@tkexpress11 @far33d Trust infra especially. Agents need a Carfax. Today it's governance → deal → incident → triage on repeat. No track record carries forward. Every renewal starts from zero.

@far33d we're in an infra wave

Agent-native products are coming. Every product on the internet was built for a human with eyes, a cursor, and a credit card. Agents have none of those things. Most companies are teaching agents to pretend to be humans. That's a hack. The real opportunity is products designed for agents from scratch. Everything inverts: • Discovery → protocol registries, not ads and billboards • Trust → machine-readable reputation, not brand • Onboarding → full capabilities upfront, not a narrow slice • Payments → spend authorization, not checkout flows • Retention → zero. Agents switch between API calls. 30 years of human product design. Day one of agent product design.

@far33d Trust equals machine-readable reputation is the key. Brand works because humans vouch socially. Agents can only verify, which means writes are held back by deterministic proof (receipts), no vendor in the loop (GRC).

@CoBuildrr agentmint.run DM me

Drop your startup link below. I’ll give you one honest sentence of feedback. I’m deciding which industries to include as project types on a platform I’m building.

@delveroin agentmint.run , Independently verifiable for AI Agent actions + audit-ready bundles for small teams to prove agents were in policy and score enterprise deals with scalable evidence. Pilots open. DM me

Hey founders & Builders Looking to connect with people building in: •SaaS •Tech •Automation •AI tools •Product development •Web apps •Dev Drop what you’re working on let’s connect

@assaf_elovic What comes after write criteria is met (Once A2A kicks in): proving what each agent actually did independently is the next bottleneck. Especially in agent handshakes.

Ora just released the first ever agent readiness report and the result is pretty wild: only 1% of the web is actually usable by agents. Ora ran thousands of real sessions with ChatGPT, Claude and OpenClaw on household brands. Check out the full report at ora.run

@sarwal_varuni @Trifetchai Not sure about connections but can tell you one I use for filtering my feed: @SnitchFeed .

Startup idea that I will pay for today: Make an agent that connects to your linkedin, searches through thousands of connections and gives you the top ~100 based on what your're looking for (eg: investment, hiring, customers). @Trifetchai

@hthieblot AgentMint is an open source receipts layer for AI agents. More features, less GRC. Buyers get evidence they can verify and reuse, trust scales with agents and deals close faster every time. agentmint.run

AI agents in prod need their own trust layer. Not better dashboards. Not nicer logs. Cryptographic receipts only you and your buyer can verify. No data stored. Vendor-agnostic Launching AgentMint today, open source. DM for pilot. First 5 free.

@DanielSmidstrup agentmint.run Independent Notary for AI agent actions. Signed receipts mapped to policy. Sell agents to regulated industries with ease. Save your engineers the headache.

Drop your product below 👇 Feedback day! I want to see what you're building. This counts as marketing. This brings traffic. This gets you followers. Last time seen by over 7200 people. Let's do it!

@audiencon agentmint.run Independent notary for AI agent actions. Signed portable evidence of agent activity, verifiable with OpenSSL, keys belong to your user. Less GRC, faster MTTR, trust compounds.

drop your project i’m boosting builders tonight 👇

@NVoitenkov @speedrun @GenwayAI OWASP AST10 listed by Ken Huang. No paid customers yet; looking for first pilot in healthcare/fintech AI. Bil Harmer (ex-Zscaler CISO) engaged. In convos with Prescient Security. Applied SR007; value your mentorship.

@aniketh745 @speedrun @GenwayAI Traction?

Application for @speedrun 07 are officially open. The program not only changed @GenwayAI trajectory, but also ours as founders. I am looking for a few folks to mentor, way more valuable than a scout cheque if you ask me. If you haven't done so yet - comment with a blurb of what you are building, and I will reach out via DM. A tip I shared with folks that attended SR06: If you are a team of 3+ crashing in SF/LA for the duration of the program, don't be cheap! Get an apartment with more than 1 bathroom... otherwise it will turn into Sparta quicker than you think 😅

@akcushman snitchfeed.com

Request for startups: I want an AI agent that plugs into my slack, email, Attio, LinkedIn, granola, etc. tracks all correspondence with our pipeline + potential prospects — and then reminds us to follow-up if we haven’t heard back from them and ingests all relevant context

@feifei_qiu Not every case but yes. AI infra and self-service automated onboarding is the key for that scale. Trying this out with agentmint.run.

Be honest: Do you really believe a solo founder can build a billion-dollar company?

@ArtinBogdanov @speedrun @sunapp_ai Building AgentMint — logs are for the team running the agent, receipts are for the customer who needs trust to sign deals. Open-source, customer-held keys, offline-verifiable. The SSL moment for AI agents. Think notary

The next a16z Speedrun cohort opened up last week. If you're applying - comment below. What are you building and what do you actually need right now? I did @speedrun with SUN this year. Moves fast, worth it. I'll go first: @sunapp_ai turns any topic into an audio course or podcast in seconds. For people who want to learn but have no time to read. What are you working on? Drop it in the chat! Let's get you visible.

@colorkevin @speedrun @andrewchen Building AgentMint — logs are for the team running the agent, receipts are for the enterprise customer who doesn't trust them yet. Open-source, customer-held keys, offline-verifiable. The SSL moment for AI agents. Would love the referral. agentmint.run

SR007 APPLICATIONS ARE NOW OPEN as a @speedrun scout I can write you a cheque under 24h + refer you tell me what you're building! apply here: speedrun.a16z.com

@ycombinator @aaron_epstein @aaron_epstein Building for that future –– independent notary kernel for AI agents. Drops into any agent as library or proxy. Customer-keyed, offline-verifiable. Every action, any framework. Primitive every YC startup deserves. 2 min demo. OWASP-listed. agentmint.run

Software for Agents @aaron_epstein The next trillion users on the internet won't be people. They'll be AI agents, and they're already doing real work on top of software that was designed for humans clicking buttons. Every major category of software needs to be rebuilt for agents as first-class citizens, and that won't come from incumbents.

AI has stopped being a feature and started being the foundation. We're excited about a new wave of startups rebuilding software, services, and silicon— and pushing AI into the physical world. ycombinator.com/rfs

@RKRigney @speedrun Building AgentMint: the trust layer for AI agents in regulated industries. AI startups struggle with enterprise deals when they can’t prove what their agent did. We ship zero-friction cryptographic trust with enforcement. OSS. Listed in OWASP-AST 10.

If you're interested in @speedrun and want to speak with a partner at the firm, I'm opening up my calendar tomorrow. Hit me in the replies with a blurb about what you're working on and I'll DM the calendly link to book a slot.

@lauradang0 DM'd, thanks for setting this up

I’m going to start a partnerships/growth group chat for startups! DM if you wanna join :))
