You can read the full announcement on our blog, but I thought I'd editorialize a bit more here and tell more of the backstory of what happened over the past 18 months. In late Feb 2024, I brought our engineering team into a war room. Change Healthcare – the nation's largest
Announcing our $70M Series B co-led by @stripe and Addition, and with participation from @USV, @firstround, @BloombergBeta, @BoxGroup, @RibbitCapital, and other top investors. We also recently shipped two AI-native tools: Stedi Agent and MCP server. For more, check below. ⬇️

I told investors from the first day in 2017 that it was going to take a very long time, but once it started working, we would be impossible to catch. 4.5 years to launch our first APIs, +2.5 for the full platform, and +1 to now be one of the fastest-growing software vendors.

I've been playing with a new tool that pairs LLMs with data sources in an Agentic data access pattern called PromptQL from @HasuraHQ. It's a very interesting way to explore and utilize your data, and not just by your data science folks!

I've always been a huge fan of @ShortJared's opinion on developer tooling so I took @HasuraHQ's PromptQL playground for a test drive last night. https://t.co/cAblaDe9th

Neat to see PromptQL go public! I've been playing with it for a little bit now and working with the team to give feedback. Being able to wire in disparate data sources and ask all sorts of questions and get answers has been very neat. Even questions about what questions to ask!

I have some plans to play around and build some more interesting things and write about it, but until then you can play around with it too here:
promptql.io
PromptQL lets you build reasoning AI that is specialized to your business – achieving near-100% accuracy for analysis and automation.

One of the nice parts is PromptQL explains the steps it took in code, so you can understand exactly what it did to get to the answers it gives you. If you notice any problems or mistakes, like an LLM it accepts coaching pretty well to improve things / iterate.

Hot take: AI Assistants are failing us Despite the buzz, closed-domain AI assistants are falling short. Without reliable, context-aware responses, they’re not ready for serious business use. Where AI Assistants Fail Here’s a scenario from a well known sales assistant that’s

Huh. who knew I'd been doing it the faster way most my life. I just thought I was being lazy... turns out it's actually faster!

Anyone know how much of our computing power and energy goes into updating / training weather models? Seems like surprise rapid intensification to cat 5 indicates we have big gaps in the models. (I know nothing about this space, curious for resources to learn more)

Please share this far and wide. As far and wide as you can. NIST Password Guidelines for 2024 are in the process of being updated. This is a HUGE pet-peeve of mine (when vendors in particular are still operating like its 2017 and keep changing passwords every 60 days, STOP DOING

today in awful ideas I've had: `transaction.execute_unprepared("LOCK DATABASE")` I honestly see nothing that could possibly go wrong.

One of our friends embroidered our dog Landra and I’m speechless. This is absolute mastery and art. https://t.co/I67P0yrQ0W

Hey, @ajassy: this song was supposed to be satire, not an instruction manual.

Built my own stupid markdown CMS because I wanted a couple simple features. Turns out if you throw away all the crap it can be fast. Stuff I wanted: automatic reloading in dev, easy flexible directory based rendering, dark mode, not much else. < 300 LOC and minimal deps.

I think the best part of the whole AI coder thing for me is I can spend a lot less time on the drudgery of a throw away / learning project and get the parts out of them I care about.
