A16Z, YC, Sequoia, my own newsletter list, the whole portfolio map.

Each one ends up as a CSV with 3000 to 5000 contacts, scored, enriched, with a "why this person" column and an outreach draft column.

Every CRM I've tried wants me to push the raw list in and then live inside their UI. I don't want that. I don't want my scraped database to live in HubSpot. I don't want to pay Clay a thousand a month to move columns around.

Attio is close but it's not Claude-native and I do most of my actual work in the terminal.

Right now my workflow is: scrape into SQLite, push to Google Sheets, run Claude Code against the Sheet to enrich and score, then push the scored output to my sequencer.

Sheets is functionally my CRM because it's the only thing that round-trips cleanly with my terminal. It works. It also feels like I'm two years away from the right tool existing.

Claude Code natives. How are you running this?

Are you also bouncing between Sheets via (gws CLI), your own scripts, and a sequencer?

Has anyone found something that's actually local-first and agent-native without being a sales-team CRM in disguise

Hey everyone,

I’m currently 20 years old and in my third year of college. Recently, I’ve been exploring DevRel (Developer Relations) and GTM (Go-To-Market) roles, and honestly, they really excite me.

I feel like in the future, pure coding skills alone may not be enough. Developers who can communicate well, build communities, explain products, and connect with people will become even more valuable. That’s one reason I started getting interested in DevRel.

To be honest, I’m average at coding. I can understand concepts, but hardcore coding has never been something I deeply enjoyed. But I genuinely enjoy talking to people, building communities, managing teams, and creating engagement.

Right now, I’m working with a YouTube company that has almost 10 million subscribers. Previously, in college, I joined multiple clubs, managed communities, and even became the head of some clubs. Through those experiences, I realized I really enjoy community-facing and communication-oriented work.

That’s why I feel DevRel could be a great career path for me.

I’d love guidance from people already in this field:

• How did you start your journey in DevRel or GTM?
• What skills should I focus on?
• Any good resources, courses, or communities to learn from?
• How can someone without very strong coding skills still grow in DevRel?
• And if anyone has internship opportunities or beginner-friendly openings, I’d genuinely love to connect.

Would really appreciate any advice or guidance. Thanks!
