The $3.5B startup from India

Today’s Daily Digest was crafted by Product Hunt and sponsored by our friends at Freshworks for Startups.
Freshworks launched 10 years ago as a 6 member team in a small office in Chennai, India. Today, the company is worth $3.5B, with 13 offices around the world. They’ve seen scale from both sides with customers of it’s cloud-based suite including Honda, Cisco, Unicef, Hugo Boss, Toshiba, plus over 40K other businesses around the world.
In solidarity with their startup roots, the team at Freshworks recently launched Freshworks for Startups as a way to give back to the startup community.
The Challenge
On any given day a founder might wear a dozen hats, taking on the role of business analyst, marketer, HR personnel, inventory clerk, warehouse manager, product manager, customer service agent, and many more.
With so many conflicting priorities competing for attention, it can be hard to ensure that customers receive the best service without detracting from an already strained budget and timetable.

This offer includes all Freshworks product across Sales CRM, Helpdesk, Chat, Caller, Marketing Automation, and Agile Project Management (two scrums up). Plus, it all comes with premium onboarding and mentorship so your team can get all the training they need to put this software to work.
This exclusive offer is only valid Until August 30, 2020.

Your agents stopped answering and started doing
Your agents call tools, write to databases and move money, so a wrong answer is now a wrong action, which is a considerably worse meeting. Arcjet runs policy before every LLM call, tool call, query and API request: prompt injection, sensitive data, bots, rate limits, spend quotas, and your own rules in Rego on top. It reads the OpenTelemetry you already emit, so switching it on is one environment variable, no code changes and nothing to deploy. Each check also reads the earlier steps in the same workflow, so an agent's tenth action gets judged against the first nine and not on its own. JavaScript, Python and Go SDKs all at 1.0, agent framework guards included, free tier to start on.
