@SarvamAI Do indie developers qualify for this?

Selected startups get: •⁠ ⁠6 to 12 months of API credits matched to your scale •⁠ ⁠Speech to Text, Text to Speech, Translation, Chat Completion and Document Intelligence APIs •⁠ ⁠Native support for 22+ Indian languages and English •⁠ ⁠Direct access to Sarvam's engineering team for priority support •⁠ ⁠Co-branded case studies and launch amplification when you go live

Today, we're launching the Sarvam Startup Program. AI is the era for builders. We want to compound that momentum by powering the startup ecosystem with high-quality models and tools so they can create with full agency. The program provides credits, priority support, and production-ready infrastructure so startups can focus fully on building.

@jakeottiger congrats and excited to follow this journey :)

last friday was my final day at Thrive. witnessing the herculean effort that went into closing Thrive X was the way to finish. it resembled everything i love and admire about the place and its people. so what's next... i left to build any and all software for any and all businesses. an ~ai~ consulting company of sorts. i've craved to run a service based business like this where i know my customers and they know me. there's no amorphous corporate blob to deal with. clients deal with me. now, with leverage from AI, they can get world class, personalized service from one guy at a reasonable rate. i hope this model lets me build trust and goodwill between tech and the long tail of industries from Anthropic's survey. (important note: i will also work with startups and tech companies given my mandate is literally any business) i've started with a used machine shop in Louisville, a wayfinding company in Cleveland, and a distributor of rags (literal towels not RAG...) in LA. we'll see how it goes...

@calcsam BOOK please

icymi we wrote a new agents book: patterns for building ai agents it has everything you need to take your agents from prototype to production, like agent design patterns, the basics of security, etc reply to this tweet with BOOK and we'll dm you so you can get a copy

@ankurnagpal interested - thanks a lot!

I wrote a Notion guide on what I would do differently as a founder if I were to start from scratch: I talk about equity, fundraising, raising money, taxes, hiring & paying my team, running finance, selling secondaries & exiting Leave a comment & I'll DM you a copy

@BobbyThakkar lovee this!! one for me please!

@r_manoj11 @infography_ai super cool man! congrats!

Today marks a remarkable milestone in my Indie Hacking Journey.😭 I have crossed $40K with @infography_ai. It took 5 months to reach this milestone with @infography_ai 🧵1/5

@JCKHLRY Yes please

I have invite codes for Comet. ☄️ Comment below if you want one.

@saranormous fantastic post - thanks for sharing!

@AravSrinivas natural language search that helps me find websites that i might have forgotten, but wanna revisit. So kind a hybrid of way back machine + realtime version of the webpage

I am interested in hearing some product driven growth ideas and features for the Comet browser as we head closer to the release date. Stuff that will make the browser get more awareness with in-built growth loops. Lmk in comments. Ideas don't need to have anything to do with AI.

@signulll I thought perplexity was great for travel as well! But being able to see an actual persons commentary in Reddit answers for dining and travel was amazing!

i’ve been using reddit answers a ton esp for travel lately & it’s pretty clutch—lots of firsthand, niche advice. def aligns with how llms could be optimized to handle hyper-specific, context-rich queries without endless tabbing. better yet, it bypasses google altogether.

@tamarawinter @dwarkesh_sp @stripepress @narrowd @devinjacoviello Wow such a great landing page!!

Coming [very] soon: @dwarkesh_sp x @stripepress: stripe.press/scaling

@davidsstraight @dhh I can’t accept this 😂

@dhh I spent 30 years thinking /usr was user. Not Unix system resources.

Just dawned on me that in C, stdio.h stands for "standard IO". I'd always read it as "studio". Rather sad to have lost that groovy misconception 🕺🪩

@igorklepacki @mattpocockuk can you please elaborate a bit more on this?

What are the coolest use cases you've seen for MCP? Will highlight the coolest (i.e. most immediately useful/consequential) in a thread below.

@tanayj guessing its the age old amazon fly wheel strategy?

Amazon's Alexa+ pricing is hilarious: • $19.99 per month • Or free with Prime (which costs $14.99 per month)

@AravSrinivas Search based on mental context - “the blog post that I read few weeks ago that talked about agency vs intelligence”. Guess for your enterprise plan (if there’s one) this can be expanded as teams memory?

Browse like a Billionaire. What do you want to see in Comet ? Apart from all the usual suspect AI features like smarter Deep Research and basic agent workflows. Just the core browsing improvements that Chrome hasn’t shipped for ages. Please reply here!

@karrisaarinen Just used the slack conversation -> linear issue flow. such a bliss!

AI should make something better and not serve as a marketing gimmick

#Industry season 3 is just exceptional!!

@ankurnagpal @sebfung ✈️

Everyone should learn how to use credit card points to travel the world in style We recorded a premium video course with an expert @sebfung to break down exactly how it works The course is typically $299, but free for the next 24 hours RT or Comment ✈️ and I'll DM it to you

@5harath All the best!

Some news: I'm taking the biggest leap in my life and I'm thrilled to share it with y'all today 😤 tl;dr - I'm going all in and betting on myself 💪 Why now: I recently got my work authorization, allowing me to do anything I want without relying on a full-time job—this is the most exciting moment in my career! What's next: My goal is to build my own startup(mostly venture-backed) in the coming months 🚀 The scariest part is that I don't know what I will build but I'm confident I will figure it out. Reality is a bitch: As pumped as I am writing this, reality doesn't change overnight and I need to pay my bills so I'm opening up a few hrs a week for part-time consulting work. Founders, if you need any help with community, GTM, or building in public, hit me up - my DMs are open. Let me help you 🙌 Lastly, I'm grateful for these 3 people who gave me the courage to take this step: - My wife for believing in me more than I believe in myself and signing up to ride this uncertain future. - @polina_marinova for writing Hidden Genius. The stories in that book gave me so much hope and belief. - @FoundersPodcast for constantly showing me it can be done. Every ep David did gave me enough reasons to believe in myself. I know it's going to be fucking challenging and hard, but I feel I owe myself the chance to TRY, so I'm telling myself - LET'S FUCKING GO!

Thank you #Thala that 6 was enough #ChennaiSuperKings
