1000%. The expense of writing software was and still is high. Whether it’s commercial software company or an internal team writing custom software, the return on that investment depends on many things outside of the code itself.

When I initially saw this I was excited because what I’m trying to solve for is visibility of both semi and fully autonomous and agents at runtime. Marble is an improvement over chat and Claude but it’s incremental IMO. We’ve toyed with a m

For clarity, inference is typically a COGS and therefore hits Gross Margin vs model training which would typically be in OpEx (where R&D lives) and would hit operating margin.

Feels like we’re continuing to trend toward deterministic workflows which may actually be okay in 90% of cases. Reality is there’s a lot of unnecessary token burn happening right now. Simple market dynamics will solve that, i.e., when token

And I think it’s less about letting agents modify the product source. That’s more of a platform capability which should also be a requirement for certain types of use cases. All comes back to listening to and / or innovating for custom

“Their relationship with the software is one of pure dependency, and when the software doesn’t do what they need, they just… live with it” Or, more likely, they churn off the product. The SaaS platforms that will survive are busy RIGHT NOW

I think we are both saying similar things here (believe it or not). Sales leaders turnover with surprising frequency - 18-24 months. About the time the sales team tells you what they “want” and you fine tune it, they will be gone. The next

I wish I could upvote this more than once. The author gets it, you have to sell outcomes. Not features. Seems like every open source company that doesn’t market an outcome to buyers will face a similar threat. And this particular go to mark

It’s sort of difficult to understand why this is even a question - LLM-based / judgment dependent workflows vs script-based / deterministic workflows. In mapping out the problems that need to be solved with internal workflows, it’
