@will_marq Nice! that's the spirit!

+50.3% WoW growth.

meanwhile, my MRR grows by 50.3% every time i open Stripe and imagine what could be 😭

jokes aside, Pancake is moving FAST. from jumping out of a plane to #1 on Product Hunt to growing at this pace.

founder-led marketing is alive and well 🥞

[Will Marquis @will_marq]

it's been 10 weeks of 50% week-over-week growth with https://t.co/rNOxMpru82

no matter how many startups you’ve built, the next one still makes you feel like a beginner. there’s always something you’ve never done before that you suddenly need to figure out.

jumping out of a plane, trying to break a guinness world record. it's all fun!

but the best part is still realizing you’ve built something other people think is worth paying for.

more to come!

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

@will_marq 50% WoW for 10 weeks is serious. Congrats.

That “still feel like a beginner” line is real, and the fact that people are actually paying for it is the best part

We’re opening a research preview of Claude Duet, a new app where Claude works as a proactive agent.

It comes to you with what needs your attention, completes tasks you ask of it, keeps working when you step away, and checks with you before it acts on your behalf.

@andorkope @claudeai Yes! is awesome

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

@claudeai ok so Max 5x gets $100 a month in API credits and Max 20x gets $200?? I've been sleeping on this

Works for the API, Agent SDK and Managed Agents.

Link a Console org in billing settings, no card needed.

Don't let it expire, it doesn't roll over

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

@JulieFrench_ @AnthropicAI Haha, yea probably. Waiting for it

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

@JulieFrench_ @AnthropicAI Thank you! Hopefully will be accepted

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

@LucasFlandre you should try it 👀

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

we test our products with humans all the time. but have you ever watched an AI agent try to use yours?

not a benchmark. not a synthetic score. an actual attempt to get something done with your product.

if agents can't figure out how to use what you've built, that's potential customers and revenue you're leaving on the table.

Scope makes that experience visible, so you can see what needs fixing.

curious what it would uncover in my own products 👀

How good are AI Agents at using your tool?
Find out with Scope: https://t.co/s5nyyphvoL

We partnered with @AgentMail to test 25 model and harness combinations across 7 email tasks.

AgentMail co-founder @adisingh shares why they needed an eval in the first place and why they chose Scope to run it 👇

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

@anandPa94 most probably, can't wait to see 🔥

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

@anandPa94 @agentmail @adisingh Impressive scale and approach curious which model + harness combo came out on top for the email tasks

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

@Sherifdeenolat2 yea I know, i was curious

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

do somebody build startups with python around here?

[Robby Frank @RobbyFrank]

Followers are the most overrated number on X.

@marclou has 70x more followers than me and is arguably the most successful indie hacker here. I still make 5x more than him, and the gap is growing.

Maybe 0.1% of our customers come from X. If your plan is "grow an audience first, sell later", you picked the slowest way to make money on the internet.

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

Tried https://t.co/3wHawWCRN5 again. Searched "ai engineer" and the search pushes users first, not articles. Clicked through every post for the query, scrolled 5-10 minutes, and found zero articles. Just YouTube videos, X posts and more noise.

I really thought https://t.co/3wHawWCRN5 was for articles. Guess not.

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

Is just me or @dailydotdev became bloated, i can't understand a thing.

Bars, notifications, paid ads, paid spots, navigations everywhere

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

LinkedIn thought leaders when they realize they can coordinate posts instead of posting ‘Grateful for the journey 🙏’ for the 400th time

[Ted | unfair.so @notmiramurati]

X calls them shitposters
LinkedIn calls them thought leaders
we call them creators

LinkedIn is now on unfair!! (early beta)
join as a creator: https://t.co/JQHE9eRlaH

[Alex Cloudstar @alexcloudstar]

@notmiramurati X shitposters, LinkedIn thought leaders, unfair creators. LinkedIn on unfair is a smart move.
