I’m excited today to share Grapevine, a system that makes it really easy for AI agents to search company knowledge across, Slack, Notion, codebase, and more. The first app we’re launching with it is a company GPT that works remarkably well, better than any alternative today.

Were we early? Yes. But I'd like to think we were also right in time for something big. 😎

When you provision a new RPC endpoint on QuickNode, it auto-generates the instance with a random phrase. Our Base chain was randomly assigned "damp newest market". Couldn't have said it better myself!
