@arakharazian We are in such early innings that there's no way we'd see evidence of the hit on SaaS just yet. This is all forward looking. Enterprises move at cruise ship speeds so they're the last ones that'll see an impact from the agent-first, usage-based models.

My wife has the best taste in music, fashion, movies of anyone I know -- yet uncharacteristically hasn't seen iconic movies like Lord of the Rings or Mrs.Doubtfire....

I'm noticing when talking to leadership at companies there's a tendency to misunderstand regular rules based automation and LLMs. You don't need LLMs to publish/manage/activate Meta ads. You might need LLMs to understand why an ad isn't/is performing. Understand this = $$$$

Starting tomorrow at 12pm PT, Claude subscriptions will no longer cover usage on third-party tools like OpenClaw. You can still use these tools with your Claude login via extra usage bundles (now available at a discount), or with a Claude API key.

life tip: if you want to lose weight, build an AI agent that orders your groceries every week my clanker wakes up, checks my pantry, decides what I’m eating, and i have zero say. last week i tried to sneak in oreos. it removed them and doubled the greek yogurt 🥹 every week lil bro: - has a db of all my groceries pulled from my current meal plan + diet goals - launches a browser + pulls up instacart - searches my foood - evaluates every result against my preferences if my usual fage greek yogurt is out of stock, it knows to try chobani 0% plain next. if that's gone too, it walks a substitution chain until something fits. and it enforces hard dietary constraints. if i say sugar-free or low-fat, it won't settle! building off of my pizza agent, payment works the same way - USDC on Base funds a virtual card through @LasoFinance and @agentcashdev via x402 - @browserbase stagehand types it into checkout like a human would. browser sessions persist in the database so it doesn't log in every time. if instacart's site changes and selectors break, it catches the drift before ordering anything wrong and sends me a telegram instead. if checkout fails on instacart it falls back to freshdirect. but if checkout succeeds and then something breaks downstream (like internet cutting out or overloaded memory), it stops immediately so it doesn't double-order. the whole process takes ~10 minutes, but i sped it up bc no one wants to watch a clanker navigate a webpage in real time. in 2 years, clankers will instacart's #1 customer. mine already does a weekly run. give an agent a wallet and a schedule and you've got a personal shopper that never forgets what you like.

If you haven't set up RAG for long term memory and fed it context from your messages, notes, Notion, CRM, etc. you can't expect much from it.

Great men of history had little to no introspection. The personality that builds empires is not the same personality that sits around quietly questioning itself. @pmarca and I discuss what we both noticed but no one talks about: David: You don't have any levels of introspection? Marc: Yes, zero. As little as possible. David: Why? Marc: Move forward. Go! I found people who dwell in the past get stuck in the past. It's a real problem and it's a problem at work and it's a problem at home. David: So I've read 400 biographies of history’s greatest entrepreneurs and someone asked me what the most surprising thing I’ve learned from this was [and I answered] they have little or zero introspection. Sam Walton didn't wake up thinking about his internal self. He just woke up and was like: I like building Walmart. I'm going to keep building Walmart. I'm going to make more Walmarts. And he just kept doing it over and over again. Marc: If you go back 400 years ago it never would've occurred to anybody to be introspective. All of the modern conceptions around introspection and therapy, and all the things that kind of result from that are, a kind of a manufacture of the 1910s, 1920s. Great men of history didn't sit around doing this stuff. The individual runs and does all these things and builds things and builds empires and builds companies and builds technology. And then this kind of this kind of guilt based whammy kind of showed up from Europe. A lot of it from Vienna in 1910, 1920s, Freud and all that entire movement. And kind of turned all that inward and basically said, okay, now we need to basically second guess the individual. We need to criticize the individual. The individual needs to self criticize. The individual needs to feel guilt, needs to look backwards, needs to dwell in the past. It never resonated with me.

We were Clay's largest user at one point in time, hitting their platform 17.3 million times per week. Last month we replaced them entirely with a $200/mo Claude Code subscription. I can't write code. Neither can James, my VP of Growth who built the replacement. Here's the full story. Clay is a GREAT product and I TRULY think most people should use it. But we hit their ceiling. 50,000 row limit per table. 12.5 million row cap per workspace. Tables that take days to actually delete. Clicking "run all" thousands of times and waiting days for things to clear out. So When you're processing millions of leads, all the above become the bottleneck of your entire business. James had never touched Claude Code before. Three weeks after learning it, he built our entire core system. With Clay, processing 1 million leads took 27 hours. And it would error out often enough that we would always have to plan on hitting the “run all rows” button again on 20+ clay tables. IYKYK but Our new system waterfall enriches 1 million leads in 5 seconds. 272,000 leads PER SECOND. AND On top of the core engine, we vibe coded a Google Maps scraper that pulls leads zip code by zip code across all 32,000 US zip codes. AND An AI lead finder that hits 95% contact match rates where Apollo gives you about 30%. AND Ad library scrapers for Google and LinkedIn. AND An AI campaign analysis system. AND An auto-refill system so clients never run out of leads mid-campaign. One we started building with Claude, we just couldn’t stop Now we have the data ready for clients sending 5 million emails a month within 1 week of signing the contract. I put together the full system blueprint -- every tool, the tech stack, a Clay vs custom comparison, and a 6-step playbook for building your own. Plus a video walkthrough where I show you the live system and how each tool actually works. Retweet or Reply CODE below and I'll DM it to you.
