Bending Spoons is the most interesting software company in Italy and most people using their apps have never heard of them.

I have been running Treendly since 2019.

Every few weeks someone asks me how I get customers.

A week ago I wrote about pulling every trackable signal from my life into one SQLite file and computing a pairwise Pearson correlation matrix over the last ninety days.

For about two years I have been quietly piping every trackable signal from my life into one SQLite file.

Email is the tax you pay for running a company.

At AI week, Gian Segato from Anthropic said something offhand that I have not been able to put down.

This is the first post in a series about FlatNine Intelligence, a platform I have been building to read the world at macro scale.

A few days ago I posted this: Basically every person that ever messages me for a bit now gets profiled so I can improve how I can talk with them. 👀 The replies split neatly into two camps: "this is genius" and "this is deeply unsettling."

I run multiple products.

If Google links websites, what links AI agents?

Every AI agent system I have seen works the same way.

Most AI agent systems have a fatal flaw: the human is the bottleneck.

I've been building an AI agent system called FlatNine Ensemble, a team of 20 specialized AI agents that run my business and personal life 24/7.

Running 18 AI agents across an organization sounds impressive until you ask: how do you know they are doing a good job?

Most AI agents sit idle until you talk to them.

Most AI assistants forget you the moment the conversation ends.

Most agent frameworks today are just corporate org charts with an API layer on top.

Here is a formula for work: $$t_w = t_{exec} + \frac{n_h(n_h - 1)}{2} \cdot \frac{\tau}{\phi}$$ Most people have never seen this written down.

SaaS was built on a lie we all accepted because there was no alternative.

Every AI agent framework today is obsessed with doing.

Folks, as you know I currently run a human-free business.
