It's been such a privilege to build @nocodeops with my co-founder @PhilipLakin and our incredible team over the past 3+ years. I am proud of what we've accomplished and couldn't be more excited to join efforts with @zapier! .

Super proud of the team for this launch. We saw that even after syncing automations and dependent assets/endpoints into Operator, our users wanted an easy way to document complex ops workflows. Using Notion style @ mentions in Operator means you just have to write out a process

No-code app builders like Bubble might realize it was a mistake to hide the code from users. I think systems like @dynaboard by @kernio are set up for long term success by being able to show syntax/work with copilot.

Some related @sivers wisdom: . “The adding mindset is deeply ingrained. It’s easy to think I need something else. It’s hard to look instead at what to remove.”.

I’m a big fan of systems that acknowledge hard constraints on time/energy/resources. When you’re younger and time feels unlimited, it’s easy to spend it poorly. I’ve noticed my friends with kids might only have 2 hours to spend on craft per day, but they use that time well.

But just as mobile didn't kill web, I don't think saas is going anywhere. It's still early days, but it's worth thinking about.- how saas data could plug into the assistants.- which features are complementary with a chat input box vs competitive.

Once the dust settles in the next 12-18 months with a handful of smart assistants living in Slack, browser, etc, I think some saas UI will become redundant. For example, I likely need fewer dashboards if I can just ask a question related to metrics and get the answer.

Today we're mostly using it to speed up velocity as a small eng team.- Translating unstructured backend data to text in our UI.- using copilot for first draft thinking, writing tests. Modest gains, but the experiment muscle built is likely more important with what's coming soon.

It's an unsettling time to be a product builder as AI brings our next platform shift since mobile into focus 😅. Kinda hard trying to balance the reality of what models are capable of today while predicting where our products fit into the assistant UIs right around the corner.

"No-code doesn't scale" 😉 @zapier

After using this for a few days, I think this integration will greatly open the no-code doors to people who just need a quick frontend for their zaps. Plus the ability to add in more complex workflows when you need them.
