At the end of a job interview, Charlie Houpert says don't waste "do you have any questions for us?" Ask this instead: "Let's say that this interview went really well, and a year from now I got the job and you're looking back. What would I have had to have done in order for you to feel like it was a good decision?"
It gets them imagining hiring you, and it hands you the playbook to excel. The same question works when you want a raise.
@CharlieHoupert
WebMCP by Microsoft and Google is HERE and I'm surprised more people aren't talking about it.
Why does it matter?
BILLIONS of dollars are about to move through agents, and the internet isn't built for them yet.
1. SEO was about Google understanding your page.
2. AEO was about AI citing you.
3. WebMCP is about the agent actually finishing the job (buying, researching, requesting quote etc).
WebMCP is basically websites with agent buttons.
Instead of an agent scanning a page like a human, screenshotting and guessing where to click, the site just tells it "here's how to search, here's how to book, here's how to buy."
2 cash flowing businesses you could start today using WebMCP:
1. A WebMCP conversion agency
Make boring business websites agent-ready. Law firms, HVAC, med spas, dentists. Build them the first tools (request a quote, book a consult), sell the setup for $2k, then charge a few hundred a month to monitor and improve it.
2. An agent mystery shopper.
Test whether agents can actually complete the important journeys on someone's site, buying the hoodie, booking the consult, filing the claim. Hand them a report on where the agent got stuck, missing tools, bad descriptions, lost conversions. Charge monthly, then turn the repeated fixes into software.

A few days ago, I posted a breakdown about why experienced devs are suddenly coding with agents.
I've never seen one of my videos get quoted so much. The last third really seems to have resonated.
Decided to share it here in full 🫡
