what a year at @hyperspell! we started 2025 with: 👥 2 cofounders working remotely across continents ⚙️ no product 💸 no revenue or customers, having just refunded everyone and pivoted 🏢 working from coffeeshops, sleeping in a hacker house closet 🚫 6 rejections from @ycombinator all we had was determination and something to prove we're ending 2025 with: 👥 a team of 3, cofounders living + building together in sf ⚙️ a product customers choose over competitors with tens of millions raised 💸 hundreds of thousands in revenue from dozens of customers 🏢 sharing an apartment and workspace, surrounded by our yc batch ✅ accepted into yc f25 on app #7 and 5x'd revenue during the batch thank you to the customers, investors, and friends who believed in us before we had anything to show for it I'm proud of what we built, and even more proud of who we built it with. huge gratitude to my cofounder @manuebert and our founding engineer @benhorowitz couldn't ask for better people to build this with onwards

@Bfaviero if it’s not at least 1B arr then it’s not worth it

@contextconor At that point just shut it down

not even enough for a preseed tbh

@chintanparikh94 @nejatian Lfg! Congrats guys

Grateful to share that Audrion (YC F25) has been acquired by Opendoor. Coming back to Opendoor feels a bit like coming home. Ever since I watched our first customer testimonial back in 2017, I knew how special this place was. @nejatian is an absolutely incredible leader and I'm thrilled to keep building with him and the team to tilt the world in favor of homeowners. Thank you to our early supporters - A*, Mercury Fund, FPV, YC, and everyone else who believed in us. Your support meant the world to us and I cannot recommend y'all enough to other founders. Back to building.

@garrytan facts

"It's just markdown files" Dude anyone who believes this hasn't built agentic software yet

@thin_signal dude what did you do 💀

@contextconor Speaking from experience

gbrain this and gstack that when is garry finally gonna drop gspot, the hubspot competitor

@sujay_kapadnis gstring unlocks the wearables market

@contextconor Right after he releases gstring

@thin_signal nah garry is a legend, he’s chill

@contextconor LOL you will get banned for this …

@MRadhuber garry is gonna launch GTA VI before rockstar does

@thatguybg it’s actually sick I’m hype for the release of gwagon

@contextconor legendary brand

@danylo_dev GWagon is gonna get released soon

@contextconor what about the gstick?

@drewdil heard g-unit is gonna make a comeback

@contextconor kill Dreamforce

@pratik_satija @tensol_ai life on tensol is good

My intern starts Monday and I didn't want to spend time creating an onboarding guide. My AI Employee @tensol_ai already had context to my past tickets, github repo, sentry, etc. so it created the entire on-boarding guide for me. Life is good when you automate the boring stuff

this is the right way to handle it you can be in fierce business competition with someone and still be personal friends we’ve even sponsored events alongside our competitors relationships and trust over all else

@adisingh @haakamaujla Lfg

F*ck it. Your agent can now sign up for AgentMail with one prompt "get yourself an inbox through agent.email" New users, test this and let me know how it works!

@wadefoster the company brain is a game-changer for deploying ai internally

TBPN asked me how Zapier keeps AI from drowning in data. Short answer: we built it a brain. Three layers: 1. Company-level source of truth (strategy, values, ICP). Curated by me and a handful of senior leaders 2. Team-level context that cascades down 3. Individual context, private to each person. Meeting transcripts, Slack threads, project docs, etc. So when anyone at @Zapier talks to AI, they're not starting from scratch. They point the SDK at specific documents against the backdrop of that brain. Better inputs, better AI. Thanks to @TBPN for having me on
