Sesame is available in preview on iOS starting today We spent the last year dialing in the details within a new mobile app that weaves it all together You can read more here: sesame.com/blog/voice-you… Congratulations to the entire team on this milestone. Excited for what's next

@YaakovCohney Not yet, but hopefully in a future update

@natemitchell Can’t wait to try it out! Is it possible to export conversations ?

A collection of personal agents, crafted for everyday conversation. Preview available now on iOS. apps.apple.com/us/app/sesame-…

FirstLook is launching our AI tools today. @firstlookgg Agent is the world's first marketing copilot for games. We collect more in-game and out-of-game signals than anyone. Hundreds of game teams are already using us in beta to answer questions like: "Which players played the demo 10+ hours but didn't buy?" "What do players actually think about the new patch?" "Draft a Discord announcement for lapsed playtesters and send it." "Walk me through setting up an NDA-gated playtest." Tag cohorts, send invites, manage Discord roles, draft campaigns, all from the conversation. We also shipped an MCP server, so studios can pull their FirstLook data into Claude, GPT, Codex, or Cursor and build their own workflows on top. I'm always conflicted when I read an AI announcement. Is this vaporware that was vibe coded last night, or is this going to 2x my productivity? Both have been true for me. For game studios, I haven't personally seen much that's been a net positive. Mostly demoware I can't put into practice. Product and marketing are perfect use cases for AI in games. It's very hard to correlate disparate systems of information into takeaways, but it's very clear what outcomes we want: finding the fun, better player experiences, retaining players, bringing back churned players, and finding new players for cheap. This is just the beginning for FirstLook Agent. Today, you can ask it questions. Soon we'll proactively suggest the biggest growth opportunities for your game, the best places to put your marketing dollars, and a lot more.

Maya and Miles are learning new languages! This week, we deployed a new voice model to our web demo with improved support for Spanish, French, German, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Give it a try and let us know what you think: sesame.com/voicedemo

@Stammy @sesame @brendaniribe Let’s go! 🙌🏼

joining @sesame as head of design today! when I first met @brendaniribe a few months ago, his vision for sesame and his way of talking about design and craft inspired me. felt the same when i met @natemitchell. couldn’t be more excited to build with this amazing team.

We're hiring across all disciplines → sesame.com/careers. Don't hesitate to reach out to me directly

Personal update! I've joined @sesame as Chief Product Officer to help bring computers to life 🚀 Getting the band back together with @brendaniribe, Ryan, and many of the original Oculus crew. Building the future together again

@CorySchmitz @hami @Bungie @josephacross @MarathonTheGame @gtricky77 @eclittlejohn You all crushed it 👏🏼

Getting to work on this brand with @hami & the folks at @Bungie... what an unforgettable experience. So refreshing. I'll never forget when @josephacross showed us Marathon's unbelievable art style for the first time. #MarathonReveal

@Mandoodles @JakeSucky @Gothalion No. Shroud was an advisor and investor. He supported the game as an extended part of the team. Zero marketing dollars went to him

@natemitchell @JakeSucky @Gothalion Hey Nate, Very sorry to hear about the studio closing down - I personally thought the game looked interesting and had a fresh take on a familiar genre. As many others, I found this game through Shroud and I was wondering, was his marketing a large amount of spend in the total?

Spectre Divide and Mountaintop Studios have announced both the game and studio will be shutting down Despite raising $30 million in funding in just the last year

@itsBrodrian @BubkeZ Loved every minute 🙌🏼

@BubkeZ @natemitchell Nate went above and beyond. He was there on the ground floor with us at a moment's notice. He playtested the game with us, took candid feedback, and when he asked if there was anything he could help you with, he was truly ready to jump right in. Sad to see it end like this

This breaks my heart... incredibly sad for everyone involved, especially for @natemitchell who I know did everything he could to make this work. Very sad news.

@TheGameOfHodl @JakeSucky @Gothalion If you bought anything after Season 1 launch, we’ll be refunding that via the platforms. We’re working on that now

@natemitchell @JakeSucky @Gothalion So people that bought supporters editions will be getting their money back? @natemitchell

@Gothalion @JakeSucky Yep, the industry is tough, and we missed the mark. And yeah, Spectre is a big game to develop and operate. Much safer to build at a big established dev, but that didn’t stop us from trying

@natemitchell @JakeSucky PvP market is incredibly difficult. That number still boggles my mind. Sucks to see aspirations not work out
