What happens when designers, PMs, and ops teams start shipping software themselves? Musixmatch — the company powering lyrics on Spotify, Apple Music, and Google — found out firsthand. Faced with six-month product cycles and a growing backlog of ideas that never shipped, they turned to Replit. In roughly two... show more

Q: How do you build effective teams? Keith Rabois, Founders Fund Partner and former COO of Square, has a great framework for building effective teams that he calls: “Barrels and Ammunition.” When most companies begin scaling, they just hire a lot of people. Naively, they expect that—as they add people—their velocity of shipping will increase. But startups don’t work that way, and in fact you sometimes get less done when you add more people. Keith argues that the reason for this is that most people in your company—even great people—are what he calls “ammunition.” But what you need in your company are “barrels”. He defines barrels as extremely talented people who can take ideas from inception all the way through to fully shipped product. To increase company velocity, you need to add “barrels” and then stock them with “ammunition.” Most companies start with one barrel (the founder) and then double their throughput when they add another one. In the clip below, he explains this framework and some specific tactics for identifying and managing barrels:

We live in the solo founder era. That's for sure and building with AI has accelerated. I am building software to use for myself and replace the expensive tools I used to use. And partially thanks to AI we can build faster, but not dramatically faster if you want to build a commercial grade product. Before I was using a live chat and customer support tool that costed around 50-100$ a month. This helped me to interact with the customers of my agency or prospects. But I decided a few months ago to build my own and stop paying for these more expensive solutions. I did and turned into a product for everyone to use. The build was not 1-2 hours of work using AI, but it was a several-month process on and off as I needed it. Finally, it has turned into a commercial grade product. I have built several of these and this is when we will see more and more solutions like these. Let's start bootstrapping before showing MRR figures.

It’s official – I’m excited to introduce Alloy (), the world’s first tool for prototypes that look exactly like your product. All year, PMs and designers have struggled with off-brand prototypes – built with “app builder” tools that look nothing like their existing app. They’re left with confused stakeholders, prototypes they can’t show customers, and demos where they’re apologizing for the design. Your prototypes should look like your actual product. Starting today, they can. Alloy is AI Prototyping built for Product Management: ➤ Capture your product from the browser in one click ➤ Chat to build your feature ideas in minutes ➤ Share a link with teammates and customers ➤ 30+ integrations for PM teams: Linear, Notion, Jira Product Discovery, and more In lab results, Alloy delivers 3-5x more detail than alternatives when you start from an existing product. It’s powered by groundbreaking technology you won’t find in any other tool. Alloy is now available for you to try for free. Comment “ALLOY” and I’ll DM you an invite with instant access and extra credits.

Google wrote the paper that made ChatGPT possible. Then decided not to build ChatGPT. Sergey Brin just explained why on stage at Stanford and the reason is more embarrassing than anyone expected. In 2017, Google published the transformer paper. The architecture that powers every major AI model today. It came from their own researchers. Their own labs. Their own compute. Then they sat on it. Sergey was blunt about why. They underinvested in scaling the compute. They did not take it seriously enough. And when they finally had something worth shipping, they got scared. Chatbots say dumb things. Google had a reputation to protect. So they protected it instead of shipping. OpenAI was not scared. Ilya Sutskever, trained at Google, left and went there. Other Google researchers followed. They took the transformer architecture, scaled it, shipped it anyway, and captured the entire generative AI wave while Google watched. Sergey called it a mistake at Stanford in front of hundreds of students. The company that invented the technology did not build the product. The company that built the product did not invent the technology. That is the most expensive case of corporate hesitation in the history of the industry. --- Watch the full interview YT.

ALERT: Live iguana shipped to a FedEx store jumped out of the package when its new owner opened the box, sending employees running and jumping on the counters. Roderick Duncan went to a FedEx store in Memphis, Tennessee, to pick up a new pet iguana that was shipped to him by a breeder. Employees initially thought it was a fish, and one employee asked to see the lizard once they learned what was in the package. When Duncan opened the bag the iguana was in, it took off and jumped off the counter, running into the back room where Duncan eventually secured the lizard, now named Titan. 📹: chefp_ | IG

