At every internship he had, @BrendanFalk found the smartest person in the room and asked them the same question: why don't you just leave and start a company?
He still can't fathom the answer. Brendan founded Fig, sold it to AWS in 2023, and now runs @usehercules. He says starting companies is stressful, "like eating glass," and still the most fun thing he's ever done.

who would have thought that agents going brrr would result in a customized pig inventory system for a restaurant owner

“I don't understand people who don't want to start companies." - @BrendanFalk
Brendan Falk is the co-founder of Fig (acquired by AWS) and @UseHercules, an AI app builder used by >100k businesses. He sat down with Codeship co-founder @moritzplassnig to talk about the instinct to build and the series of bets that took him here. Coming soon to codeship.com.

The factory needs to validate if the intent was accomplished
I keep getting pitched “software factories” that are basically coding agents.
Guys. That’s a code factory.
I don’t care how many agents you have. Did your company get smarter? Did sales get better? Did finance make a better decision? Did someone build something that never would have made the engineering queue?
If not, you may just have a very expensive way to make more stuff.
