All the hate and fear around the Netflix/Warner Bros deal is both silly and comically shortsighted. 3,000 words on the past, present, and future... spyglass.org/netflix-warner…

Competitor research takes me 2 minutes now. Built a scraper that monitors websites, tracks price changes, and extracts product data automatically. Claude AI pulls contact info, pricing, and company details straight into Google Sheets. Used to spend 10-15 hours monthly doing this manually. Now it updates every hour while I focus on closing deals. Comment "SCRAPE" and I'll DM it to you (must be following)

I spent weeks researching 2025's hottest AI opportunities. Found 50 business ideas that actually make money using current tech. Each idea includes revenue paths, MVP scope, and exact tech stack needed. Perfect for solopreneurs ready to capitalize on the AI boom before everyone else catches on. Skip months of market research and failed experiments. Comment "IDEAS" and I'll DM it to you (must be following)

An open question was answered today - "what will the AI-native distribution channel be?" It looks like ChatGPT will be that channel with 800M active users + the Apps SDK. This is likely as important as Steve Jobs announcing the app store in March of 2008 ...

The Age of AI Agents Has Already Begun AI Assistants improve your workflow. AI Agents replace it. That leap is the difference between a better product and a new category. But most people still don’t get the difference. They’re adding AI features to their existing tools. A little auto-summary here. A chat window there. They call it a “copilot.” It feels helpful. It demos well. And it’s exactly how they fall behind. Because Assistants are the last step in an old era. Agents are the first step in a new one. The Last Era Was Built Around the User Interface Think back to the last SaaS revolution. It was all about who could create the best UI. Clear dashboards. Easy configuration. Simpler onboarding. The best SaaS companies weren’t smarter. They were just nicer to use. That era is over. Now everyone’s interface looks the same. Your product isn’t competing on usability anymore. It’s competing on agency. The Assistant Trap Here’s what most companies are doing right now: Add a chatbot to their existing product. Fine-tune some prompts for the most common tasks. Ship an “AI copilot” feature. And they stop there. But if your AI still needs the user to ask it to do something, you're not building a smarter product. You're building a busier one. You’re handing the user more power, but still making them do the work. That’s not leverage. That’s delegation. The Real Shift: From Tools to Teammates An AI Assistant is like a great intern. You tell it what to do, and it does it quickly. An AI Agent is like a great operator. It already knows what needs to get done, and it starts doing it before you even think to ask. That’s the line. Once crossed, the product stops being a tool you use and becomes a teammate you rely on. And when that happens, your category doesn’t just evolve. It splits. Here’s What Happens Next The best startups in this next wave won’t just have fewer buttons. They’ll have no interface at all. You’ll log in and your campaign’s already optimized. Your landing page is already deployed. Your insights are already surfaced. You’ll get the result without needing to know the prompt. The product doesn’t wait. It watches, learns, and acts. Most SaaS Startups Are Repeating the Windows Phone Mistake In 2007, Microsoft responded to the iPhone by... adding touch to Windows Mobile. It was a “smart” move. It looked modern. It technically worked. And it died. Because the iPhone didn’t add touch, it rethought the operating system from scratch. That’s the opportunity AI Agents give us now. Not to bolt on features. To reimagine the product’s foundation. Build the Agent, or Become the Interface Here’s the hard truth. If your product isn’t evolving into an Agent, it’s on its way to becoming an API. Someone else will build the Agent that sits on top of it. And then you become the infrastructure. Invisible. Replaceable. Forgotten. That’s why this shift matters. It’s not just about user experience. It’s about existential risk. The Takeaway If your AI product still needs human prompts, it’s already behind. Startups that win the next era won’t use the word “assistant” at all. They’ll build systems that act, learn, and evolve without being told. Because the next great products won’t ask the user what to do. They’ll already be doing it.

After working with product leaders I've long admired, I'm returning to an operating role with @meetgranola. When I left my startup ~2.5 years ago, I never thought my next career chapter would be with the product leaders whose content had shaped my own PM journey. I'm deeply grateful for the opportunity to have worked with @lennysan, @shreyas, and @nikhyl. I feel very lucky to have learned from people who were product leaders at some of the most iconic companies, founded acquired startups, and created impactful career tracks outside of the traditional career path. - Thank you to the community members I met on Slack and in-person around the world at Lenny's Community, Product Club, and Product Sense Club. - Thank you to the active community members and volunteers that help make these communities what they are. - And thank you to the Skip Community - as someone who left the PM path early on, it was inspiring to work with and learn from Skips. For my next chapter, I'm thrilled to have moved back to London after ~8 years away. I'll be focused on Granola's Enterprise sales and product. If you're visiting London, interested in purchasing Granola for your team or joining Granola, please reach out!

I am researching college counseling / essay help for my son. Seems like the feedback is a lot like General Contractors get for home remodels — almost no one loves the one they picked, even if they had decent results 😱 Do you know a great college counselor / essay firm? DMs open

FIX YOUR LOWER BACK! By popular demand, here’s my complete mobility routine for the lower back. Nearly 2 years ago I severely herniated a disc at L5-S1. I narrowly avoided emergency surgery. Even before that I had struggled with chronic lower back pain for 10+ years. I’ve spared no expense in my search for a cure. I tried everything short of invasive treatments (stem cells and surgery). What I learned along the way is that much of what the medical establishment tells you about the cause and the cure for back injuries is WRONG. The root cause of your chronic back pain is almost certainly *lack of mobility and strength* in the posterior chain (hamstrings, hips, glutes, back, abs) — especially the intricate scaffold of muscles up and down the spine. That's why outcomes for back surgeries are so abysmal—it doesn't address the real problem. So it stands to reason that the cure is to MOVE, building strength and range of motion. For the first time I feel like I’m steadily gaining ground and have a real shot at coming back even better than before my injury. I’m already doing things (like Jefferson Curls) that I never thought would be possible. Here’s my current program, which I consider a “best of” collection of mobility exercises for the back. I do the full program about 3 times a week and a subset of the exercises (the first 5) another couple times. 🧵

MENTORS / ADVISORS Leaders: when you move an employee into a role that necessitates new skills (eg: Individual Contributor to Manager, Manager to Manager-of-Managers, Engineer to Product Manager, etc), one of the biggest gifts you can give them is to simultaneously get them a mentor / coach for their first year. This coach is a person who has several years of experience with the skillset (eg: an experienced Engineering Manager, an experienced Product Manager, etc). The coach should definitely not be in the same team (maybe not even at the same company) as the employee, so the employee can get advice on sensitive topics without worry. The first year in a new role is critical, and the right mentor can be the difference between success and failure. For startups, these mentors can be angel investors in your company, or you can bring on a mentor as advisor for equity. At Square, @BillCoughran and Greg Badros were mentors / advisors for eng managers (many of whom were battlefield promotions), and folks found sessions with them to be incredibly valuable. It really helped that neither worked at Square, so folks felt comfortable confiding in them. tl;dr To help employees succeed when they change roles, strongly consider mentors.

I look forward to a time when, instead of presenting some internal slide deck or doc, PMs can come to a product review with an actual prototype that execs can play with. I think this time is fast approaching with AI prototyping tools like v0. Nothing beats playing with the actual product.
