.@MattJonWilson + @Jackandjillai team showing us UK founders what's possible... 🇬🇧

[Matthew Wilson @MattJonWilson]

Over 250,000 people now have Jack working exclusively for them.

A quarter of a million professionals who've chosen him as their agent for the next step in their career.

When we founded @Jackandjillai, we had one goal: make sure every professional has someone working only for them.

1,000,000 milestone next.

@garrytan @tabflows Words to remember.

We're all going to die

Who gives a fuck

24,000 people upvoted a Reddit post about job searching because it's an experience we all know.

Ghost listings. Applications into silence. Hiring managers who'd already decided.

We built @Jackandjillai around one idea: the best next role should find you.

24 hours with @buildwingman - impressive.

Voice, text and audio input on WhatsApp, one click API connection to email and calendar etc.

Can handle daily updates and perform complex online research tasks, and generate images.

Took us almost a year to do some of these things with @justccting

@fabianstelzer Great ad, but it had to be!

Google should have made this. When you talk on a call, agent hears, pulls up your schedule, offers to book for you live, all automatically. https://t.co/zB9z50eaVz

[Jimmy Lowery Jr @jimmyloweryjr]

You know that awkward moment when you're trying to coordinate a follow-up meeting?

Yeah, we fixed that.

With @SimploraAI x @justccting, scheduling now happens during the conversation.

Scheduling intent is detected → your availability appears → the meeting is booked.

It's that easy.

[dan b @dbul]

Most people talk about agent-to-agent like it’s agents endlessly messaging each other. The real magic is simpler: people just talk, agents coordinate the work.

Everyone's saying AI turns marketers into generalists. I think the opposite happens. When anyone can do anything, the only edge left is knowing something deeply: https://t.co/YizG5cJ3aa
