Who did it better?

[Ole Lehmann @itsolelehmann]

i can't believe they're really gonna do it again

the last time stripe shipped a primitive this big, it literally birthed modern saas.

shopify, substack, gumroad, all your fav indie hackers...

they exist only because stripe's payments api let them easily accept money with a few lines of code

yesterday stripe shipped the spending version.

anyone can now get an agent to spend money on their behalf.

if stripe's payments api created saas, this spending api creates autonomous commerce:

a new category of businesses that run on agents buying, booking, restocking, and paying on your behalf

to make that concrete for you, here's some cool ideas you can build now:

1. ai ad managers. you connect your meta, google, and tiktok accounts, set a monthly budget cap, and an agent runs your entire paid strategy.

2. ai procurement agents for ecommerce. they monitor supplier prices, auto-order when costs hit your threshold, send you a morning summary of what they bought and why

3. ai travel agents that actually work. they search, compare, book, and pay within your budget rules. no more toggling between 6 tabs to save $40 on a flight

4. ai bookkeeping agents. they handle the recurring operational payments your business already makes every month (contractor invoices, ad account top-ups, subscriptions, etc)

the 18-month window after a new primitive ships is historically when the category-defining companies get built

if i was building right now i'd pick one of these, find the narrowest possible version of it, and ship before it closes

generational opportunities here imo. good luck!

Every school needs a ballroom.

[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

I just can’t imagine wanting an entire secure ballroom for one man and not wanting gun reform for every child in America.

The U.S. and Israel just launched one of the biggest military actions of the decade — hitting more than 500 targets inside Iran. Tehran fired back.

The hardest place in politics is the one where you hold more than one truth at the same time. That’s what I tried to do here. I present both sides of six arguments, supporting and opposing the attacks.

The internet has already split in two: team “disaster” and team “finally”. In reality, the complexity of the situation is deeper than either side is letting on.

Please read my piece. Sit with anything that makes you uncomfortable. Then hit me with your take in the comments. Thanks! 🙏🏾
