Let’s go!

[Brad Menezes @bradmenezes]

Today we’re partnering with AWS to launch Superblocks 3.0: the secure way for employees to vibe code production enterprise software.

In a single prompt, Superblocks can replace million dollar SaaS, while IT & Security stay in control.

OpenAI and Anthropic are releasing new models with advanced cyber attack capability and vibe coding is every company's achilles heel:

> Personal Replit accounts store untracked customer data.
> Lovable prototypes with your data open to the public internet.
> Claude on the desktop pulls malicious packages.

How Superblocks 3.0 works:

1. Superblocks Builds: Import vibe coded prototypes. Model routing picks the best frontier or open source model per task. Saves up to 30% on token costs.

2. Superblocks Secures: A swarm of security agents work like a real human team to find and fix vulnerabilities.

3. Superblocks Deploys: Unlike consumer vibe coding tools that send your data to their cloud, Superblocks deploys the application, database, and AI inference securely inside your private AWS environment.

Superblocks 3.0 is trusted across enterprises like Instacart, Benchling, and even banks and social networks with the most stringent security requirements.

Everyone says, “AI is replacing SaaS”, yet find me a Fortune 500 company that has vibe coded its own CRM instead of using Salesforce.

That changes today.

To celebrate our launch, we're building 1,000 enterprise apps for free.

Comment a SaaS tool you hate and why, and we'll reply with an enterprise-grade replacement.

[Brad Menezes @bradmenezes]

With all the Claude prototypes stuck on desktops, App Imports in Superblocks has become a huge unlock for customers rolling out Claude across their organizations.

And with all the security incidents and supply chain attacks happening across the industry, this gives enterprises a clear on-ramp to an in-VPC, secure vibe coding platform and to migrate off consumer tools like Replit and Lovable.

We are seeing customers migrate 100s of apps within a few days!

Announcing Superblocks on Snowflake: Secure Enterprise Vibe Coding on the AI Data Cloud

This couldn't be more timely.

Vibe coding is exploding inside the enterprise.

It’s also becoming the fastest path to a data breach.

Every CEO is trying to accelerate adoption of vibe coding for business users automate, without blocking on engineering.

Every VP of Data and CIO is trying to figure out how to lock down their data, harden their permissions, and gain centralized visibility.

That’s exactly what this partnership unlocks.

Superblocks becomes the enterprise platform for governed vibe coding across business teams, deeply embedded within Snowflake:

> Snowflake Postgres becomes your secure vibe coding database. Superblocks spins it up in every app for fast writes and net new operational workflow data

>Snowflake Cortex becomes the inference engine for Superblocks. Your prompts and vibe coded AI features run within your trusted security perimeter

>Snowflake Warehouse governance is enforced. AI apps use federated token passthrough so your existing row level access policies, dynamic data masking, tag-based-access controls are respected

“With Superblocks on Snowflake, any business team can safely build AI applications governed on their Snowflake data. It’s a dream come true.” -Unmesh Jagtap, Director of Product, Snowflake

Now enterprises can stop playing whack-a-mole, and move your organization past the AI prototype graveyard.

If you’re a Snowflake customer, book a demo (link in comments)

Thanks to the Snowflake team for the partnership: Christian Kleinerman, @vivek7ue, Bala Kasiviswanathan, Unmesh Jagtap, and Myles Borins for helping shape how the industry democratizes governed AI app development while centralizing control on the AI Data Cloud.

@bradmenezes you'd be crazy to use any other platform to build secure internal apps for the enterprise!

[Brad Menezes @bradmenezes]

Introducing Superblocks 2.0: AI-generated enterprise apps – finally under IT control.

Vibe-coded apps just became the #1 attack vector in the enterprise.

Business teams are building on production data, while IT has zero visibility.

No reviews. No audits. No permissions. No control.

AI hackers are about to get 100x better. Anthropic proved it with Mythos.

Superblocks 2.0 is the only platform to take back control:

> Business teams build AI-powered apps with permissions baked in.
> IT and Security can audit everything and lock down anything, instantly.
> Engineering sets the standards. Every app follows them.

Instacart, SoFi, and LinkedIn run Superblocks in production today.

And larger organizations we can't yet name are too:

A Fortune 500 just shut down 2,500 Replit users to standardize on Superblocks, running the platform air-gapped in their AWS environment.

