Podcasts have become my go-to for staying sharp whether it's catching emerging trends, learning from founders, or picking up tactics I'd never find in a blog post.
My current rotation includes Lenny's Podcast for deep dives into product and growth strategy, and Greg Isenberg's show for his take on trends and building in public. Both feel genuinely useful, not just entertaining.
But I know I'm missing great ones, so I want to hear from this community:
What business or startup podcasts are you actually listening to these days?
Any underrated shows that deserve more listeners?
Has a specific episode ever shifted how you approach your work?
We're living through a strange and exciting moment in business history.
For decades, building a company meant figuring out your product, your customers, your revenue streams the classic building blocks. But now there's something new in the room: AI agents that can think, decide, and act on their own.
I've been self hosting automation tools for years. But I see many developers and non technical users struggling to get started with open source AI agents (n8n, OpenClaw, etc.).
You want the control and privacy of self hosting, but the reality is:
You need a server, Docker, SSL, backups, and monitoring.
Updates break things.
Security is on you.
So I'm curious for those of you who have tried (or wanted to try) self hosting an AI agent:
I ve been exploring ideas around building smarter add-ons for Strava and smartwatch apps, especially features that go beyond tracking and actually help people stay consistent.
Most fitness apps are great at collecting data such as pace, heart rate, distance but they don t always help on low-motivation days or prevent burnout.
From a product perspective, I m curious:
What s a feature you wish existed that would actually change your behaviour?
What would make you open the app daily?
What insight or nudge would feel valuable enough to pay for?
I shipped LangFast out of frustration with the existing tools.
Prompt testing and LLM evaluations should be simple and straightforward. All I wanted was a simple way to test prompts with variables and jinja2 templates across different models, ideally something I could open during a call, run few tests, and share results with my team.
Let s use this thread to share what we ve been preparing - screenshots, videos, feature highlights, anything you re excited about. Would love to see what everyone else is cooking up - drop your apps below and let s turn this into a party thread!
Every AI agent pitch I see includes this phrase somewhere. Human in the loop. Human oversight. Human supervision.
But when I look at how it actually works inside most companies, it breaks down into one of three things:
A person reviews the output after the action already happened. A person could intervene but the system makes it slow and inconvenient. One person monitors a dashboard tracking 40 agents running tasks they do not fully understand.
We are building a tool that provides feedback on your numbers, helps you and your finance team make better financial decisions, and supports you in talking to investors and stakeholders. It's like having a full time CFO for a fraction of the price.
If you run a business I d love your input. Got 2 mins for a survey? https://forms.gle/wk6kjZEdwdkpwuJW6
Sometimes it s not the big features but those tiny thoughtful touches that show a product team really cares. For me, it was when Notion let me paste a URL and immediately convert it into a card. What was it for you?
