Great to be at @Tessl_io & Bond AI’s "AI ROI" event! My takeaways: - ROI needs proxy metrics & continuous multi-dim evals - Agents have blindspots, so deep, timely data access & quality are non-negotiable Thank you @SammyHep, @theaievangelist and the rest of the team!

We've been busy here at @tessl_io, working on Spec-Driven Development. Some BIG news: We're announcing the release of two new products from Tessl tessl.io/blog/announcing-tes… The π“πžπ¬π¬π₯ π…π«πšπ¦πžπ°π¨π«π€: makes agents capture intent in specs before coding, aligning you and the agent on what to build. This truly keeps agents on the rails - It’s available in private beta - ask for access on the site: tessl.io/ The π“πžπ¬π¬π₯ π’π©πžπœ π‘πžπ π’π¬π­π«π²: helps agents use open source better. A registry of over 10,000 usage specs that guide agents in application development. It’s in open beta and free to use - check it out: tessl.io/registry It's been such a fun journey already, just to get to beta, with the best team I've ever worked with. Super excited sharing our products with the community so we can build in the open! Want to see it in action? Here's @bgalbs showing off the products!
