I've been on the team building Grapevine since the beginning, and in the span of a few months our internal company GPT grew from a hacky experimental demo into my most-used work AI tool.

[Phillip Wang @flippnflops]

I’m excited today to share Grapevine, a system that makes it really easy for AI agents to search company knowledge across, Slack, Notion, codebase, and more. The first app we’re launching with it is a company GPT that works remarkably well, better than any alternative today.

Introducing Claude Haiku 4.5: our latest small model.

Five months ago, Claude Sonnet 4 was state-of-the-art. Today, Haiku 4.5 matches its coding performance at one-third the cost and more than twice the speed.

we’ve been using a grapevine-powered slackbot internally and i really can't imagine working without it. it’s like chatgpt, but with all your company knowledge and it's multi-player.

- support asks how something works → it offers an easy-to-understand answer based on the actual code, not an outdated spec.

- marketing asks when something is shipping → it pulls the launch date and the most recent project update straight from linear.

- product asks about sentiment about a feature in beta → it summarizes real customer quotes from our customer channels and survey responses.

- eng asks why we've made a particular technical choice → it combines code and our notion design docs to explain the what and the why.

it can even auto-answer if it’s confident enough (no tagging required). and since this all happens in slack, everyone can learn or chime in, making the answers better over time.

i truly didn't realize how much time i spent spend routing and answering questions until i stopped having to do it. grapevine takes 30 mins to set up and the first month is on us. give it a shot! 👇🏽

Update: I joined @gather_town to lead an AI experiments team, and today we're releasing our first tool: Grapevine

Grapevine is the first AI Brain that actually understands how you work

We've been testing across early beta customers, and its been magical to see the early impact

[Victor Zhou @victorczhou]

Anyways, first month's on us (no credit card needed) if you want to try it. Takes < 30min to setup:

There's still a lot for us to improve in Grapevine, but to this day it remains the most useful company-context-aware Q&A system I've tried, and I've tried a lot of them (and am doing my best to be as unbiased as possible).

Remote work doesn’t have to be mysterious

[Jinen Kamdar @jinen]

in terms of what's next: i'm so excited to share that i'm joining @gather_town as CPO!

i've been so inspired by the wildly creative vision that @flippnflops and team are working toward to make hanging & working online more human and more fun. see you in the metaverse! 🥳

React 18 is out! We've already seen some perf improvements from this at @gather_town, big props to the React team for this release 🎉

[React @reactjs]

React 18 is now available on npm!

Here’s an overview of what’s new in React 18, and what it means for the future.

@SultonovFurkat thanks for the feedback! yeah a search bar would be cool, i’ve wanted to do that for a while but haven’t had the time. one of these days...

@deliberatecoder @GraphQL did you feel the same way when you were learning REST?
