"Is it just a wrapper?"
To avoid this trap, we focus on Deep Memory at SAAGA. The value isn't the text generation - it's the context retention across weeks of work.
An LLM gives answers. A product remembers them.

We asked our product what it needed to improve. It gave us a list of APIs and bug fixes we missed.
We are moving from "automated testing" to "autonomous self-improvement." The software is starting to talk back. And it’s right.

Current AI tools give you homework. "Fix this tag." "Change this header." We’re building agents that just do it for you. The jump from Analysis to Execution is the only metric that matters. #AI #automation #product

I tell my developers: "If you can't say no to a stakeholder, tell them you have to ask me first."
Leadership is often just acting as a shield.
I’ll take the heat for saying "No" so my team can keep their focus on the "Yes."

JB, our DevOps head, just removed write permissions on our containers. Containers are short-lived; nothing should be written to them. It’s a simple change that kills a dozen security risks instantly. Make your infra immutable.

"MVP" isn't an excuse for bad design.
These days, especially when everyone can use Claude Code to speed up development, it's expected that the quality will be at the next level on day one! 🔥

We are moving our AI agents into separate microservices.
The "monolith MVP" served its purpose. But to scale, we need separation of concerns.
Pay your technical debt now, or it will bankrupt your velocity later.

Make your frontend components "dumb" and your state management "smart."
By isolating business logic from UI, we share 100% of the core code between Web and Mobile apps. If one breaks, they all break. Fail fast, fix once, deploy everywhere.

Don't just build a monolith. Build a portfolio of primitives.
We separated our Memory, Tools, and Agents into distinct services. We use them together, but we can sell them apart. Decoupled architecture = diversified revenue streams.

Complex S3 sync system for versioning our AI agents..? Let's just use a DB for now.
Complexity feels like "real work," but it's usually just procrastination.
If a database table solves it, don't build a distributed file system.

We don't use Serverless for everything.
For AI agents? Yes. Infinite scale. For billing checks? No. Cold starts kill performance on high-frequency loops.
Architecture is about context, not trends. Match the infrastructure to the specific traffic pattern.

We used our own tool to analyze raw HTML schema. It found bugs humans missed.
The goal isn't just detection. It's repair. We are building the loop to let the AI fix the issues it finds.
Don't just automate the work. Automate the expertise.

We are pouring concrete into the #backend. We are focusing on speed. Reliability. The "boring" infrastructure that ensures the system doesn't collapse when five hundred people try to use it at once. If the #system fails there, it is a disaster. I am bringing that same discipline

We're moving fast on our new AI platform. But recently, a good chunk of our engineering stand-up wasn't about the shiny AI agents. It was about Redis caching, AWS Security Hub, and cleaning up environment variables.
It’s tempting to focus only on the features that users see...

The vision we are executing is an ecosystem of AI agents. SEO, marketing, HR. But getting them to play nice is harder than it looks. We just had to refactor how our agent billing handles organization-wide limits.
