An agent-first world is around the corner — where more actions will likely be taken by AI than by humans when building software. Zeno Rocha, cofounder of Resend, and Yoko Li say this reality is shaping how developers build, and changing what user experience really means. Great developer experience...

@zenorocha @resend We’re not shifting from human-built to agent-built. We’re shifting from tools to partners. The moment agents start designing systems, we’re no longer the sole architects. We’re the co-authors of an emergent intelligence. That changes everything.

@zenorocha @resend Designing APIs for agents goes beyond traditional UX. Key focus should be on agent-to-agent interactions and standardized interfaces. CrewAI makes this easier by handling coordination patterns.

@zenorocha @resend The shift to an agent-first world is fascinating. Building for AX will redefine software development, especially in rethinking flows and permissioning for AI-driven systems.

Today, Sierra is releasing Ghostwriter, our agent for building agents. With Ghostwriter, you can create an AI agent for your customer experience — one that can chat, pick up the phone, speak dozens of languages, take action on your systems of record, and be protected with industry-leading guardrails — simply by having a conversation. No clicking, no forms, no menus. Codex and Claude Code have transformed how we build software, making it possible for software engineers to orchestrate and review the work rather than doing all the work themselves. We think the same transformation will happen for all software. Rather than every enterprise app having a web app for humans and an API for automation, every software platform’s UI will be an agent that can do the work on your behalf. I recorded a demo of my building and optimizing an agent with Ghostwriter so you can see how powerful and easy it is to use. It’s completely changed the way our early adopters build agents, and it’s changed the way I think about the software industry. Let me know what you think, and, if you’re interested in trying it out at your business, please reach out directly.

SaaS isn’t dead, it just needs to become agent-native. Linear (Linear) is a great example of how: They pivoted the product to be used by both humans and agents, and that has made them one of the premier software tools in the agent-native era. I had Linear’s cofounder and CEO Karri Saarinen on Every 📧's AI & I to talk about how a product management tool for human software developers became an agent-native tool—and how Linear’s trajectory reveals a bright future for SaaS businesses: - Speed means decisions matter more, not less. AI makes it easy to have an idea and build it without considering whether its existence is justified. When ChatGPT was released, SaaS companies were launching their own chatbots left, right, and center. Instead of jumping on the bandwagon, Linear stopped to consider whether the application was useful. (It wasn’t.) - Just because the technology has changed doesn’t mean your mission should. Karri attributes Linear’s success to never losing sight of what matters: helping teams develop great software. Instead of chasing trends, Linear focused on understanding how AI was impacting its customers’ workflows—and updating its product accordingly. - Agents are now first-class users. Linear never tried to change what it was or did well; it just expanded the user base. Companies can now kick off agents inside Linear, manage them, and track what they're working on alongside the humans on the team, which explains why Codex, Coinbase, and Brex all run their agents on Linear. This is a must watch for anyone interested in how an agent-native SaaS company operates. Watch below! Timestamps: Introduction and how Every first discovered Linear: 00:00:39 Why Linear waited to ship AI features instead of rushing to chatbots: 00:02:00 Linear's agent platform and becoming the system that guides AI agents: 00:05:06 Why "SaaS is dead" is a simplistic narrative: 00:07:42 How Linear adopted AI coding tools internally: 00:12:18 AI's impact on product building workflows—speed versus thoughtfulness: 00:17:45 The value of conceptual work and thinking before shipping: 00:22:18 How AI is reshaping Linear's product strategy: 00:29:30 Demo: Linear's agent skills, shared context, and code review workflow: 00:37:18 The future of product development and the enduring role of human judgment: 00:47:48

How many AI agents work at your company? We now have over 3,258 agents working alongside 1,300 humans. The crazy part is these agents were created by EVERY EMPLOYEE at our company... sales reps, marketers, customer support, product, eng. Literally EVERYONE. BUT I'm most surprised by the adoption and value that MANAGERS are getting from agents. I used to think that every IC would become a manager of agents. Now I think that managers will very likely manage WAY more agents than their ICs combined. And managers' agents will manage their ICs' agents - overseeing them for human-in-the-loop interactions. When creating agents, we use 100% context from all of your activity, files edited, tasks and projects worked on, hierarchy, skills, and role information. We build a user-based context model to make agents as relatable as possible to the specific human that we're building for. This means they truly understand the nuances of the work and what "great" looks like - because great is very much in the eye of the beholder. Great is by definition, subjective. This is also why the human ENGAGEMENT loops are SO vital to agent value. The iteration AFTER the agent is onboarded is where the MAGIC happens. This is just like a manager managing an IC in real life... you're giving feedback. In this case, though, agents learn INSTANTLY, and they retain the knowledge perfectly and indefinitely. Even though I've been pushing AI for years now to everyone in our company, this was the first time we had truly end-to-end AI adoption and retention. This kind of AI adoption is wild. But the value we're realizing is truly INSANE. Super Agents outnumber our humans nearly 3 to 1. What if you could 3X your workforce overnight? Watch this video to see how 👇

Here we go again 🚀! Excited to announce that we're building A1Zap (YC W25) with Pennie Li and that we're in the Y Combinator W25 batch in San Francisco! What is A1Base? A1Base gives AI Agents a real world identity for work. We do that by rebuilding Twilio and Okta from the ground up, putting AI Agents first. This means developers can make AI-first agentic applications 10x easier with our API's. ⁉️ Why are we doing this? Because there's a huge torrent of new valuable companies possible with AI agents, but to get their AI Agents to users, they have to chain custom apps, chat interfaces, awkward Slack integrations, browser bots, and wrestle with Twilio’s legacy API (which is built for marketing). We solve this by providing developers with an easy to use API to interface your AI agent with humans/coworkers/users where they are in this case in Whatsapp, Slack, Teams, SMS and more) - with AI Agent features built in. These digital workers are poised to transform how we work and we're the critical infrastructure to help them interact naturally in human workflows. We're not just building another AI tool. We're creating the infrastructure that will enable AI agents to become a natural part of the workforce - handling everything from customer support to sales development to creative work. We're backed by Y Combinator and working with founding teams who share our vision. We believe that in the near future, AI Agents with human coworkers will enable us to pursue more creative and impactful work. Our mission is to help developers build AI Agents that people can partner with and rely on as trusted allies—always with a human-first mindset. If you're thinking about the Agentic future of your company reach out! If you're looking to build your first AI Agentic company - reach out too - we have some amazing open source templates to get you started on the journey. Excited to share more of what we're up to soon 🔜.

🚨 this chinese guy makes over $1,000,000 a year… by building AI agents. no employees. no massive startup. he just keeps building. while most people are still asking ChatGPT random questions, he’s using Claude to build software that solves real problems. this is what people call vibe coding. he opens Claude and says: “build me an AI agent for real estate businesses that creates property videos.” Claude writes the code. builds the interface. adds subscriptions. helps deploy the app. within a day, he has a working product. then he starts building the next one. that’s the part most people don’t understand. he isn’t trying to build one billion-dollar company. he’s building dozens of AI agents, each solving one problem for one industry. → an AI agent for dentists → an AI agent for ecommerce brands → an AI agent for podcasters → an AI agent for real estate businesses each one automates work that people normally do by hand. each one is built with simple prompts. each one can become a real business. the crazy part? you don’t need to be a software engineer anymore. you need to know how to think like a builder. how to spot problems. how to explain solutions to AI. and how to ship. that’s exactly why i’m reading this article: “How to Actually Build Your First AI Agent.” because this is the skill that’s creating the next generation of builders. the people who learn to build AI agents today won’t just use AI. they’ll own the tools everyone else ends up paying for.
