Wato (@watolabs) is building the collaboration layer for teams working with AI agents: shared knowledge, cloud agents, automations, and permissioned tools across the AI subscriptions companies already use. Congrats on the launch, @arihanxv & @rahulrejeev! ycombinator.com/launches/Qet-w…

@rahulrejeev i agree

enterprises love predictable pricing but nowadays one team can accidentally turns Claude into a line item bigger than headcount, I feel for the CFOs

@rahulrejeev living it up in the city

it’s been great living in sf, learning by doing need to leave the apartment more often

Introducing Wato: shared memory and living artifacts for AI in teams. Every team building with agents eventually hits the same wall: The work doesn’t compound. An agent will solve something useful, then the knowledge disappears. It found the right workflow. It found which source is trusted. It figured out the weird caveat. It built the useful dashboard. It wrote the playbook. Then the next agent starts from zero. So we built Wato. So your entire team can go from 0 -> 100 Wato lets agents read from team memory, push reusable knowledge back into memory, share skills across teams, and create refreshable artifacts like live dashboards. Every useful agent run should make the next one better. Private beta is open. Link in comments.

@watolabs this is the future of artificial intelligence in corporations

Asked Wato one messy sales question: “What’s going on with BrightCart, why is the renewal at risk, where’s Eng on the fix, and what should I email them?” It pulled the account status, meeting context, technical blockers, stakeholder guidance, and drafted the follow-up. This is what happens when company context actually works.

@watolabs excited to see what wato can do

Collaboration is changing. The next teammate in your Slack channel might be an agent: one that understands team context, uses approved tools, works in a sandbox, and keeps going while you move on. Wato Cloud Agents are our first step toward that future.

@rahulrejeev seems like a uniform tool to normalize workflows in teams may be necessary?

AI adoption inside companies is increasing, but super uneven. Some people are becoming super users. Others are still hesitant. This creates friction, as teams deal with different speeds, workflows, and expectations. Companies are going to have to deal with this soon.

@rahulrejeev what would it be priced on?

AI token futures would be interesting is anyone working on this?

@rahulrejeev integrated development across teams is essential for improved workflows, especially in this ai intensive era

Enterprise AI shouldn't mean pricier seats and bigger admin dashboards. Current GPT and Claude enterprise plans still leave teams stitching work together across scattered tools. A real enterprise plan makes AI work collaborative by default. That’s what we’re building.

@rahulrejeev great question

@rahulrejeev our high speed rail is a real disappointment

in retrospect, federalism does real work at the fed/state level and actively destructive below it. CEQA, local zoning, council-by-council permitting -> this is where infra goes to die states need to exercise power over counties and cities. its preemption or bust.

@watolabs I agree. Data is gold.

@watolabs definitely

What was said. What was priced. What changed. Research is scattered across datasets, articles, and notes. We made it searchable, citable, and trackable. Wato's macro research corpus: newsletters, FRED data, articles, prediction markets → unified and cited.

@rahulrejeev i agree with you bro

honestly can't imagine whats going on inside his head today ai labs one shotting every saas is going to burst the bubble

@watolabs Super great points

@rahulrejeev checking this out!

Eyes are always on POTUS, but we lose sight of other elected officials. So, I created Voterblock, allowing you to quickly find who your local representatives are and read recent updates about them. Check it out here ⬇️ voterblock.rahulrejeev.com

@rahulrejeev great question... wonder why they never talk about this more

a great town has a symbiotic between public spaces and private businesses. the question is how much of each?

@rahulrejeev wow!

just your average lineup of speakers for a class at stanford ⁉️

@rahulrejeev drop the pset fr

just woke up and immediately thought about drake. second thing on my mind is the PSETs I gotta crank out. we not the same
