of ecommerce.

But the single hardest part of launching a DTC brand is physically making a product.

That's why Pietra, a startup backed by $15M from @rabois and FF is bringing factories into the cloud.

Creator in the front. Supply chain in the back. 🧵
First Why creators? Pietra is betting that a single creator can launch the next best selling product line.

There's some precedent:
George Clooney's Casa Migos ~$1B
Rihanna's Savage X Fenty ~$1B
Kylie Cosmetics ~$1B
The Kardashian's...
And influencers have tools CPGs don't.

They can iterate on DTC products faster and more accurately by going direct to their audience - who is also their customer.
