The @TryRamp top vendors list is our favorite list to be on because it's one of the few 'real' benchmarks out there. This is our second time on it. A year ago, it was @Stedi alongside a bunch of other SaaS and a few AI companies. Now, we're the first non-AI company to be on the list in 5 months.

There is still an enormous market for API-first, network-based SaaS – agents need efficient and reliable ways of connecting to the otherwise-illegible real world (in our case, we handle connectivity to 3,500+ different healthcare insurance companies for claims processing) – but building a defensible business in these categories is a huge investment of time and capital. Nine years in, we're growing faster than ever. We're hiring across many roles – engineering, design, product, GTM, legal, ops, recruiting, and more. If you're looking to be a part of something special for the long term, drop me a note.

Had a great time at @AWSEvents re:Invent talking about the @Stedi agent. We built and launched the first version in <2 weeks using Bedrock AgentCore – from talking to other founders, it seems that AgentCore is one of the best kept secrets in software (hopefully not for long).

We’re hiring a Product Manager @stedi to work on Claims and Enrollments (and some other soon-to-come products). You’ll work directly with me, our PMs, designers, and engineers and engineering managers. We ship like crazy – check out our blog and changelog in the replies – and work with hundreds and hundreds of the sharpest customers in healthcare. Each one has a dedicated Slack/Teams channel, which means we have a firehose of feedback about everything we launch (and tons of requests for the things we haven’t launched yet!).

It’s a steep ramp to build developer-focused products in revenue cycle management. At least some RCM experience is required and an engineering/CS background is strongly preferred. If this sounds like you, drop us a line (link in reply).

When I see someone taking out a wired mouse in a coffee shop it makes me smile, nostalgia?

I've finally managed to master JQ expressions, I just give ChatGPT my JSON shape and ask it to write my JQ expression.

Change Healthcare – the nation's largest clearinghouse for insurance claims and payments – has been down for 13 days and counting due to a cyberattack. It's an absolute crisis – doctors, hospitals, and other providers can't get paid. What is a clearinghouse? What is going on? 🧵

[Zack Kanter @zackkanter]

Official info on our drop-in replacements for Change Healthcare APIs. We're working around the clock with Change's customers to get them back up and running, with more coming in every hour. We're setting up a community slack channel – reach out for an invite.

It's been ZERO days since CORS ruined my day. 🙄

I'm releasing a new extension to help Amazon sellers.

If you sell on Amazon or know anyone who does - this extension is such a productive enhancer.

It adds deep links to your Seller Central account and gives you a catalog of links for quick access.

The EDI industry revolves around fees – trading partner fees, transaction fees, even 'kilocharacter' fees (really). Customers assume they're being taken advantage of, but the reality is that these fees reflect the cost structure of a typical EDI provider’s business. (1/n)

We launched 8 building blocks last year @Stedi. This launch is something very different – it's what we've been working towards for years: a platform that stitches everything together, eliminating 90% of the custom development required to build a world-class EDI system. (1/n)

More of my programming time is micro-waiting for an AI to type the crap I've typed 10 times already today. I'm ok with that.

Is there a German word for closing one applications' main window, to find the dialog box of another cowering behind it?

[Zack Kanter @zackkanter]

Hot off the Stedi engineering blog press: we benchmarked four AWS-native deployment methods in order to see how much latency overhead each method introduced. The results weren't surprising – there's plenty of room for improvement. https://t.co/KrjwHzeeRC
