We recently rebuilt Lessie AI around a different assumption: the primary user is no longer a person clicking through a dashboard, but an agent executing tasks.
Lessie started as a pretty standard SaaS for people discovery and outbound. Search, filter, inspect, export, send emails. It worked, but the interaction model started to feel dated.
The shift isn t just AI inside SaaS. Software is becoming an execution layer for agents.
So we stopped asking how to add AI, and started asking what the product looks like if it s designed for agents first.
We re trying something new on Thursday: Alpha Day.
The idea is simple. If this is the first time you re launching your product anywhere, you can tag it alpha and get a boost to your points (and land on a special leaderboard).
My career is in pipeline inspection. I travel coast to coast working on natural gas infrastructure projects, where documentation has to satisfy DOT / PHMSA regulations and strict company policy.
Years ago, I started building Excel macros just to make my own work tolerable.
