The programmers, they argue, are going to continuously become builders and operators of AI agents.

According to Liu, he said, our goal is to be the platform the next generation of developers grows up on.

Anyways, this is a really interesting company, so I was happy to give them a little bit of a

highlight.

I'm super impressed by their bootstrapped approach.

I think we're going to see a lot of these companies where startup founders are going to bootstrap for as long as they possibly can before they go and try to raise VC money.

And I think VCs honestly prefer a situation like that where they can see a company that has awesome traction.

They've got a lot of users, they have an awesome product, and then they'll be able to jump in and make an investment and help grow the company.

I think the older model that we saw in the past was more someone had an idea,

they got funded, and then it was very risky whether it would actually be successful or not.

Today, I think we're seeing more investments going into companies, obviously, all of the huge hyperscalers, all the big companies, those ones are getting, you know, huge rounds, but there are still a lot of new startups that are getting money.

And usually, that's when they're able to show that they have strong product market fit growth, and a lot of users right off the bat that are using them, those are the ones that will get the VC dollars.

And that just is, you know, essentially there to help

expand, um, and kind of expedite what's already happening.

Not like, Hey, we need money so that we can make a company and grow.

I think it's so easy to build software today.

And I know so easy as a lot of people will be raging at me for saying that case, not so easy.

It is way more accessible to build software today than it has been in the past.

And because of that, we're seeing a lot more software come out, whether it's better or not.

I mean, you guys can argue about that.
