The @TryRamp top vendors list is our favorite list to be on because it's one of the few 'real' benchmarks out there. This is our second time on it. A year ago, it was @Stedi alongside a bunch of other SaaS and a few AI companies. Now, we're the first non-AI company to be on the list in 5 months. There is still an enormous market for API-first, network-based SaaS – agents need efficient and reliable ways of connecting to the otherwise-illegible real world (in our case, we handle connectivity to 3,500+ different healthcare insurance companies for claims processing) – but building a defensible business in these categories is a huge investment of time and capital. Nine years in, we're growing faster than ever. We're hiring across many roles – engineering, design, product, GTM, legal, ops, recruiting, and more. If you're looking to be a part of something special for the long term, drop me a note.

Had a great time at @AWSEvents re:Invent talking about the @Stedi agent. We built and launched the first version in <2 weeks using Bedrock AgentCore – from talking to other founders, it seems that AgentCore is one of the best kept secrets in software (hopefully not for long).
Stedi@stedi

We shipped the Stedi Agent – from first design doc to public announcement – in 13 days. At re:Invent, our founder @zackkanter got to sit down with AWS Director of Technology, Olawale Oladehin, to talk about how we built the agent and the design philosophy behind it. One key principle he shared: Quality doesn't mean slowing down. Instead, we ruthlessly cut scope to maintain high quality at speed. That focus lets us quickly ship simple – but powerful – features that our customers care about. Thanks to Amazon Web Services (AWS) for hosting and the invite. Link to the full recording below.

We’re hiring a Product Manager @stedi to work on Claims and Enrollments (and some other soon-to-come products). You’ll work directly with me, our PMs, designers, and engineers and engineering managers. We ship like crazy – check out our blog and changelog in the replies – and work with hundreds and hundreds of the sharpest customers in healthcare. Each one has a dedicated Slack/Teams channel, which means we have a firehose of feedback about everything we launch (and tons of requests for the things we haven’t launched yet!). It’s a steep ramp to build developer-focused products in revenue cycle management. At least some RCM experience is required and an engineering/CS background is strongly preferred. If this sounds like you, drop us a line (link in reply).

Change Healthcare – the nation's largest clearinghouse for insurance claims and payments – has been down for 13 days and counting due to a cyberattack. It's an absolute crisis – doctors, hospitals, and other providers can't get paid. What is a clearinghouse? What is going on? 🧵

The EDI industry revolves around fees – trading partner fees, transaction fees, even 'kilocharacter' fees (really). Customers assume they're being taken advantage of, but the reality is that these fees reflect the cost structure of a typical EDI provider’s business. (1/n)

More of my programming time is micro-waiting for an AI to type the crap I've typed 10 times already today. I'm ok with that.

Is there a German word for closing one applications' main window, to find the dialog box of another cowering behind it?

Hot off the Stedi engineering blog press: we benchmarked four AWS-native deployment methods in order to see how much latency overhead each method introduced. The results weren't surprising – there's plenty of room for improvement. stedi.com/blog/relative-…

@tlakomy @zackkanter Oh yeah, we rewrote everything while you weren't looking. It's all custom infra, bare metal deployments now. I hear Zack's been shopping for a data centre or three.
