Congrats on the launch! Very exciting!

You guys are operating in a very competitive space. This stuff is fun to build, so a lot of engineers will end up building it. Not to discourage you, but I suspect it will be difficult to capture much value selling this offering as its going to be race to the bottom against very well funded alternatives that can sell these features at a loss in order to get you to use their databases and other offerings that are higher margin and stickier.

As you guys learn more about how to take this sort of technology to market, you may consider trying to get closer to the actual work that people actually need these agents to do. What can you do better because you have this technology? For example, I work in healthcare administration and we have built our own agent sandbox infrastructure on top of firecracker microvms that solve similar use cases as Agent37. We will never sell it. It's part of our competitive advantage for doing healthcare tasks.

Food for thought! Good luck!

Thank you ! And agreed, it's an extremely competitive space. In our YC batch alone there's probably 5+ companies doing something similar. Interestingly enough though atleast for now we're all rapidly growing, so that's promising.

But eventually I see us all moving in slightly different spaces as we specialize.

Great to hear you are growing! Take this as you might grains of salt.

The promise of really cheap AI sounds amazing and is amazing. People will happily accept and engage with "free stuff"; but, I presume you are not starting a business to give away free stuff. Unless you have some model that let's you capture value some other way. e.g. Meta just gave everyone a small computer for free with Muse. Or have some sustainable price advantage on the underlying compute e.g. you are nvidia and make it yourself at scale.

I think you deserve to be compensated for your work! It's hard to make a sustainable business when selling something that costs $5 a month to developers (just seeing your calculator). There aren't that many of us, and AWS/GCP/Azure/Cloudflare have our credit cards already. If it were me, I'd be trying to figure out how to charge more and sell the value of the work you are enabling your customers to accomplish, not the cost of the underlying electrons.

Keep it up!

		thank you, yeah we still have a lot to figure out.
