I'm excited to share that I've joined Parallel Web Systems (@p0) to lead Strategic Partnerships.
The web now has its second user: AI agents that consume vast amounts of information at a pace humans never could. This shift requires entirely new infrastructure purpose-built for machine intelligence.
Parallel has built the world's best web search for AI, outperforming all leading models on research benchmarks. With Parallel's APIs, agents get access to the fastest growing web index to power real-time user queries, deep research, lead enrichment, and other mission-critical workflows.
Looking forward to building the next chapter of the web alongside @travers00, @paraga, and the rest of the incredibly talented team at Parallel!
Awesome collaborating with the Parallel (@p0) team to offer better web search for free out of the box in Centaur, our open source AI agent for Slack!
In addition to free web search, Centaur can also use Parallel for deep research in Slack!

Cool release from @p0. I think this use-case (agents paying content creators for access via @mpp) will be very big. Micropayment walls haven't worked (as Clay Shirky anticipated many years ago) because of human cognitive overhead, but agents can make arbitrarily granular determinations without decision fatigue.
Content owners can finally charge agents for accessing their site.
Congrats Parallel on launching Index with such great partners! (All the micro money parts built using @mpp via @stripe.)
Any tool-calling model on OpenRouter can call web search and web fetch agentically.
The model decides when to search, what to search for, and how many times.
We've added @p0 as a new web search provider. Learn more: https://t.co/dDKZ24VcqN
Parallel's mission is to keep the web open as AI agents become its primary user.
The business model underpinning the human web is attention-based, which breaks as agents become the audience.
Today we're launching Index, a platform where content owners can see how AI agents use their work and earn compensation tied to their actual contribution.
If AI agents are going to use the web far more than humans ever have, the economics should grow with them.
Come work with me at Parallel!
We're expanding the partnerships team for someone to own our developer growth strategy across agent frameworks, open source tools, and agentic commerce.

See us this Wednesday and Thursday at @LangChain Interrupt!
@nickmartitsch, Alex Laubscher, and Charles Martin from our team will be on-site to showcase Parallel's suite of web research APIs and discuss building agents with Parallel and LangChain.
Excited to deeply partner with our friends at @LangChain!
Company due diligence that used to take analysts days now runs in minutes. Deep Agents orchestrates the research, @p0 powers the web intelligence.
Built for PE deal screening, credit underwriting, KYB, vendor risk, and other finance workflows
.@p0's API suite is now supported in LangChain, and they wrote a cookbook for a due diligence agent.
We're part of the recipe:
• Deep Agents for orchestrating dedicated research track subagents
• @p0’s Task API for research, findings, confidence scores, and follow-ups

Today, we’re announcing the general availability of the Parallel Monitor API.
The web is shifting from pull to push, and agents are coming online. This release marks a major step towards a more proactive model, where the web pushes updates directly to your background agent.
Monitor now includes:
- Lite and Base processors
- Event streams and snapshots
- Rich attribution (Basis) on every event
- Advanced domain filtering
- Interactions for persistent follow-on research
I expect a fast takeoff this year of agents autonomously purchasing Parallel's web tools.
We just published a blog about the underlying infra we built with @stripe@tempo@CoinbaseDev to make this possible
https://t.co/BQdJ6hu2eb lets agents call Parallel's Search, Extract, and Task APIs with no API key and no human authentication, paying per request with stablecoins on @tempo or x402 on Base.
Today's tech blog from @0xsunny77 walks through how we built the gateway: https://t.co/lwE5iYXnYd
It’s remarkable how fast @stripe moves to stay ahead of market shifts
Very clear from Sessions that the agent economy is the next frontier to build for!
