FirstClub bucks India’s speed obsession, quickly triples valuation to $120M with premium approach

techcrunch.com Jagmeet Singh 2025-10-19 16:21:08

While quick commerce in India has become synonymous with 10-minute deliveries — and the hottest play for startups and investors — FirstClub is taking a slower, more curated route. Yet just three months after launching its app, the 8-month-old startup has tripled its valuation. At a post-money valuation of $120 million, the Bengaluru-based startup has raised $23 million in a Series A round (comprising more than 90% equity and the rest in debt) co-led by returning investors Accel and RTP Global.

Apple’s Siri upgrade could reportedly be powered by Google Gemini

techcrunch.com Sarah Perez 2025-10-19 16:50:38

In Brief Apple’s Siri overhaul may include an AI-powered web search tool with technology powered by Google’s Gemini, according to a new report from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. The iPhone maker, which has been criticized for falling behind in the AI race, delayed its long-awaited Siri update until 2026. In the meantime, the company has been scrambling to determine whether its own AI models alone will work well enough to make its upgraded Siri competitive with the AI answer engines available today f

And, over time, we built the best coding agent for iOS & MacOS apps. I'm extremely proud of what we accomplished with Alex. Seeing people build software with our work was surreal.

OSMAnd vs. Organic Maps

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-17 09:14:53

There's a new offline mapping program for smartphones, so I thought I'd see how it stacks up against the one I'm already using. For clarity: I'm using the F-Droid releases of both OsmAnd and Organic Maps. I believe that OsmAnd charges for map downloads if you get it from other places. Both programs work most readily with maps loaded onto the device in advance (which is why I feel I should choose—I don't want to have maps for both taking up space). Both of them run off OpenStreetMap data, adapt
