Yes, that's true but the valuation doesn't seem right imo. I'm not a expert btw but still

Calendly’s $3 billion valuation feels too high. It’s a useful tool, but it’s just for scheduling. The price seems driven by hype, not long-term potential.

Yup. Still anyways the investors are smarter than us so they know what they are doing. They would be having some secret plans. Who knows?

Can say but maybe the investors are just riding the trend, hoping it’ll pay off. Sometimes, even they don’t have all the answers.

Hmm, that's true. .com was an example. Same is happening now with all ai startups. That's another bubble

Maybe we're correct but mostly these AI startups( I would say chat gpt wrappers) —they're overhyped, leading to inflated prices that might not last.

Maybe. And also as an investor, you are just looking for that 1 huge exist (like Facebook) which will pay off all the losses so investing even at higher valuation makes sense.

Valuation vs Dilution - They’re Not the Same Thing Here’s the truth: Valuation is just a number. Dilution is the actual cost. If your valuation is ₹10Cr and you raise ₹2Cr → you’re giving up 20% But if your valuation is ₹6Cr and you raise ₹1.5Cr →
