The easiest way to create custom AI agents. Create agents, give them event-based triggers, integrate them with 3,000+ apps, and publish them to the Lindy Store.
It's been awesome to observe the development of Lindy over the past year — and of course, I'm biased since Flo and I overlapped at Uber — but in terms of agent orchestration, Lindy is definitely worth checking out!
I know Flo from when we had competing remote work startups, and I've been really excited to see this next play.
@altimor it looks like you've added a lot of thoughtful UI to the process of creating agents. Have you found any general principles to navigate when to add UI and when to keep things more free-form? Or is the answer just...test, test, test?
@rajiv_ayyangar so far the most pithy rule I've found is "chat is a chisel, UI is a sandpaper." Chat and natural language are an easy way to narrow in quickly in a huge space of possible tasks ("I want to edit a video please").
But once you're there, you really do need custom UIs (e.g. in this case of video-editing, a scrubber) to make fine-grained adjustments.
@altimor another reason I like that analogy is that when you’re chiseling a rock you have to have an idea of what you’re going for. (Not a ton of affordances). Whereas w sandpaper you can already see mostly what’s taking shape.
I remember seeing the teaser video for Lindy a while back. Very compelling.
What's been the biggest surprise or learning so far, @suneric and @altimor?
@suneric@rrhoover Biggest surprise has been how goddamn hard this has been to build — who would have thought building AGI would be difficult?
Seriously, we've really had to refine our intuitions on the kind of idea that's mature enough to be production-ready now, and what's still too "research-y." Agents and cognitive architectures are still a field of active research, and it's very easy to go down crazy rabbit holes.
Congrats on the launch! This looks extremely interesting! How did you manage to integrate with platforms such as LinkedIn and Instagram? Would I be able to get Lindy to create agents to control certain actions on these platforms?
@soumilrathi Good question! We don't yet integrate with these platforms, at least not directly (you can use the PeopleDataLabs too to find people on LinkedIn).
One of the biggest updates I'm most excited for this year is for Lindy to be able to manipulate a computer / web browser directly — at which point she will be able to access these platforms!
After using Lindy, it feels like the swiss army tool used to use AI agents. It is simple enough for anyone to understand but powerful/flexible enough to adapt it to many different use cases.
If LLMs are contractors/advisors that help you work better and faster, Lindy is the chief of staff/assistant who keeps running everything on the backend and keeping you free for the annoying tasks
Congrats on the launch!
@daniel_martinez19 thanks Daniel! I wouldn't worry about the cost — in my experience the $29 / month plan is more than enough for individual use. And models are obviously constant getting cheaper.
Congratulations on the launch! This sounds amazing and incredibly useful for streamlining tasks. Can't wait to see what kinds of AI agents I can create to simplify my workflow. Cheers to the Lindy! 🚀
Love Lindy. There are a bunch of pre-built Lindies in the Lindy Store to check out / remix for your purposes, and it's very easy (and fun) to build one from scratch.
Feels like magic to use!
