If you've noticed @obvious crushing it recently it might have something to do with this! Working with @AnthropicAI to battle test 1M token window has reduced our compaction events by 15% so far and lets our agents run longer with full context on the hard stuff.

context is king @obvious in good company on @AnthropicAI

when you realize things can be obvious

No one talks about this, but the secret to creative excellence is having 8 projects with concurrent deadlines and overlapping meetings and being in a constant state of panic

What does the new age designer look like? Yesterday I submitted multiple PR’s, worked on g2m strategy, fixed some website bugs and deployed, worked on mobile polish, built out brand artifacts and strategy, created a video ad, pitched a product idea which I then designed and will also pm it going forward. @cwattrus Started as a designer and now leads our agent team The role is changing. It’s not just “should designer code". You don’t just do 1 or 2 things. You do many things horizontally. You are a swiss army knife I would become incredibly bored in the old world

What's obvious to you is a TIL moment for someone else

@itsjulianpaul @AntoinePlu @obvious @earlytools 🫧

@AntoinePlu @obvious @earlytools @maxbosch Oh sick! Big fan of that personal website too. Way too clean!

This early product is simply on point, everything! → @obvious by @AntoinePlu is now on @earlytools

Give it a try obvious.ai

Almost 2 years ago I started at Flatfile with the goal to fix data migration. First we built an agent to run data migrations, one of the most complex workflows in business. As we were building, we kept finding solutions that traveled outside of columns and rows. Then we realized something: if you can solve that, why not use our agent to redesign onboarding flows, manage recurring tasks, prepare for calls, build dashboards, write code, query databases, research markets, write documents, create presentations… What started as a small side project exploring how work gets done, grew into our new product called Obvious. There are times when you have to flip a complex concept to simplify it again. When you do it just right, all the dots connect. After months of building, Obvious is now public. How we work is changing. I’m excited to be building a tool that focuses on the systems that allow all of us to do our best work 🌼

Big kudos to @maxbosch for this release 🔥

@obvious new published templates incoming

Happy Monday! What are you building? 👇