A 150,000-employee global services firm replaced Lovable with Superblocks to unlock AI-built apps on restricted internal systems.

Every IT leader we’ve demoed to using Replit, Lovable or v0 asked for early access.

Today we open access to the world.

The genie is out of the bottle on employee vibe coding.

Let it run wild, or take back control – https://t.co/8TEolq14Z5

The enterprise software reckoning is here.

For decades, companies have shaped their workflows to meet what rigid SaaS providers offered.

Matthews real estate decided they were done with that.

Matthews took control of their destiny using enterprise AI vibe coding across business teams to deliver tailored LLM-based solutions to automate work across departments on @awscloud.

But here's what made it actually work at scale: governance.

Every prosumer AI vibe coding tool they tried fell short the moment security entered the conversation. They couldn't get inside the VPC. They couldn't inherit existing policies. They couldn't give the organization a grip on who was building what.

Superblocks and Clark AI was the unlock, democratizing development and centralizing control.

"If you're not already looking at Superblocks, you are so far behind the curve." – Ryan Casey, VP Product & Innovation at Matthews.

In every industry, the companies that thrive in an AI world will reinvent how work is done by empowering the builders across their organization, while eliminating shadow AI from the picture entirely.

Today is a BIG day!
I’m thrilled to announce a strategic partnership between @databricks and @superblocks that debuted live this morning during the #DataAISummit keynote! This marks a major leap forward in how enterprises usher in an era of secure “enterprise vibe coding” to unlock 100s of mission-critical internal data and AI applications. 🤝

As every enterprise races to operationalize their private data with AI, this partnership creates a powerful new enterprise application stack: Databricks as the Data & AI foundation, and Superblocks as the secure app development layer.

Now Data, IT and Engineering teams can build production-grade internal data and AI apps faster than ever—governed, integrated, and enterprise-ready from day one.

“Our customers have invested in building a data and AI foundation in Databricks, and are increasingly turning to applications to help democratize those investments across their organization. With Superblocks, they’re able to accelerate the development of these data and AI applications, without sacrificing security and governance.” – Shanku Niyogi, Vice President of Product Management at Databricks

Together, we’re democratizing the creation of mission-critical internal apps across the enterprise. The promise of AI isn’t just greater efficiency — it’s 100x more output. This partnership will unleash a wave of new internal applications, finally enabling enterprises to replace manual workflows with purpose-built, secure apps.

Here’s how it works:
🔗 Connect seamlessly to Databricks SQL, Mosaic AI, Lakebase, @neondatabase, and enforce permissions from Unity Catalog
✨ Generate full-stack apps instantly from natural language using Clark
🖌️ Refine visually in the Superblocks Visual Editor using drag-and-drop UI components
💻 Extend infinitely with code in your preferred IDE (e.g. @cursor_ai, @windsurf_ai, @code) using clean, traceable React that dynamically syncs with your app
🔒 Deploy to Databricks Apps security perimeter setting model and data access controls and end-user RBAC

It’s been incredible to watch @alighodsi and the Databricks team build a true Data Intelligence Platform for the enterprise over the last decade. Today, we’re proud to stand alongside them to shape the future of secure enterprise app development — powered by AI.

I’m excited to introduce Clark, the first AI Agent to build internal enterprise apps.

We’ve raised $60M, including a fresh $23M from @sparkcapital @kleinerperkins, @MeritechCapital and Greenoaks.

Unlike consumer vibe coding tools like Lovable, Replit and Bolt that only generate prototypes, Clark builds production-ready internal apps — enforcing your enterprise standards:

🧩 UIs generated using your design system
🔌 Integrations with private APIs, databases and SaaS apps
🔐 Permissions mapped to @okta & @azuread groups
🛡️ Security with audit logging, secrets management, and vulnerability scans

Clark is designed to operate exactly like a human internal tools team. It's built on a state-of-the-art multi-agent architecture, emulating your Designer, IT admin, Engineer, Security Operations, and QA employees.

When Clark generates an application, you can modify it in 3 ways:

1. Natural language - talk to Clark
2. Visual – Edit it like in Figma
3. Code – Use your IDE like Cursor or VSCode

Global enterprises in regulated industries like @Instacart (CART), @carrier (CARR), and @cvent (Blackstone) already run their mission-critical apps on our platform.

