Three months ago, Codex was trash for knowledge work. Now it's my daily driver. I use it for writing, recruiting, deep engineering work, and everything in between. It even keeps me at inbox 0. I chatted with Every 📧's head of growth Austin Austin Tedesco on Every 📧's AI...

.Natalia rode so hard for Claude Code we devoted an episode to how she was using it to automate her job running Every 📧’s consulting practice. Fast forward to five months later, and she rides just as hard for Codex. I had her back on AI & I to talk about what caused her to make the switch, including how she ran a prompt in Codex before bed and woke up to a finished, custom CRM tool. We get into: - Why she finds Codex easier to use than Claude Code - How she’s using loops in Codex to create customized tools that work exactly how she needs them to - Why the consulting team still pays for SaaS products like Attio and Asana even though they could vibe code their own versions - How she built an app to manage her father’s medical care in Codex - How knowledge work is evolving from sculpting to gardening, in which you develop the context and logic you need for an agent to execute for you This is a must-watch for anyone trying to figure out whether to build their own tools or buy real software—and what it takes to get an AI agent to run unsupervised for hours and nail the output. Watch below! Timestamps 1. Introduction: 00:01:05 2. How Natalia manages Claudie, the consulting team’s AI project manager: 00:02:35 3.

OpenAI’s hottest app isn’t ChatGPT—it’s Codex. In the last few weeks alone, the Codex team shipped a desktop app, GPT-5.3 Codex (a new flagship model), and Spark, the fastest coding model I’ve ever used. Usage has grown fivefold since January and over a million people now use Codex weekly. Codex was also the app that OpenAI chose to run an ad for in the Super Bowl. I talked to Thibault (Tibo), head of Codex, and Andrew (Andrew Ambrosino), a member of technical staff who built the Codex app, for Every 📧’s AI & I about what OpenAI is building and how they’re using it internally. We get into: - Why they built a GUI instead of a terminal. Terminals work for quick tasks, they say, but feel limiting when you’re running multiple agents in parallel. The IDE, meanwhile, overwhelms users—and the Codex team wants the AI to dynamically decide which tools to show you for a given task. - How they’re teaching the model to read between the lines. Codex is great at following instructions, but optimize too hard in that direction, and it starts taking you literally—like copying a typo directly into the code. The team obsesses over this tradeoff, and is also introducing “personalities,” modes users can toggle between that control how blunt or supportive the model feels. - How OpenAI uses its own coding agent. Codex lets you schedule prompts to run on a recurring basis, and the team has dozens of automations running at all times. For example, one scans for merge conflicts every couple of hours so code is always ready to ship, and another picks a random file from the codebase multiple times a day and hunts for bugs no one would've gone looking for. - Why speed is a dimension of intelligence. OpenAI’s newest model (Spark) is so fast that they actually slow it down so you can read the output. They see the speed enabling three things: staying super in the flow, replacing brittle developer tools with intelligent ones that can adapt on the fly, and redirecting the model mid-task— especially with voice—so coding starts to feel more and more like a conversation. - Code review is the next bottleneck. Models can generate code faster than ever, but someone still has to verify that it works. The team is exploring a future where the model proves its own fix works—retracing the click path a user would take, screenshotting the results, and attaching the evidence to a pull request. This is a must-watch for anyone who uses AI coding agents—and is curious about the future of programming. Watch below!

🚨 OpenAI just launched Codex, a brand-new autonomous coding agent that can build features and fix bugs on its own. We’ve been using it Every 📧 for a few days, and I’m impressed. I invited Alexander Embiricos (ben davies), a member of the product staff responsible for Codex, to demo Codex and talk about it live on a special edition of AI & I: What Codex is and how it works Codex is designed to be used by senior engineers—it performs coding tasks like adding features or fixing bugs autonomously. It's built to allow you to start many sessions at once, so you can have multiple agents working in parallel. Codex is built to have "taste" OpenAI trained Codex to have the taste of a senior software engineer. It knows how big codebases work, how to write a good PR, and uses clean, minimal code. Why an “abundance mindset” is best for interacting with agents Codex is designed to allow users to delegate many tasks at once without getting caught up in the details. This lets you point an abundance of agents at a specific task like a difficult bug—it’s worth it even if only one of them succeeds. How OpenAI is thinking about agents Codex is one piece of a unified super-assistant OpenAI wants to eventually build—an agent that helps users easily get things done by selecting the right tools for them behind the scenes. OpenAI’s vision for the future of programming In the future developers will probably spend less time writing routine code and more time guiding agents, reviewing their work, and making strategy decisions. Programming will become more social, letting teams easily delegate multiple tasks at once, allowing people to focus on ideas and collaboration instead of routine coding. Watch below!

