Ambitious people need unreasonably powerful platforms. Hybrid architecture makes that a reality. This is the next phase of Attio:

3d on the web isn't new but generating 3d models is getting so easy that i think we'll see a lot more of it. there's not a huge amount of product-page work to learn from yet so we could be looking towards games for inspiration

one of the best uses i've found for dialkit is this graph plotter for moving these points of interest which genuinely would have been a nightmare to do manually for each layer

A new type of user requires a new type of architecture. Legacy software wasn't built for agents and now they're breaking it. Today, we're launching the next generation of our platform powered by a hybrid architecture. Building this has been the most ambitious and challenging engineering challenge of my career. Attio now supports SQL - offering a PostgreSQL compatible connector and syntax that allows our customers and their agents to query all of their data like a database. It's transactionally consistent, horizontally scalable and allows agents to access the full context they require using a language and syntax that they're well trained on using. Whether you're accessing your data through our UI, our API, our MCP server or now our SQL Data Connectors: your team and your agents get the full context, every time.

In the age of agents, systems of record have never mattered more. They’ve also never been less prepared for what’s coming. Today, we’re announcing @attio's hybrid architecture, with the controls of application software at the scale of infrastructure. To agents, Attio looks like a database, queryable in SQL - a language they're RL’d on. Unlike a database, the business logic, policies, and compliance sit behind the query. This makes all of Attio’s data accessible by agents in the most powerful and flexible syntax. It gives GTM teams an order of magnitude more value from their time, with the full power of agents working across the entire customer lifecycle. A new shape of software is here. attio.ai/architecture

as AI does more for us, i feel like we could see a return to primitive generalist roles like a bard, artificer or oracle which encompass much larger spaces where being deeply specialised doesn't make as much sense
