Every knowledge base meets the same fate. The person keeping it updated eventually stops.
How we’re building shared team memory that grows out of the work your team is already doing: https://t.co/OdWGknpkVQ
“I actually don’t think AI should be writing your PRDs.”
That and a few other strong opinions from our Head of Engineering @parrissays on Terminal Value: https://t.co/eLIcRQYPAB 👀🎙️
AI meeting transcription and notes aren’t the finish line.
More value comes from turning conversation into explicit decisions, owners, deadlines, and actions in the systems where teams work.
How Highlight tackles the busywork surrounding meetings and keeps teams aligned:

Was it an execution failure or an alignment failure?
A meeting can end with everyone nodding and still produce three completely different plans.
Researchers have called this the “illusion of alignment.”
In a small study of 18 meetings, their system surfaced an average of 2.89 hidden disagreements per meeting.
Something to remember as AI notetakers become standard: an accurate transcript can still document an ambiguous agreement.
Highlight happy hour, but instead of beer it’s an 820,000 Scoville unit hot sauce.
No employees were harmed in the making of this (though some were definitely changed). Shout out @firstwefeast 🌶️
AI can plausibly get you to 100x productivity, but it’s just as important to talk about what that costs downstream:
100x more review
100x more routing
100x more rebuilding
We learned this ourselves. More suggested actions just meant more decisions to make. We’ve recalibrated to pull back and thoughtfully deploy actions, giving people room for meaningful work without adding to the coordination burden.
Built a milky way audio visualizer in #threejs for the screens around the office while we prep for open beta. Just piling in as much lighting as possible now with webgpu 😂
We’re going heads down this week, splitting into small pods to focus on the parts of Highlight that haven’t met our bar.
If there’s something you’d want from an AI tool dedicated to taking busywork off your plate, send it our way 👇
We’re listening while we build.
