Do not sleep on Dots! Get at least the $100/month ChatGPT Pro subscription, connect all your major apps and comms platforms, and delight in your new 24/7 super-assistant.
OpenAI’s Dot agent is so good, I haven’t seen anything close in terms of quality of judgment of what will be valuable to me.

Put your agents on autopilot!
Bring your whole team and dozens of AI coding agents into the same chat threads, then let @linzumi_ai keep the fleet coordinated and unblocked. And for a limited time, try state of the art open-weights intelligence free: GLM 5.2 at high speed, via their @wafer_ai partnership. → linzumi.com

People are saying it's the best backend for vibe coders
getadb.com is *the* db for agents. No sign up, nothing, it's magical. Literally just, "Build <x>, use getadb.com for the multiplayer/storage/auth" and it's now concurrently multiplayer with email signin and just working, single shot. Wild!

Webhooks in Instant!
Instant now comes with webhooks. You get the best ideas from what we learned studying GitHub and Stripe… and we sprinkled in (what we think) is an innovation!

The exciting conclusion after brining for almost a year. It was a little too vinegary, but not bad at all.
This year's olive harvest.

You thought you were living on the edge--we're over here making stateful GET requests!
Replying to @instant_db
This may be the fastest way to give an agent a backend Every GET request generates a fresh set of credentials. Agents can use them to spin up databases, real-time sync engines, add auth, streams, and more!

I knew Instant was onto something when I asked Claude Code to build me a web app and (without me saying anything) it recommended Instant for the back-end.

We shipped a new homepage for the 1.0 launch. There are lots of little touches, but my favorite is that the GitHub star count is live. If you happen to be on the page when someone stars, you'll see a little starburst as the number increments. instantdb.com
Instant goes 1.0!

You can also see how many people have starred since we last built the homepage because we embed the current value into the page when we run the build.

We implemented editscript in postgres. When you edit your permissions, we store the diff so that we can apply them back in reverse and recover from mistakes.
Uh oh, Claude got us into trouble:
