Zapier CEO @wadefoster says remote companies have an advantage in the AI era, becuase "every last bit of work exhaust is documented," which supercharges internal AI and accelerates people's work: "All our stuff is inside Slack. All our meetings are recorded. Every last inch of work that happens, there is a written trace of that." "So we can put chatbots on top of that, and that creates a whole bunch of institutional knowledge that accelerates the work." "So a new person coming in can literally figure out, 'Is there a standard operating procedure for this?' And you don't have to go chase people down in offices and sort of hope the campfire wisdom finds you." "Remote companies have a big advantage because they do tend to have so much work that leaves a digital exhaust." From his appearance on the show in April.

Zap is shutting down on June 1. Last year, we set out to build an app that would let anyone sign up and buy their first memecoin all in under 30 seconds. We achieved that, but we didn't see the traction we had hoped for. Although this is not the ending we wanted, we are incredibly grateful to everyone who trusted Zap and supported us along the way. Before Zap shuts down on June 1, we strongly recommend signing in to your Zap account and exporting your private key: Settings → Export Private Key We recommend importing your private key into @phantom, where you will be able to continue accessing all of your assets. We will be releasing a support article with detailed steps on how to do this in the coming days. Please remember that anyone with access to your private key can fully control your assets. Never share your private key with anyone. After June 1, users who have not yet exported their private keys will still be able to access their funds safely through @privy_io Home.

🔥Frank Zappa was decades ahead of his time. He said this in 1981: "Schools train people to be ignorant. They give you the equipment that you need to be a functional ignoramus." "They prepare you to be a usable victim for a military industrial complex that needs manpower." "As long as you're just smart enough to do a job, and just dumb enough to swallow what they feed you, you're going to be alright." "Schools mechanically and very specifically try and breed out any hint of creative thought in the kids that are coming up." FOLLOW ME, THE NEXT DROP WILL BE SHOCKING.

we reverse engineered how zapier became the #1# recommended automation tool in AI search 22% citation share. more than n8n and make combined. everyone talks about their google SEO (9M+ monthly visits). but heres what actually makes them win in AI search: > a dedicated page for every app integration combo. "connect gmail to slack." "connect stripe to airtable." 8,000+ apps means thousands of pages. when someone asks chatgpt "how do i automatically send form submissions to a google sheet and slack" zapier has an exact page for that. > they were first to frame automation as AI agents. zapier now leads with "AI agents and chatbots" not just "connect apps." when someone asks "tool to build AI agents that can use my existing apps" zapier gets cited #1#. > comparison pages they wrote first and control. "zapier vs make vs n8n" — they wrote it, they rank, they get cited on both chatgpt and gemini. > they turned integrations into a content moat. every new app that joins = hundreds of new pages = hundreds of new queries they can get cited on. chatgpt cited them on 6 out of 18 prompts. gemini on 3 out of 17. the playbook: they didnt just build the most integrations. they made sure every integration had a page the AI could cite. 8,000 integrations = 8,000 answers to questions ppl ask chatgpt.
