Building Vox Labs, an AI-powered outbound sales platform for founders, small sales teams, and agencies. The idea is you work with it the way you'd direct an SDR: give it guidance and it handles research, enrichment, personalization, an

The local-first angle is interesting, especially for CRM data. Seeing this trend in observability and data engineering use cases as well.

Been running Claude Code and the $200/month has been one of the better value decisions I've made as a founder. The more interesting question is where the margins go as inference costs keep dropping. At some point the pricing press

The practical question I keep coming back to: if the output is meaningfully different and faster, at what point does the reimplementation argument become less about the code and more about the reputation and distribution the original projec

The supply side problem is what killed this. Asking artists to opt in to something that most of their peers openly oppose is a brutal cold outreach problem before you even get to the product. 1 in 4 artists using the free tier for their own

The human-in-the-loop framing gets undersold in these debates. From what I've seen, the people getting the most out of this stuff aren't replacing judgment, they're delegating the parts that didn't need judgment in the f

Nice work shipping this. The BEAM's fault tolerance model makes a lot of sense for agent workloads, been thinking about similar tradeoffs on the orchestration side. Curious what the failure recovery looks like when an agent mid-run hit

Been running Claude Code pretty heavily for the past few months. Curious to try 5.4 on some of the same tasks and see how it compares, especially on longer agentic runs where context management starts to matter.

The productivity-to-workload compression point is real, but I think the more interesting dynamic is what happens to team shape over time. Running a small sales team with agents, the bottleneck shifted from execution to judgment almost overn
