Apps inside ChatGPT are the way to get your business discovered by 900M+ people using it, but building them is still too hard. So we built Fractal: @Lovable for ChatGPT Apps It’s the fastest way for business owners, with or without a technical team, to ship exceptional ChatGPT apps

agents are the software market from now on build something agents choose cli/api first

@karpathy I suspect we’ll start to see a Darwinian effect in software where the products without the comprehensive APIs or CLIs will just slowly die off. The forces are just too strong on this one.

@levie APIs as the atomic irreducible core of your product that AI or competition can't take away. Perfect for agents.

💯 "If you build it, they will come." :) ~Every business you go to is still so used to giving you instructions over legacy interfaces. They expect you to navigate to web pages, click buttons, they give out instructions for where to click and what to enter here or there. This suddenly feels rude - why are you telling me what to do? Please give me the thing I can copy paste to my agent.

@rauchg API as the moat

In the coming months, you’ll want to make sure your API Product is usable by Agents. Here’s your checklist to plan your Q4 and 2026 Product Roadmap. Get a hi-res printable version and learn more about my upcoming course, Build AI-Ready APIs on @MavenHQ: maven.com/p/287814

For this first cohort I'll be including a full year of Lenny's Newsletter, which also includes access to an incredible Slack community and the full AI product pass - IYKYK

The official MCP Registry is here! An open catalog and API designed to solve how MCP servers are discovered. It doesn't host the actual server code. It stores metadata (server.json) that points to packages in other registries like NPM, PyPI, and Docker Hub, standardizing server distribution. - Stores metadata (server.json) that points to packages in other registries - Includes servers from NPM, PyPI, Docker, NuGet, and MCPB formats. - Encourages "sub-registries" on top of it, for curation, security scans, or custom metadata. - Dedicated Publisher CLI tool to easily add and integrate servers - REST API (GET /v0/servers) to programmatically discover and list servers - Community-maintained and includes a process for flagging and denylisting servers - Authentication with GitHub OAuth or custom domain DNS verification.

This weekend, I’m running a hands-on workshop for PMs, Architects & Engineers that want to upgrade their API skills. 🧑‍💻 You'll build an MVP with @OpenApiSpec and @Replit, and you'll publish your first MCP server! Build AI-Ready APIs is live on @Maven: tinyurl.com/aiapis

How do you use AI to create an API Dev Portal in 20 minutes? Join @robakid , CEO of @TheneoAPIDoc and me for a free live lesson where you can get hands-on & generate your own dev portal with AI. Sign up for "Create AI-Powered API Documentation Fast": maven.com/p/33bd21/cre...

@aaditsh @shl Good estimates here. For API Products we’re able to designs and prototype in minutes so you can go do discovery. And once validated, you can build, document and deploy the API again in minutes. Full videos and demos of how to do this on @MavenHQ: maven.com/emmanuel

This guy literally breaks down the future of PM with AI in just 45 mins

@tferriss Suggestion for 5BF article: The 3 person Unicorn startup: nfx.com/post/3-person-…. Right up your alley I think. Also would love to hear an interview of @JamesCurrier on the podcast. Thanks!

Would you like to get a short e-mail from me every Friday with the five coolest things I’ve found that week? It might include books, gadgets, albums, articles, new hacks/tricks, and all sorts of weird stuff I dig up around the world. Sign up here: tim.blog/friday 🙌

Anyone I know messed around with OGC APIs? Would love to geek out on details (ogcapi.ogc.org)

Hi @flysfo my airline has delayed my bag. It’s been a week and tracing shows it arrived at SFO on Monday. I’m waiting for it to be delivered but it’s taking too long. Is there a way to come pick it up? They are not giving me any helpful info about progress and I need my bag.
