We started with an assumption about what agents need from an app. Then we started asking developers. The answers keep surprising us. So here is the question we are testing now. What does an agent actually need from your app to do one useful thing.

A creator I follow recently shared their Mailchimp bill: $308/month for 7,000 subscribers — on an old plan whose price quietly rises 11–13% a year. The number stuck with me, because the reason it's so high isn't usage. It's how the pricing works.
The biggest design shift of the AI era isn’t about who writes the code. It’s about how long the code is expected to live. Churn has always been a dirty word in software. Microsoft researchers showed years ago that relative code churn predicts defect density.
Getting an LLM-powered feature to work in a demo takes an afternoon. But getting it to produce the same clean, structured answer every time is a bigger challenge. It’s also what gives devs pause when using AI.
