motion and atria are dead. Already have paid customers using this. DM for the details.
Motion is now $999 per MONTH? And that's just the starter plan! Good grief. Who is vibe-coding Motion?

"checks with you before it acts" is the part that matters. the jump from chatbot to teammate isn't a smarter model, it's knowing when to just handle it and when to ask first
We’re opening a research preview of Claude Duet, a new app where Claude works as a proactive agent. It comes to you with what needs your attention, completes tasks you ask of it, keeps working when you step away, and checks with you before it acts on your behalf.

Google just launched a free 1-hour course on agentic engineering from scratch: "You don't need a bigger model. You need memory, patterns and a loop." 99% of people deploy one agent, watch it forget everything between runs, and blame the model. The 1% give it memory, a design pattern and a loop that keeps going. That's not a skill gap - that's a stack gap, and it takes one evening to close. Agent → Memory → Design Patterns → MCP → Agentic Loops • 00:00 - how to deploy your first AI agent • 22:10 - build agent memory (short, persistent, long) • 42:18 - advanced AI agent design patterns • 50:18 - how to build MCP (MCP vs API) • 1:10:40 - agentic loops and long-running agents Research → Build → Launch → Improve This 1-hour video will replace 10 paid courses on agentic engineering. Watch it today, then read how to build a self-improving agentic system in the article below ↓

most cold emails don't die because of bad copy. they die because nobody sends email #2. from what we see building foxreach, a big chunk of replies come from the follow-ups, not the first touch. write a decent first line, then actually follow up. that's most of the game

the fix isn't "no ai", it's "no ai pretending to be you". use it to research the person. then write the 3 sentences yourself. if you can't be bothered to write 3 sentences, don't send the email
1. A student from Waterloo emailed me asking for advice 2. Replied 3. Got an AI-generated reply, very clearly templated 4. Looked back: the original email was probably AI-written 5. This is how you wreck cold email for everyone else, even from univesity domains Dead internet

this is the pattern that wins for agents. let it do the boring 90% on its own, human taps approve on anything you can't undo. full autonomy demos look cool. approval buttons are what people actually trust
1/ Starting today you can take actions on your @Mercury business and personal accounts right from your agent (ChatGPT/Claude/etc) via the MCP. Our MCP already let you ask questions about your accounts.* Now it can move money too (with your approval).
