🚀Launching CoAgents Public Beta 🪁:

Everything you need to build Agent-Native applications, powered by LangGraph & CopilotKit.

CoAgents enables in-app agents with:
- Agenetic generative UI ✨
- Shared state (between agent <-> application)
- Streaming intermediate agent state
- Human-in-the-Loop (Human approval & planning) 👨‍🦰
- Frontend Actions 💪

---
We’ve recently seen the emergence of Agent-Native applications that actually work: powered by vertical AI agents + agentic UX + deep in-app integration.

(Apps like the Replit AI Agent, OpenAI Canvas, etc, but for any domain)

With CoAgents + LangGraph, you can build this next generation of agent apps, for any vertical, with a clean and easy to use infrastructure (in hours).

I’ve secretly 🤫 been using a new product every week that is now live for everyone.

Today we are launching Reforge Artifacts and it’s completely free 🆓. Take a look 👇

Artifacts let you access the real work from those who have done it before, so you’ll never have to start from scratch. Some examples:

👆 Product Review Systems from Casey Winters, Tom Willerer, and others

🧠 Product Strategy and Roadmaps from Adam Fishman and Sachin Rekhi

🪜 Career Leveling Guides from Julie Zhou, Barron Ernst, and Kevan Lee

🧪 Growth + Product Experiments from Lauryn Isford, Matt Woods, and Ben Williams

📈 Quantitative analyses from John Egan, Dan Wolchonok, and Yousuf Bhaijee

🧐 User research projects from Amber Rucker, Mike Fiorillo, Shelly Eisen-Livneh

And sooooo many more.

You can sign up here → https://t.co/zcearP8HBR

Preview some artifacts here → https://t.co/VJpV8Q3HoT

These are NOT blank templates. Artifacts are the real work that contain the substance, nuance, insights, and realness.

Here are a few things you can do with Artifacts:

🔎 Find artifacts relevant to what you are working on
💡 Access notes from the creator about the story, lessons, and insights
⭐️ Save artifacts and share them with colleagues
🔁 Remix artifacts to create your own version

Artifacts is such a simple but powerful idea I can’t believe we didn’t think of it before. I’ve wasted so much time recreating something thousands of others have already done.

Artifacts can help accelerate a lot of work (like open-source code) by enabling building on each other.

Would love to know what you think.

The best thing you can do to reduce customer churn is focus on retaining the _right_ people.

@natatouille @elylerner and I turned this happy hour "hot take" into a post for @Reforge featuring wisdom from @fishmanaf @dariusmc and @smalkana.

[Reforge @reforge]

Without a well-defined framework, many #productleaders struggle with balancing product bets and driving meaningful impact on the top-level business metric.

@elylerner recommends thinking about your #productstrategy in terms of offense and defense. 🏈

https://t.co/x0Q9jtBFbN

[Lacey Butler @frecklefacelace]

🏈 Offense &amp; defense plays aren’t just for sports — the concept can be applied to marketing, product dev, personal investments, et al. ✨

As always @reforge delivers a 💯 breakdown of the what, why, when, and how of applying this concept to growth 👇

https://t.co/14QRidjHku

[Reforge @reforge]

Sad truth: Too many organizations focus on things that aren’t contributing to growth.

The secret to better outcomes is identifying what’s offense, what’s defense, and — most importantly — what’s neither.
