We think that email is fundamentally broken, and for most people AI is making things worse, not better.

Do you agree? If so I’d love to set up a quick user research call with you soon to learn what you wish someone could fix...

Great summary of how to build a "self-improving company" from @t_blom. Some companies will be able to use this advice to figure this out for themselves. But if you're not sure where to start @housecatinc is the AI operating system for small teams. Please reach out!

[Y Combinator @ycombinator]

In a recent batch talk, YC General Partner @t_blom broke down how to build a self-improving, AI-native company.

He walks through how to create recursive, self-improving AI loops, and why founders who get this right will run companies that improve while they sleep.

@CharleyMa I should have mandated shorts for breakfast yesterday!!

[Thomas George @thomas_ag]

@Trace_Cohen @claudeai @ClaudeDevs I think you're out of tokens...

[Thomas George @thomas_ag]

Please reach out if this sounds interesting. I'd love to help you and your team get started on our tool, or help you think through any other challenges your trying to solve.

We’re excited to announce the launch of the Housecat Beta! @housecatinc is the AI operating system for small teams. We build the building blocks that make AI agents actually useful (so you don’t have to).

It's clear that the future is a computer for every agent. While the initial wave has been Mac Mini / OpenClaw etc, running tools in the Cloud makes much more sense. Housecat makes it all easy and gives every user a dedicated cloud VM with its own agent.

@dadiomov that has always been my struggle to understand the stablecoin + agents narrative too

if a hotel can charge my card for minibar snacks without me or the card present surely my agent can do the same....?

[Thomas George @thomas_ag]

@brexton Agreed! Would love to chat about this, we've been thinking about this too

[Thomas George @thomas_ag]

I couldn't agree more. Vibecoding makes it easier than ever to get to 80% but the last 20% is as hard as ever (maybe harder). When I buy software I am paying for a 99% solution (and maybe even a 99.99% solution).

@0xjgv DM me and I can send you a sign up link!

[Thomas George @thomas_ag]

Yesterday's @ycombinator post from @t_blom (who I used to work for at @monzo) about the "company brain" didn't surprise me. We started @housecatinc last year, and are seeing something magical happen when you give agents access to your data and a computer they control.

[Thomas George @thomas_ag]

@iamPWK Small is good! We're building with small teams in mind

[Thomas George @thomas_ag]

If you're interested in testing the product let me know!

[Thomas George @thomas_ag]

When combined you start seeing glimpses of the future. Housecat is able to read your emails, slack and granola and create clear tasks for the user. It can keep your CRM automatically up-to-date, or help you plan events and outreach. Or you can build custom projects on the fly.
