I'm excited to share that I've joined @AnthropicAI to lead Startup Partnerships in India!
It's super exciting to join a company whose product I use daily and genuinely love. @claudeai has become a regular part of how I think, explore ideas, solve problems and get things done.
@X@Subscriptions@Support
Hi X Support, I recently changed my username from @prashantpmx to @prashantx31. When I try to switch back to @prashantpmx, it shows as unavailable, but no account is using it. It was my handle and it's listed on an official document, so I need it back on my account. Could you please release @prashantpmx back to my account? Thank you.
i think weโre going to see a pretty radical change in how software companies are staffed over the next 3 years..
for the last 20 years, the most expensive thing in a software company was building the software. so we built entire organizations around engineering capacity.
PMs figure out what to build. designers design it. engineers build it. sales sells it. CS handles the customer.
AI is going to completely upend this..
1/ the distinction between PM and engineer will start to disappear. PMs who canโt build and engineers who donโt understand customers will both struggle.
2/ the best engineers will spend a lot more time with customers. understanding the problem, building the solution, seeing if it actually works.. without 5 layers of handoffs.
3/ the value of customer understanding will go up dramatically. not because AI canโt talk to customers, but because building 10 features is becoming easier than figuring out which 1 actually matters.
4/ distribution becomes even more important. when 100 companies can build roughly the same thing, the one that knows how to reach customers and earn their trust wins.
my bet is that the best software companies in 3 years will look very different.. far fewer handoffs, much smaller teams, and people who own problems end to end.
we spent 20 years organizing software companies around the scarcity of engineering.
that scarcity is going away.. but the org charts havenโt caught up.
Building agents for support, finance, healthcare, or sales?

6:30-9pm. RSVP
https://t.co/uZMKYuOVSC
For one night, we're bringing together the best agent builders in the Bay to talk shop.
On Nov 18, Monaco is hosting the ๐ฉ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐น ๐๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐ ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐๐๐ฝ in San Francisco. The future of agents is specialized systems for customer support, finance, healthcare, and sales, and this is for the people shipping them in production. Learn and share the practices that work. All signal, no hype.
What we'll dig into:
๐๐๐ฎ๐น๐: how to know your agent works and catch regressions before your customers do
๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐๐ฒ๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐บ๐ฒ๐บ๐ผ๐ฟ๐: tool design, context engineering, what an agent should remember and forget
๐๐ฎ๐๐ฎ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐น๐ผ๐๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐: where post-training data comes from, and what breaks when agents meet real customers
We'll have expert talks, plenty of food and drinks, and attendees from the best agent companies on the planet including @thinkymachines, @appliedcompute, @braintrust, @JudgmentLabs, and many more.

ok big drop today: very excited to announce
The Cosign Awards
2026 has been a crazy year. One thing we keep seeing: the people making the biggest impact inside top companies arenโt always the people youโd expect. The org chart no longer tells the whole story. a single, standout engineer, designer, growth leader, or operator can change the trajectory of the entire company.
If youโve worked with someone like this, you know... the rest of the world hasnโt caught up yet. We want to help change that.
Today, weโre opening nominations for the @Cosign Awards.
For the next month, weโre looking for the most impactful contributors, and rising stars across the key functions that make great companies work.
We'll aggregate nominations across 41 categories, and with help from a panel of 21 judges including @lennysan, @omooretweets, @packyM, @gokulr, @rrhoover, @dhaber, @avichal, @gaganbiyani, @amasad, @illscience, @venturetwins & more - weโll select ten people in each category, and then bring them together to meet, exchange ideas, and build relationships.
(this is the part i'm most excited about, to be honest .. gathering the winners IRL + group chats: we'll run this every year, and hope to see alumni communities of awards winners building things together, helping each-other out, and more - over time).
So, here it goes!
Who comes to mind?
