I had the worst pitch meeting with a VC: @madelinelawren
She said no to our pre-seed, “you’re wearing the jerseys, but you're not a team yet”
Anyways, she’s now officially our CGO and late co-founder
Spent the last 2 days playing with GraphRAG on the Apollo 11 transcripts 🚀🌕

🧱 Structure upfront > clever prompts
🔗 Entities + relations > loose chunks
👍 Nova 2 embeddings are pretty nice
Organise for retrieval. That’s the real win 🎯
Updated my AWS AgentCore repo with a Memory object medium.com/@pjcr/adding-memo… / github.com/PieterjanCriel/ag…
linkedin.com/posts/pieterjan… — we’ve added some new features in Fence LLM
📣 New Post; medium.com/@pjcr/what-makes-…
Building an AI product isn't about chasing the biggest model. 🧠 It's about building a robust system around it.
Most AI features fail not because the model is "weak," but because the foundations are fragile. 💔
Fence 🤺 has support for MCP servers since a few weeks! We've made a short article on how to use it (in combination with e.g. Agent side tools) as a part II in the series on building AI agents with Fence on top of AWS Lambda and Dynamo.

New article! “Fence Meets AgentCore: A Minimalist Framework Goes Enterprise-Grade on AWS”. If you’re building agents, check it out! pjcr.medium.com/c81edf947ff0
Fence-LLM is in the majors! pypi.org/project/fence-llm/ (1.0.4) -- We started some articles to help you ship Fence Agents in production! (Fully Serverless)

Part 1: define and deploy
Already on main, soon in the release; We've added support for @MistralAI 🇫🇷🇪🇺models / embeddings in Fence🤺!