The rules of professional product development are being rewritten in real time. - PMs and designers can ship software as easily as engineers. - Software is no longer just built for humans—it’s also built for agents as first-class citizens. To better understand how we build products in this world, I invited Mike Krieger (Mike Krieger) on Every 📧’s AI & I podcast. Mike cofounded Instagram and is now a member of the technical staff at Anthropic, co-leading Anthropic Labs, their internal incubator for experimental products. He's been at the frontier of two transformative technology waves: mobile/social and now agent-native software. We discussed: - How to build a truly agent-native product. The best products today, like Claude Code, allow users to do things that their creators never intended. But that requires hard trade-offs between freedom and safety/reliability for frontier products, an issue that Mike's team is learning how to solve. - What's different about building now versus building Instagram. At Instagram, it took months to hit dead ends and learn what to cut. Now, that cycle runs in hours. - The trap of building too much, too fast with agents. You can go from idea to a nearly-shipped product in a day, but that process doesn’t give you the incremental feedback that used to tell you what not to build. The models are great at adding features, but can create a product that lacks coherence. - How Anthropic Labs structures product teams. New product experiments are led by only two people, usually a product manager or designer paired with an engineer. Mike says bigger teams tend to be too slow because of coordination costs. - Why you need to throw out your product and start over every three to six months. AI progress means most of your harness will be outdated quickly—the best teams build this into their product strategy. And much more! You should watch this one. Timestamps Introduction: What's gotten easier—and what hasn't—about building products in the age of AI: Why vibe coding creates "indoor trees": How rewrites have become a normal part of the development process: What "agent native" product design means: How Mike's labs team is structured and the cofounder model: The best signal for a product bet is someone with "break through walls" conviction: Navigating enterprise customers while keeping pace with rapid AI change: OpenClaw, personal agents, and the product question defining 2026:

I wanted to learn a little bit more about physics. Now I have 8 PhDs. This really IS wild, Gemini 3.7 Flash wasn't just a tiny little spec bump. They snuck in a huge release with this. I am definitely impressed! Google AI Studio went to town and built tested, and shipped this educational game that is a masterclass in, well ... lots. Too much to even pack into this demo too! Btw when I say built and shipped, Google Antigravity really shipped it. It built, tested, recorded the demo GIFs, screenshots, and sent it up to GitHub for me!

Jack Dorsey on becoming a better storyteller: "I found myself very early on thinking about something like thinking about this early idea for Twitter and saying to myself, I could build this awesome. You have those shower-like moments, or you're walking at midnight in some town in New York City, and you've got these amazing brand ideas. And then you start thinking, well, I could really start doing this if only X and if I had this person or if this technology existed or if this happened or this happened. And what I realized was that I was constantly making excuses for not working on it. And then the window had passed, and then I couldn't do anything. So I think it's really, really important to write it out or to draw it out or to code it. But you need to get it out of your head. And the reason you have to get it out of your head is that you need to be able to see it on a surface that is not in your mind. And once you can see it, and once you can step back from it, then you can also decide this passes my filter, my constraints, so maybe I can show it and share it with some other people. And then they will be like that's the stupidest idea ever and or that's somewhat interesting, but maybe this and this and this. So the sooner you can do that, then you have a lot of momentum around it, and you can really decide if you want to commit to it and work on it more or put it on the shelf for a later date. And the realization that I think everyone needs to have about that latter option, putting it on the shelf, is that you can come back to it and it will surface back up in another piece of work or another idea at some point in your life. So having that ability to close off a chapter and move on is really, really important. You can't have all these open threads, and that's what I realized I was doing. And that also encouraged me to really write more and to really think about what's the story? How are people coming to this? And like when I show my friends this, how are they going to react and I would write it down. I would actually treat it like a play. And when I realized that I was writing plays, I read a lot more plays for style and for substance and for technique and I think it's really good. I think there is another company that I have always looked towards for inspiration and I know a number of people in this room probably have a similar company in mind, which is Apple. Apple, I think, is run like a theater company. It has a great sense of pacing, has a great sense of story and has a great sense of execution and it's all about event-driven, it's all stage-driven, the stage being a billboard or the stage being a keynote or the stage being a product launch. All of it has a very, very cohesive end-to-end story. I mean you think about what happened when Steve Jobs came back to the company. The first thing he did was kill every product line the company was working on. And for two years,rs they had no product on the market whatsoever. All they had were a bunch of posters all around the world with Steve Jobs' heroes, and it said, think different. And it was just focused on bringing up the brand and making people aware of the brand again and how the brand is aligning to this particular feeling and story. And then they came out with the iMac and then built iTunes and then the iPod, and they realized that, wait a minute, people are carrying music on their phones now, so we better build a phone, an iPhone. And so this unfolding of the plot and the epic story has been very, very interesting to watch, especially if you look back to that time when he came back to the company. So I've learned a lot from that company and other companies that operate in a similar fashion."

Drop what you're doing and watch this. A 22 year old non-coder built an app that made $60K in its first month. Another non-coder built one in 3 days and crossed $180K in roughly 2 months. The lesson isn't "learn to code." It's almost the opposite. Watch this video. Then copy the link to the $1,000/48hour blueprint article. This 36 minute conversation explains why the rules of building a software business are changing. Amol Jain, Head of Product Engineering at Replit, walks through real nontechnical founders who built businesses reaching $60K in a first month and $180K+ in roughly two months, but the important lesson isn't the tool they used. It's what happened when building the software stopped being the hardest part. The advantage moved to finding an underserved problem, understanding the people who have it, getting the product in front of them, earning their trust and convincing them to pay. If code keeps getting cheaper, distribution, judgment and customer understanding become more valuable. That's the part I'd pay very close attention to.

