@falconer_ai @mercury @capitaltruist context is the bottleneck. falconer is the unblock

@mercury builds the best banking products for entrepreneurs. They also celebrate the entrepreneurs building those companies.

They interviewed @capitaltruist, about the vision and the messy challenges behind building @falconer_ai.

I co-founded and then left a 7-figure consultancy because it felt like painting the Golden Gate Bridge over and over.

When a unicorn client wanted to pay us a hefty sum to clean up their Notion workspace, I said no. "I can do it, but it'll quickly turn to shit again."

Their response: "I don't care. It's a trash fire."

This was the catalyst for starting Falconer. I talked to about 100 engineering managers, tech leads, and founders about their internal docs. They were customers of Notion, Glean, and Confluence. The top complaints were related to document lifecycle management. "What's the source of truth? How does a document get updated? How can I find it quickly?"

The vision for Falconer needed to be fundamentally different, not just a beautiful Confluence. It all came down to accuracy and curation.

Notion is the everything app. Glean helps you search everything. Confluence is...well I'm not sure what Confluence is for.

Falconer is the accuracy app, obsessed with knowledge quality and curation. The app that lets you find the right thing, not just return everything.

Falconer is:

1. A knowledge graph built for accuracy
2. An AI-native library that curates your knowledge for you
3. A context monitoring and observability tool

None of our tools, UX, or aspirations mattered until we showed results.

Customer love has shown up in our Slack Connect channels and internal usage dashboards, but we needed public numbers to prove it. It's validating to share the winning results of our unique approach and architecture. And there's still so much more to come.

the team can say RTFM because Falcon's already captured the answer. the manual stays alive whether anyone remembers to update it or not.

@falconer_ai 😎

[Dave Nunez @capitaltruist]

Most people probably don't enjoy being told RTFM, but I swell with pride whenever my team does it to me.

[apoooorva @apoorvaShityeah]

@falconer_ai just what i needed for the fifa season 😆

[apoooorva @apoorvaShityeah]

this is so well phrased. how you build human capital at your enterprise is what will set you apart in the age of AI. context is key when everything else is so volatile.

incredibly proud of what we’re building at @falconer_ai helping companies multiply their human capital and capture context

i had planned to try fun things using Fable 5 over the weekend. my fault? i saved it for the weekend.

your reminder to live life today

Everything you'd want in a markdown editor and more.

Built to scale. AI-native. Context aware.

- Multiplayer comments: synced and resolvable
- Author states: edit, suggestion + view modes
- Edit history: diff and roll back
- Multi-edits

@payabli has built some of the best product docs in the world.

Their customers see it every day. Internally, they wanted to build the best writing culture, too. Knowledge was spread across Confluence, Google Drive, and Slack. Finding an answer often meant pulling an engineer out of their work.

Their move from Confluence to Falconer took just two days.

The impact showed up in new behavior. Teams that never had time for documentation — HR, finance, marketing — started writing more things down. And engineers now rely on Falconer instead of getting trapped in endless Slack threads.

Agent loops are the topic of the week, and I guess it's time to cut through the fog.
I broke it down for @falconer_ai:

[Aryaman Agrawal @AryamanAgrawal5]

@trq212 inspired us to do something kinda insane.

We took Claude's ability to write HTML and applied it to docs. Have your docs ever looked so cool?

writing a self-review usually eats a whole weekend. this time mine took ~15 minutes.

and it came out more thorough than anything i'd have written from memory.

@falconer_ai pulled from six months of changelogs, PRs, and incident reports, so nothing got left out. i was confident every contribution made it in, even the wins i'd forgotten i shipped. all of it cited.

[apoooorva @apoorvaShityeah]

not a good day to be aapl🫪

[Falconer @falconer_ai]

Onboarding a new engineer can take weeks of explaining how the codebase works. And when a senior engineer leaves, that context walks out the door.

Falconer Generate fixes the handoff, and it doesn't take a documentation sprint.

Point Falconer at any repo and get an initial doc set back in minutes: project overview, get started, architecture overview, contributing guide, and glossary.

Falconer also answers questions about the codebase directly, so new hires ramp from the docs instead of your staff engineer's calendar.

i found a substack called sentimental being (@yearlyblues is it you???) and it’s gently been undoing something in me. only 8 posts but i keep coming back to them like a favourite blanket. it’s the kind of writing that wraps around you and makes you feel less alone in your own head. whoever you are behind these words, you’ve reached me, truly. thank you.

[Aryaman Agrawal @AryamanAgrawal5]

By now we've realized that Plan Mode gives us more reliable results with Claude and other coding agents.

But iteration on raw .md files is hard when you don't have an editor.

Being able to collaborate with agents and humans in the same space is the real unlock!!!

[apoooorva @apoorvaShityeah]

@falconer_ai i let a falconer skill prep my standup updates and now i show up sounding so on top of it that even i'm impressed. do i remember doing the work? no. does Falconer? yes.

[apoooorva @apoorvaShityeah]

@meoww739 no, looking at the quantity of ramen, i think you need double of what you’ve added rn
