San Francisco, what are you automating?

Join us Sep 15, 6:00 to 8:00 PM at Dogpatch Hub for AI Automation Show-and-Tell.

Bring an automation built with any tool. A recurring monthly space for agent builders to share and learn together. Food and drinks are provided!

Your AI agent should not clock out when you close your laptop.

Local agents can stop when your device sleeps, loses connection, or goes offline.

Okou runs in the cloud, so scheduled tasks continue securely in the background, whether your laptop is open or not.

[Okou @okou_ai]

Your heaviest AI user should not pay the same as someone who runs one job a month.

Okou Pro and Team now separate the workspace plan from each member's usage package.

Packages: $20 to $200 per member.
Concurrency: Pro starts with 2 agents at once, Team with 10.

Give the heavy users the capacity. Keep the light seats light.

BREAKING NEWS: SF and LA Tech Week calendars are LIVE!

You can now register for events: https://t.co/IElfyON9rg

2,300+ event submissions across San Francisco and Los Angeles

📍SF: October 5-11
📍LA: October 12-18

People always ask about the data, so a few stats:
-SF once again takes the crown for “biggest tech week ever” with 1,500+ events
-1 in 7 SF events is about agentic AI: 213 events in SF and 53 in LA are explicitly about agents (in the title or description). In 2024 there were only about a dozen!
-There are 124 hackathons across the two weeks, and the variety is huge: everything from hardware to defense, media/creative, fintech, civic/social good, etc. Everyone is a builder now.
- LA, the OG Tech Week (now in its fifth year!), has seriously doubled down on deep tech with 100+ events and lots of El Segundo activity.

Last year, Tech Week saw attendees from over 100 countries. It’s going to be a party.

See you there! 🥳

Zero is taking a well-earned break. Say hello to Okou. 🌼

Okou is an AI employee for the whole team. Give it a job, not a prompt—and get finished work, not just an answer.

More done. Same team.

"AI saves you time" is a promise nobody can cash.

Save it how? On what? By when?

Here's the version you can actually cash: an AI teammate that hands you the finished thing, the report written, the deck built, the research done.

Not advice on how to do it faster. The done thing.

That's the whole difference, and it's the one worth paying for.

[Okou @okou_ai]

The part that matters: it's not a one-off answer. It's a standing job that runs on schedule and hands you the finished thing.

Set it once. Read it with your coffee. What would you put on yours?

A Monday market brief used to eat someone's first hour, every single week.

Now it writes itself before you're even online. Here's the setup.

[Okou @okou_ai]

Zero pulls the prices, moves and earnings you care about from built-in market data, no API key, nothing to connect.

You tell it once what to track and when. It drops the finished brief in Slack every Monday morning.

630 PRs merged in a week. Six engineers, and agents writing most of the implementation.

@e7h4nz and the team wrote up the engineering best practices that carry the quality load when line-by-line review no longer can.
