Say hello to Mux Robots 🤖 The first batch of AI workflows native to your video pipeline are live now: translate, summarize, moderate, generate chapters, spot key moments, and ask questions. 10 years ago we started Mux, and two of our founders became the two bros that chilled. Today we’ve got clankers that can analyze video for us. What a world. Read our blog: mux.com/blog/mux-robots

Forbes’s AI 50 List highlights the world’s most promising privately-held AI companies, judged on commercial traction, technical talent, and how seriously they've embedded AI into what they build. @AnthropicAI, @cursor_ai, @cyera_io, @DecagonAI, @GammaApp, @WeAreLegora, @Lovable, @perplexity_ai, @speak, @SynthesiaIO, and @thinkymachines made the list. In what Forbes called a highly competitive field, this is a testament to these teams’ sharp ideas and real technical depth. Read the full article: forbes.com/lists/ai50/

Vercel's Sandbox + Egress integration has been great. Using it with our slackbot (Junior) to isolate every session.

Vercel Sandboxes are now the fastest sandbox using real VMs as security boundary based on the @computesdk benchmark. The team has been absolutely cooking on this. And the best thing: Because we have a unified Fluid Compute stack across Sandbox, Builds, and Functions these wins are often shared across the stack. On the feature side there is a really exciting roadmap ahead as well. My favorites (all driven by feature requests from our customers): - Persistent sandboxes (in beta, GA immanent) - The fully mutable firewall also becomes fully programmable

Few things beat getting founders in a room with Jensen Huang. We loved bringing together our portfolio companies for a few hours @nvidia — a rare chance to hear firsthand how one of the great builders of our time thinks about what's next.

@sentry now takes you from Seer's root-cause analysis to a Claude-powered agent that writes the fix and opens a PR. They built the integration on Managed Agents in weeks: claude.com/customers/sent…

Loving this 🔥 video! AI has accelerated what we can produce with code — but also how quickly it can be exploited. depthfirst, the applied AI lab on a mission to secure the world's code, announced their Series B today. @Accel is proud to have led their Series A. Onward!

.@public is rolling out AI agents to help users automate their investments. CEO @malling outlines the details: cnb.cx/3PGWHQX

Public, a privately held brokerage firm, is rolling out a feature allowing customers to use AI to automate their investing tactics and execute trades on.wsj.com/3QbezDu

NEW: You can now build AI Agents that monitor the market, manage your cash, and execute your trades. The Agentic Brokerage has arrived.

We just built the #1 tool every AI team wants. Introducing @merge_api Gateway: LLM routing, fallback, cost guardrails, and security, all in one place. Everyone gets $10 free LLM usage on us to try it out. RT+ comment “Gateway” → we’ll double your credits.

There are now 7M developers using @supabase Signups have been accelerating since the start of the year Our growth rate right now is as fast as it was during YC, except that we are doing it from a base of millions of developers instead of thousands

Chart of the Day: In just 6 years, @supabase went from zero to 7M+ users. The real story? 80%+ of that growth was just from the last year alone. From January 2025 to today, Supabase added ~6M+ new users driven by their acceleration to support developers in the AI supercycle.

@OpenAI announced today that it’s acquiring @astral_sh. This is a testament to @charliermarsh and the entire Astral team’s craft, dedication, and skill for building tools that developers love. Thank you to Charlie and to everyone at Astral for welcoming us as partners on this journey. We’re cheering you on in this next chapter.