I vibe coded a new product on the side while running Every 📧—and today we're launching it for free. It's called Proof, and it’s a live collaborative document editor where humans and AI agents work together in the same doc. It’s built from the ground up for the kinds of documents agents are increasingly writing: bug reports, PRDs, implementation plans, research briefs, copy audits, strategy docs, memos, and proposals. It's fast, free, and open source—available now at Why Proof? When everyone on your team is working with agents, there's suddenly a ton of AI-generated text flying around—planning docs, strategy memos, session recaps. But the current process for collaborating and iterating on agent-generated writing is…weirdly primitive. It mostly takes place in Markdown files on your laptop, which makes it reminiscent of document editing in 1999. That’s why we built Proof. What makes Proof different? - Proof is agent-native. Anything you can do in Proof, your agent can do just as easily. - Proof tracks provenance: A colored rail on the left side of every document tracks who wrote what. Green means human, Purple means AI. - Proof is login-free and open source: This is because we want Proof to be your agent's favorite document editor. How we use Proof Every 📧: - Brandon Gell had OpenAI's Codex write a feature plan in Proof, then tagged my personal Claw (R2-C2) in Slack to review it. R2-C2 left feedback, I added comments, Brandon's agent revised the plan, and then Codex executed on it. Brandon submitted a PR to production without writing a line of code. - Austin Tedesco texts his Claw ideas while he's out on a run, then has it maintain a running Proof doc for his weekly food newsletter. He dictates drafts using Naveen Naidu's Monologue, writes into the outline himself, and uses the provenance gutter to track what's his voice vs. the agent's. - Kieran Klaassen uses it as a lightweight scratchpad for his compound engineering workflow. He brainstorms with an agent in the terminal, shares to Proof with one click, then opens the doc to leave comments and tells the agent to go work on them. His take: Proof's job is to communicate about writing and ideas. Proof is free, open source, and requires no login. I built the whole thing by vibe coding between meetings. I sat down with Brandon, Kieran, and Austin on Every 📧's AI & I to demo it live and talk about how it's changing the way we work. If you're building with agents and need a better way to collaborate on text, this one's for you. Watch below! Timestamps Introduction and the origin story of Proof: 00:02:00 From Mac app to collaborative web editor: 00:07:24 What makes Proof "agent native": 00:09:00 Live demo—watching an agent join and write inside a shared document: 00:14:30 How Austin uses Proof for creative writing and food journalism: 00:20:51 The challenge of multiple agents editing one document simultaneously: 00:24:30 When AI-written docs are better read by agents than by humans: 00:26:48 Brandon's agent-to-agent collaboration loop: 00:29:30 Proof as a lightweight scratchpad versus existing tools like Notion and GitHub: 00:37:09 Why Proof is open source and what that means for builders: 00:42:18

In the future, you’ll be able to accomplish a goal by just giving Claude an outcome and a budget. That’s the direction Anthropic is building in with its new Managed Agents features, announced at this week’s Code with Claude developer event. The basic idea: Claude, wrapped in a computer in the cloud, that you can spin up, scale, and manage as needed. Anthropic is taking on the infrastructure that kills most agent products, and making sure that it scales to meet the needs of agents running 24/7. On this week’s AI & I from Every 📧, I talk with Angela Jiang (Angela Jiang), head of product for the Claude platform, and Katelyn Lesse (Katelyn Lesse), head of engineering for the Claude platform, about what Anthropic is building and what it takes to make agents reliable in production. We get into: - Why the "build a generic harness, hot-swap any model behind it" playbook is already outdated. Angela points to eval data on Memory where the same task across different harnesses performed drastically differently. - The infrastructure wall every team hits in production—and why Katelyn thinks “my sandbox died and took the agent with it” is the real reason internal agents don't ship. - Why Anthropic is so bullish on using file systems and skills within Claude, including Angela's argument that those early design choices can compound for years. This is a must-watch for anyone trying to take an agent past the demo and into production. Watch below! Timestamps: How the Claude platform evolved from API to agents: 00:01:48 The primitives that make up Claude Managed Agents: 00:04:09 Why the harness and the model are becoming a single unit: 00:10:37 The infrastructure wall that kills most agent projects in production: 00:18:49 Why team agents need a different shape than individual productivity tools: 00:24:49 How Anthropic's legal team uses an agent to review marketing copy: 00:26:36 Using multi-agent orchestration for advisor strategies, adversarial pairs, and swarms: 00:34:24 How to measure agent success with outcome and budget as the end state: 00:35:50 What the platform looks like a year from now, when Claude writes its own harness: 00:39:11

