@toddsaunders Limited value in YC for vertical ai. You don’t need their network, and don’t want to sell into other YC companies.

Just build it and get to cash flow positive with no investors.

@JasonrShuman There should only be one agent for a customer. The same agent should get a customer onboarded through a verifiable outcome and it should be specific to their company.

Multi-agent workflows don’t make sense.

.@BiltRewards might have the worst customer service in fintech right now. The Wells Fargo → Bilt 2.0 transition has been a disaster and support is just outsourced scripts with zero solutions.

What else is out there for rent pay?

[Mike Powers @_mikepowers_]

@andruyeung Yeah - wine pairing included. It is a two star Michelin so the food and service were outstanding.

@andruyeung We spent $5k for 12 people.

@vic_muchiri I don’t want to make any decisions in a movie. Martin Scorsese is 1000x better than me

I wrote about an emerging construction platform opportunity - how a "Model Context Layer" could become the App Store for construction robotics by solving the fragmentation crisis where every robot speaks a different language.

@tooeyprocore 1-click RFQs.

Take unstructured construction docs, structure them into MEP equipment packages, create custom scope sheets based on the project context, automatically route to the correct manufacturers, and level out the proposal to make apples-to-apples comparisons.
