you only get to say goodbye once.
the last thing a family should have to worry about while grieving is logistics.
if AI can take that weight off their shoulders and give them more time to be with the people they love, that’s technology making a real difference.
Good Place is building for a problem that matters deeply. ❤️
i asked chatgpt how to plan a funeral.
it said to call a few funeral homes and ask for price lists. makes sense when only 18% of them post prices online, it had nothing to show me.
every other industry figured out online shopping 20 years ago. this one still runs on phone calls.
so 8 in 10 families call one place and say yes to an $8k decision, sometimes from a hospital hallway.
why are we fine with that?
episode 2 of building an ai-native funeral company in public.
Today distributed cognition exits out of stealth with backing by Verdict Capital.
Our mission is to replicate humanity's collective intelligence.

Most of today's AI power is held in the hands of a few, who can choose what you're allowed to think and what you're permitted to do.
We stand on three substantially different foundational beliefs:
- You shouldn't ask permission for intelligence.
- Superintelligence will be a distributed collective.
- Humans are not meant to be relegated to a permanent underclass.
If we don't distribute intelligence, nobody will.
hiring at an early stage startup is such a pain
you spend hours on linkedin finding people, checking their github, figuring out if they're a good fit, and then trying to find a way to reach them
treg is trying to do all of that for $0.19 per candidate
kinda crazy how cheap recruiting tools are getting lol

this is sooo cool my man!!!!
never thought my silly handwritten notes would inspire anyone lol
genuinely makes me so happy seeing people take inspiration from my little growth experiments and actually try it themselves ❤️🔥
the biggest mistake in B2B sales is assuming everyone is ready to buy.
most of your ICP isn't even looking for a solution right now.
your job isn't to convince them to buy today.
it's to make sure you're the first person they think of when they finally need one.
depends on the scale tbh.
if you're handling a few hundred conversations, building it in-house makes sense.
but at thousands of conversations, you're not just analyzing transcripts. you're building systems to track failures, spot patterns, set up alerts, and measure improvements over time.
that's a lot of engineering time spent rebuilding something you can get off the shelf
your AI voice agent could be losing customers while your dashboard says everything is working fine.
calls completed ≠ successful conversations.
are customers repeating themselves? is your agent misunderstanding them? are people hanging up frustrated?
made a quick video explaining how to catch these problems before they hurt your product.
give it a watch :)
@shriniket73@priyanchew haha fair question!
you can absolutely run transcripts through an LLM.
the hard part is doing it across thousands of conversations, finding patterns, tracking how things change over time, and knowing exactly which failures need fixing.
that's what we make easy :)

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!