Even when things are going great, running a $1.5 billion AI startup is a knife fight. Granola was one of the first AI apps of this generation to achieve near-ubiquitous adoption. But meeting notes are not the company’s be-all and end-all. The real battle is over owning the interface that everyone uses to get their work done in an AI-native world. I had Chris Pedregal (Chris Pedregal), cofounder and CEO of Granola, back on Every 📧’s AI & I to talk about the current state of the application layer, AI’s frontier, and the future of work. We get into: - Why meeting notes clones don’t matter. Three big companies cloned Granola’s core feature. To him, meeting notes were never the real prize. “Easy come, easy go” is his view of anyone’s lead, including his own. - How he thinks about building proactive features in AI. Granola pre-generates millions of pre-meeting briefs, which include context on the nature of the meeting and people participating, that most people never open. But when they do, they have a magical experience. - Why Granola is betting on “bring your own agent.” Chris says the API and MCP will get “a lot better” over the next few months, and we talk about their agent-native strategy and why they’ve pushed the product that way. This is a must-watch for anyone building at the application layer. Watch the episode! Timestamps Introduction: 00:00:59 Why running a company is a knife fight even when it’s working: 00:01:57 Granola’s counterintuitive view on competition: 00:04:33 Dan’s “pirate and architect” model for early-stage product teams: 00:10:44 Granola’s “shaping” and “validation” phases for building features: 00:13:09 Why Dan lives almost entirely inside Codex: 00:18:17 The case for “Codex-native apps”: 00:24:40 Granola’s “handrail” philosophy: 00:35:37 Why Granola is going all in on winning meeting-adjacent context: 00:38:12 What a transcript alone can never capture: 00:44:19

Three skills I use every day in Claude Code and Codex to solve my hardest problems: 1️⃣ /agent-watchdog When I have one agent like Codex working on a task and I don't fully trust it's going to do everything right, I'll open up another one like Claude Code and tell it to watchdog the Codex thread. You can copy the Codex deep link into Claude Code and it'll look at the prompt you sent, watch the Codex thread until it's done, then compare the Codex solution to how it was planning to solve it and automatically fix anything that Codex missed. It can also test the work of the other agent end-to-end. Similar to the idea of OpenRouter's new Fusion feature, I've definitely found that two models thinking through a problem and checking each other's work can be wildly more impactful than just one. 2️⃣ /plan-arbiter Similar ideas as /agent-watchdog - but with this one you have both make plans, compare plans, negotiate the differences, and make a final plan to execute. I find Claude Code is better at writing plans, but Codex is faster and cheaper to execute on them. Then I usually have Claude Code watchdog the Codex work and fix anything that was missed. 3️⃣ /read-the-damn-docs One thing that drives me crazy with coding agents is they're so reluctant to look up docs. They'll just guess and guess and guess at the right API surface for things, or the right solution to an integration of two things. Once I explicitly tell it to look up the docs, it says "Oh, I see the answer," and it fixes the problem. So I made the /read-the-damn-docs skill. Add it and your agents will know when and how to do efficient web searches to look up docs for the types of problems you really should look up docs for. All of these are totally open source over on my GitHub. If you try them, let me know your feedback. Will link to them below:

We built an AI app that had 1,000 DAU and $2k MRR before it launched. It’s called Monologue and it’s a smart dictation app built by a single developer: Naveen Naidu. We just launched Monologue yesterday, and it’s one of the fastest-growing and stickiest AI apps that Every 📧 has ever built. Naveen and Monologue are compelling because he’s competing against companies that have raised $50m or more. Because of AI he was able to build an extremely polished, delightful app by himself in just a few months. I brought Naveen on to AI & I along with Every 📧 COO Brandon Gell (Brandon Gell) to talk about his journey with Monologue. We get into: - Why shipping fast is the only thing that matters in AI: Monologue might look like an overnight success, but it wasn’t Naveen’s first, second—or even third—app. Over time, he built a muscle to get quality apps out the door, iterate on them, and learn from what he was seeing. - How he got to PMF inside of Every: The mistake Naveen regrets most in his entrepreneurial journey is building in the dark. Inside of Every 📧 he has an environment where feedback is plentiful—and it let him iterate extremely quickly. - His stack for building production grade AI apps: Naveen breaks down how he used tools like OpenAI’s Codex to do the work of a whole engineering team, including solving hard technical problems like Mac hotkey handling. This is a must-watch for anyone who wants to see how far a single developer and some AI tools can really go. Watch below! Timestamps: Introduction: 00:01:27 A live demo of Monologue: 00:03:51 Hard lessons from Naveen’s years in the wilderness: 00:06:27 Building a muscle to ship fast: 00:12:29 The spark that became Monologue: 00:21:11 Dogfooding your way to a killer feature: 00:26:09 Why the harshest product feedback is the most valuable: 00:29:45 Every’s strategy for launching an app in a crowded space: 00:31:47 Giving Monologue the Every “smell”: 00:40:08 Naveen’s one-person AI stack to build beautiful apps: 00:45:09