"If everyone can build, it's your unique expertise, judgement, distribution, and more that people will pay for." Here’s my new episode with Amol Jain, Replit ⠕'s head of product engineering, about what it takes to turn a vibe-coded product into a real business. Amol shared: → 3 examples of apps built by non-coders that reached six figures → 4 steps to take an AI-built app from prototype to production (security!) → How to find your competitive advantage when code is free Some quotes from Amol: “He built the whole thing end to end in three days. Within the first two months, he was already at $180K+ in revenue.” “At Replit, this internal tool saves us six figures in SaaS costs. More importantly, anytime we want to add a feature, we just do it. We’re not at the mercy of someone else’s roadmap.” “The businesses that survive go beyond code to offer expertise, trust, infrastructure, networks, systems of record, data, physical goods, or services.” 📌 Watch now: Thanks to our sponsors: Riverside: The all-in-one AI studio I use to record and edit my podcast Linear: The AI agent platform for modern teams

.Sam Altman on why the best founders never run out of ideas: "You can give a founder an idea and they can start a company. The problem is they need to come up with new ideas for a company basically every week. Crazy new ideas, big changes, all the time. We tried an experiment once at YC where we funded 20 teams of strong founders who didn't have ideas but were otherwise really good. They all failed. And what we learned is that the good founders are the people who have ideas all the time. There's an intelligence component to this, a creativity component, an ability to think independent thoughts. But whatever you want to call it, this particular kind of intelligence that leads to seeing problems in different ways and thinking of ideas that don't yet exist but should, you've got to have that in a founder."

"These are people that would never otherwise even touch code and they're now using Replit ⠕ themselves and they're building things that actually work." - Databricks CEO Ali Ghodsi Ali says non-technical employees across their 10,000 person company are building real software with Replit ⠕: "We have 5-6,000 people that are sitting in marketing or in HR or in finance and they don't have those technical skills. Replit is excellent. They love it." "Whenever you build a piece of software that works with Replit, it uses a database behind the scenes and actually we have a very deep partnership with them. So it uses our lakehouse offering behind the scenes." "Replit is really amazing for democratization to the broader masses. The people that you would never imagine would write a single line of code." Databricks Ventures also invested in Replit as of today.

Perplexity CEO told Joe Rogan that Microsoft created office work. The dates say otherwise. To be fair to him, half of it is true. Gates really did want a PC on every desk, and Microsoft did make Word and Excel the default tools that almost every office job trains you on. That part is real strategy, and it worked. The history is where it falls apart. Office work didn't start with Microsoft. Purpose-built offices go back to the 1700s, and office jobs boomed in the late 1800s. In the US, clerical work climbed for most of the 20th century and peaked in 1980. Word shipped in 1983. Excel was shipped in 1985. So the lifestyle hit its high point before the software everyone blames for it existed. Microsoft didn't build the wave. It sold the surfboards once the wave was already a century deep. When a founder narrates history, and their own product turns out to be the hero, check the dates. The story flatters the product by design.

"Some of the biggest companies from the tech ecosystem in the last 25 years started with the consumer; Amazon, Google, Facebook, Apple. "Their first goal was to entice a user to engage. That's a magical place to build from because you can move at the speed of technology." - Kirsten Green (Founder & Managing Partner Forerunner) "The consumer will build with you. They will tell you they hate it. They will tell you they love it." "Why not start with the consumer? Think big, think ambitiously about the future, and the role you want to play as a founder and company builder."

Was Hillary Clinton right all along when it comes to the Israel / Palestinian situation? In this old clip, Hillary says: "Remember, Israel left Gaza. They took out all the Israelis. They turned the keys over to the Palestinian people and what happened? "Hamas took over Gaza, so instead of having a thriving economy with the kind of opportunities that the children of the Palestinians deserve, we have a terrorist haven that is getting more and more rockets shipped in from Iran and elsewhere” I'd love to hear the Hamas defenders respond to this.

BREAKING: Replit just launched mobile apps. Now you can build in Replit ⠕ and submit straight to the App Store for review. Describe your app → build it on Replit → test on your phone → publish to the App Store. I built a unicorn pet app for my niece: - Worked with Replit Agent to build it out - Scanned a QR code to download and test on my phone - One click to send to App Store Connect for review - A couple submissions later, it's live in the App Store! 🙌 I didn't write a single line of code! Just described what I wanted to Agent. Amazing! 😅 Go build something!! 👇
