Got all my stuff stolen at b*rkeley There should be more cameras and crime prevention technology.

Last night, someone smashed my passenger window on Dwight, grabbed my backpack, and stole my laptop, iPad, AirPods, and three weeks of orgo notes.

I filed a report with SUDPS this morning. The officer laughed and said this happens every day. He told me to check Oakland pawn shops and that they only respond if someone is bleeding.

I'm done. I want cameras on every corner. public, private, business, and Ring doorbells. Network them so repeat plates and faces get flagged immediately. All the cameras and footage already exist. We just need to use them.

Universities should be implementing FLOCK technologies.

Downvote if you want.

Product: AI employees/interns that observe your existing workflow (Slack, email, calendar, docs) and execute work, instead of forcing you to learn a new tool. Right now we have Alex, an AI Product Manager: PRDs, backlog prioritization, roadmap updates, sprint summaries. Two more roles in queue, Program Manager and Marketing.

Use case: Non-technical operator (PM, ops lead, marketing lead) at a company with AI budget but no deployment plan. They want a hire, not another tool to learn.

Market and dynamics: A lot of enterprise AI spend lands in seats that go unused after month one. The buyer in our segment is non-technical, controls the budget, and is judged on output. The wedge is the adoption gap, not raw model quality.

Competition:

- General-purpose: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini. Powerful, but require the user to drive.

- Agent platforms: Lindy, Sierra, Decagon. Stronger on CX and ops automation, lighter on persona-based vertical roles.

- The labs themselves: biggest existential risk. If OpenAI or Anthropic ship branded AI employees, our defensibility lives in the integration + persona + memory layer, not the model.

Stage: Private beta. Active users. Three technical co-founders, full time. Not currently raising. Plan to apply YC Summer 2026 and a16z.

Lead Acquisition: Inbound (waitlist, organic), warm intros from operators who've been burned by stalled AI rollouts. No paid acquisition yet.

Team: 4 technical co-founders, 1 being a PM for big tech. Everyone has a tech background.

Differentiation: The agents we are launching is supposed to monitor your workflow and build automated systems for you without you needing to prompt or work with the AI. Making this more accessible to non-technical people. Think of it as a AGI Employee.

Open to roasting on: overall product. does our website do a good job conveying what we do? Do you think we are a product worth paying for? Do you believe that we do a good job conveying the depth of our product?

Thank you!
