@dennishegstad so amped

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

@TheChrisZim This is increase over our own baseline. We've also seen similar increases over the last ESP as well

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

Identity Resolution for Postscript customers just got a whole lot better, just in time for BFCM.

The numbers are insane, and all of this is a free upgrade if you use us for SMS or Email...

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

We're incredibly excited to see this drive more revenue over the holiday period for anyone using our products

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

here's what we're seeing, as of release

+39% avg increase in identified visitors
+23% avg increase in browse abandonment flow triggers

@natelagos @ringmybeller you're not gonna love this

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

Important information that I feel people need to know

Taco bell nuggets have 26g of protein in 310 calories

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

@piersonkrass the real alpha is in TB nuggets it turns out

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

@breallstrong @Bbruhis @ringmybeller Yup, onboarding customers to it as we speak, we can get you on with our team

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

@harden_369741 that works!

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

This is exactly why we did a from scratch rewrite with AI

iterating on old world codebases with AI doesn't make sense. It increases security risks, has worse performance, etc.

Why renovate a house while you're still living in it when you can build a new one from the ground up

[Guillermo Rauch @rauchg]

We will all be learning in coming weeks & months, that most human-made software:

▫️ Was really slow
▫️ Had many security vulnerabilities
▫️ Was under-specified and incorrect

AI will rewrite it all. Many times. It will make it fast, cost-efficient, and secure. It will think about failure modes we couldn't wrap our heads around.

It will prove, formally verify, load test, harden. It will turn memory-unsafe foundations into robust, optimized ones. If you ask, it'll thoroughly document it, teach you about it, make diagrams, animations, and slide decks.

In many ways, we are witnessing the true birth of software engineering.

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

@harden_369741 But you can just point the AI at the old house and tell it to rebuild better too

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

how are people this far behind the curve?

[Uncle Bob Martin @unclebobmartin]

Great line from the CTO of Proton. I’m paraphrasing and stealing it :

Your job is not to use agents to help you write code. Your job is to lead the agents to help them write code.

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

@EmailEngineers this isn't even on revenue, it's Open / CTR

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

Postscript Email is beating Klaviyo performance on every Flow for this customer 👀

probably nothing

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

@macbohannon @mwseibel if you're not tranching gravy what are we doing here

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

In YC 2019 we tried to tranche our demo day Seed round and got rejected gloriously. @mwseibel told us we were being knuckleheads (and we were)

You can tranche, but IMO only when you feel good about what’s already committed and the rest is gravy.

Tranche the gravy all you want

[Gokul Rajaram @gokulr]

Multiple tranches have now become a feature of Seed / A / B rounds. No longer an anomaly.

Heard from a fund: "How dare <other-firm> try to put us in the second tranche! We are first tranchers!"

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

I guarantee that the recent Shopify App Store security breaches were from vulnerabilities in human written code, not AI

do not get caught with a human written codebase

[Adam @ Postscript 📱 @asturnerr]

Any "legacy" SaaS that has not rebuilt their codebase from scratch (ai-first) is going to deeply regret it in the next 6-12 months.

you cannot afford to be stuck with human debt from the last 4+ years of your existence

some SaaS are stuck with 15+ years of human debt...

@youderian @ecomfuelco Really great community you’ve built