Our customers save $5m on average. Book a demo and we'll save you $5m too. And we're so confident that if we can't, we'll donate $5,000 to a charity of your choice:

As part of this launch, we’re giving away the system prompts of leading AI products like Cursor, Manus, and Codex.

These 6,000 line system prompts have enabled them to become billion-dollar companies on top of foundation models.

Retweet this post and comment ‘Superblocks’ below, and we'll send you the link so you can engineer world class prompts yourself.

First attempt at a video sequence creation with AI

[Bill Ackman @BillAckman]

The presidents of @Harvard, @MIT, and @Penn were all asked the following question under oath at today’s congressional hearing on antisemitism:

Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate [your university’s] code of conduct or rules regarding bullying or harassment?

The answers they gave reflect the profound moral bankruptcy of Presidents Gay, Magill and Kornbluth.

Representative @EliseStefanik was so shocked with the answers that she asked each of them the same question over and over again, and they gave the same answers over and over again.

In short, they said:

It ‘depends on the context’ and ‘whether the speech turns into conduct,’ that is, actually killing Jews.

This could be the most extraordinary testimony ever elicited in the Congress, certainly on the topic of genocide, which to remind us all is:

“the deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular nation or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group”

The presidents’ answers reflect the profound educational, moral and ethical failures that pervade certain of our elite educational institutions due in large part to their failed leadership.

Don’t take my word for it.

You must watch the following three minutes. By the end, you will be where I am.

They must all resign in disgrace.

If a CEO of one of our companies gave a similar answer, he or she would be toast within the hour.

Why has antisemitism exploded on campus and around the world?

Because of leaders like Presidents Gay, Magill and Kornbluth who believe genocide depends on the context.

To think that these are the leaders of Ivy League institutions that are charged with the responsibility to educate our best and brightest.

On the bright side, our congressional leaders deserve accolades for showing tremendous leadership and moral clarity in their statements, by the questions they asked, and the respectfulness with which they conducted the hearing.

It was a masterclass of how our government and democracy should operate.

If you have time, please watch the entire hearing. Throughout the hearing, the three behaved like hostile witnesses, exhibiting a profound disdain for the Congress with their smiles and smirks, and their outright refusal to answer basic questions with a yes or no answer.

[Jotam Confino @mrconfino]

I just saw indescribable, raw footage of Hamas’ massacre along with 100 other international journalists, provided by Israeli authorities. Here are the notes I took: 

1: Hamas terrorist screaming Allah Akhbah as he frantically tries to behead a dead man with a shovel.

[Lia Cromwell @lmcromwell]

Anyone still denying that anti-zionism = antisemitism, please explain why are all of these protests globally are attacking synagogues and Jewish-owned businesses?

[Michael Eisenberg @mikeeisenberg]

This is important. PLS SHARE. Map of all failed rocket launches where Hamas and their evil twin Islamic Jihad kill their own citizens, including at the hospital yesterday.

AND a link to a recorded phone conversation between a Hamas operative and Jihad operative confirming they fired it but also sickly explaining how their rocket launchers are in the cemetery next to another hospital!!!!

https://t.co/xbKeDPM7qP

[Michael Eisenberg @mikeeisenberg]

I am calling for the resignation of Joseph Kahn, editor in chief of the @nytimes

His slander has put people’s lives in danger. Same for all other fake reports. See this tweet and the video of people trying to kill Jews because of false reporting.

[Hen Mazzig @HenMazzig]

If you called out Israel for the Gaza hospital bombing, I want you to use the same energy to call out Palestinian Islamic Jihad for being the ones who misfired a rocket at that hospital.

Or was it not really about Palestinian civilians?

[Eylon Levy @EylonALevy]

Last night, an Islamic Jihad rocket fired from a cemetery behind a hospital in Gaza misfired—and hit the Al Ahli Hospital, killing innocent Palestinian civilians.

Want the evidence? Buckle up for a thread.

Run it by an OSINT expert if you don't believe me.⬇️

[Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian @manniefabian]

IDF releases a recording of an intercepted phone call between two Hamas operatives who discuss the failed Islamic Jihad rocket that landed on the Gaza hospital.

[Artiom Dashinsky @hvost]

My FB feed is my friends posting about their friends and families’ funerals.

My X feed is people in the US/Europe explaining why it was okay to massacre them.

My IG is the “social justice fighters” in London, NYC, Sydney chanting “Gas the Jews” etc.

What a time to be alive.
