General Proximity vs Figma
Side-by-side comparison of AI visibility scores, market position, and capabilities
Cambridge MA YC W20 induced proximity medicines (molecular glues/PROTACs) targeting undruggable proteins; $16M Series A Jan 2025 Tomales Bay Capital competing with Arvinas and C4 Therapeutics for protein degradation oncology platform.
About
General Proximity is a Cambridge, Massachusetts-based biotechnology company — backed by Y Combinator (W20) with $16 million in Series A funding in January 2025 led by Tomales Bay Capital — pioneering induced proximity medicines that work by bringing together disease-causing proteins to trigger their degradation or modulation, representing a next-generation therapeutic modality beyond traditional small molecule inhibitors and biologics. Founded in 2020, General Proximity combines computational chemistry, medicinal chemistry, and structural biology to design molecular glues and PROTACs (proteolysis-targeting chimeras) for previously undruggable targets in oncology and other disease areas — targeting the protein degradation mechanisms that cells use naturally to eliminate aberrant proteins.
Dominant browser-based collaborative UI design platform at ~$600M ARR and $12.5B valuation; Adobe's $20B acquisition blocked by regulators in 2023, Figma remains independent competing with Sketch and Adobe.
About
Figma is a San Francisco-based collaborative web-based product design platform that has become the dominant tool for UI/UX designers and product teams — enabling real-time multi-user collaboration on interface design, prototyping, and design system management directly in the browser without installing desktop software. Founded in 2012 by Dylan Field and Evan Wallace and backed by Sequoia, Greylock, and Andreessen Horowitz with over $330 million raised, Figma generated approximately $600 million in ARR in 2023, serving 4 million+ designers and product teams at companies including Microsoft, Airbnb, Twitter, and Uber. Adobe announced a $20 billion acquisition offer in 2022, which was blocked by regulators in 2023 — Figma remains independent.
