The way you manage agents on the Sierra platform has evolved from signing into Sierra to engaging with Ghostwriter in Slack. The first time Ghostwriter proactively @-mentions you when it notices an issue or suggests running an A/B test you hadn't thought of, it changes your conception of how enterprise software should work. Really proud of the team that built this nitter.cf/btaylor/status/2104657…

Since its origins at Palantir, the term "Forward Deployed Engineer" has described wildly different jobs, yet today it's one of the fastest-growing roles in AI. Check out @natalie_meurer, Head of Agent Engineering at Sierra, at the AI Engineer World's Fair for a historical tour of one of tech's most misunderstood roles, and why its biggest contradiction may explain where the industry is headed next. 🕐Tuesday, June 30 @ 1:30pm | 📍Moscone West, Room 2020

I’m excited to announce that Sierra has acquired Opera Tech in Japan. Opera’s co-founders, Keita Morikawa and Kiyo Kunii, started the company with the simple idea that AI could help businesses deliver high-quality customer experiences at scale. We’re so excited to have them join us to lead Sierra in Japan. sierra.ai/blog/sierra-acquir…

👻 We're launching Ghostwriter today! 👻 After spending the past 2+ years building agents by hand, I think this is as big a deal for agent building as Codex and Claude Code are for software engineering. Check out Bret's demo! 👇
Today, Sierra is releasing Ghostwriter, our agent for building agents. With Ghostwriter, you can create an AI agent for your customer experience — one that can chat, pick up the phone, speak dozens of languages, take action on your systems of record, and be protected with industry-leading guardrails — simply by having a conversation. No clicking, no forms, no menus. Codex and Claude Code have transformed how we build software, making it possible for software engineers to orchestrate and review the work rather than doing all the work themselves. We think the same transformation will happen for all software. Rather than every enterprise app having a web app for humans and an API for automation, every software platform’s UI will be an agent that can do the work on your behalf. I recorded a demo of my building and optimizing an agent with Ghostwriter so you can see how powerful and easy it is to use. It’s completely changed the way our early adopters build agents, and it’s changed the way I think about the software industry. Let me know what you think, and, if you’re interested in trying it out at your business, please reach out directly.

The atomic unit of customer experience is no longer a conversation, it's a relationship. This year, our customers didn't just see that shift—they led it.

Chat AI? Delightful. Call customer service and get a phone tree? The worst. Product Manager @zackrw explains how Sierra is changing that. 🎥 See how in this Q&A. youtube.com/watch?v=KbfSYdns…

Remember "m-dot" mobile sites (like m.company.com)? Now, websites are responsive, adapting to screen size & device. We applied this concept to Agent OS: no matter how customers reach out—phone, chat, email, or text—Sierra agents are always responsive & ready to help.
Build once. Deploy everywhere. From chat to voice to email, Sierra agents adapt to every channel your customers use. 🎥 Our Product Manager, @zackrw, explains how in this quick Q&A: youtube.com/watch?v=TDmgGXbU…

Nobody likes waiting on hold, but companies don't like putting you on hold either. Now they can pick up the phone right away, every time.
Today we're excited to announce a new way to interact with Sierra agents: voice. Learn more about how this new capability is transforming customer interactions in our latest blog post.: sierra.ai/blog/sierra-speaks
