  • Ploy

    An AI marketing platform that builds, optimizes, and grows your website autonomously — pages, SEO, visitor ID, and ads in one loop.

    Ploy turns a website into an autonomous growth engine through three AI engines: Web (builds and optimizes pages at Webflow grade), Grow (identifies visitors and runs account-based outreach), and Ads (creates ads and closes the attribution loop). It handles content creation, technical SEO fixes, answer-engine optimization for AI search visibility, competitor monitoring, and lead scoring — continuously, without a growth hire.

  • Mutiny

    An AI teammate for sales and marketing: meeting prep, follow-ups, on-brand decks and deal rooms, pipeline reviews.

    Mutiny is an AI assistant for go-to-market teams that automates the routine customer-facing work — meeting prep, follow-ups, asset creation (decks, landing pages, deal rooms), and pipeline reviews — while keeping everything on-brand. It ships with pre-loaded GTM playbooks, integrates with Slack, email, CRM, and Claude, lets teams share skills and routines, and surfaces field trends from deal data for exec reporting and coaching.

  • Braintrust

    Watch, score, and improve your agents in production: tracing, evals, and automated pattern discovery in one platform.

    Braintrust is the observability and evaluation platform for teams running AI agents in production: real-time tracing of prompts, responses, and tool calls across millions of runs; evals scored by LLMs, code, or human review; automated pattern discovery (Topics) that surfaces quality regressions; and a Loop agent that optimizes prompts, scorers, and datasets. Runs on Brainstore, a database built for agent-trace data. SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA/GDPR, hybrid deploy. Used by Vercel, Notion, Coursera, Dropbox, and Replit.

  • Vercel

    Push to git, get a deployed site — and increasingly, the infrastructure your agents deploy to and run on.

    Vercel is the deployment platform behind most modern frontend stacks (and every FullStack VC / Astro Knots site): connect a repo, every push deploys globally with preview environments per branch. It has since grown an agentic-infrastructure layer — sandboxed VM environments, durable orchestration for agent workflows, an AI Gateway unifying hundreds of models, Fluid Compute, and tenant isolation — positioning it as the place agents both ship to and run on.

  • Mintlify

    Self-updating documentation that both your users and their AI agents can actually read.

    Mintlify started as the prettiest developer-docs platform and has evolved into agent-native knowledge infrastructure: self-updating documentation that stays current without manual overhead, AI chat answers grounded in your docs, access controls, and an editor humans and agents share. The bet: as agents become the primary readers of documentation, docs stop being a website and become the knowledge layer your product exposes.

  • Lightfield

    A CRM that assembles itself from your email, calendar, and meetings — built by the Tome founders.

    Lightfield is an AI-native CRM from the founders of Tome (Keith Peiris & co, after Tome hit 25M users). Instead of asking reps to log data, it assembles itself from email, calendar, and meetings — capturing every interaction into organized context — then does work on top: meeting prep, personalized drafting at scale, pipeline hygiene (bulk edits, stage updates), stalled-deal revival, and automatic enrichment on a schema-less foundation. Squarely aimed at venture-backed startups making the jump from founder-led sales to a real GTM motion.

  • Chromatic

    Catches the visual bugs your unit tests can't see — every component state, screenshot-diffed on every push.

    Chromatic is the visual testing and UI review platform from the maintainers of Storybook. It renders every possible state of your components on every push, screenshot-diffs them against baselines, and turns 'does the UI still look right?' into an automated, reviewable pipeline — integrating with Storybook, Playwright, and Cypress. Customers include Adobe, the BBC, and CircleCI. Newer angle: AI-powered design systems, so generated UI comes out in your components rather than generic ones.

  • Paseo

    Self-hosted mission control for Claude Code, Codex, and friends — launch agents anywhere, manage them from any device.

    Paseo is a self-hosted, multi-provider orchestration layer for coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Pi, and more): launch agents on your laptop or a remote box, then drive them from Mac, Windows, Linux, iOS, Android, web, or CLI over a direct connection or an end-to-end encrypted relay. Git-worktree isolation for parallel agent runs, a split-panel workspace (agents, browsers, terminals, diffs), fully local voice control, and a scriptable CLI — with your infrastructure and data staying yours.

  • Cloudflare

    DNS, CDN, and security for a fifth of the web — plus Workers, R2, and an increasingly serious edge-AI platform.

    Cloudflare runs the network layer for a huge share of the internet — DNS, CDN, DDoS protection, and zero-trust security — and has built a full developer platform on top: Workers (edge serverless), R2 (S3-compatible storage with zero egress fees), D1 (edge SQLite), Durable Objects, and Workers AI for running models at the edge. Its AI-era moves matter to anyone watching the space: AI crawler controls and pay-per-crawl give publishers leverage over model companies, and its agents SDK targets the emerging agent-runtime layer.
