Starting today, anyone with an email address can have their own AI employee. Free to start. @viktor_com started in Slack. Now Viktor has an email address, so billions of people can reach it. Just email viktor@viktor.com to get started. Put Viktor on cc to book a meeting. Or forward any kind of work.

Crazy! Team wants to know the most important releases. Truth: noone in engineering knows it any more. But @viktor_com does. And he delivers it as VERY sexy videos. Try it, it's wild.

"For anyone of an immigrant background, the question of who they are talking to is absolutely no mystery. They are talking to us; their siblings, parents, cousins and friends. [...] These conversations are about nothing and everything."

I now get the Uber driver's long phone call on a deeper level. A beautifully humanist piece by @NesrineMalik
Cool
@frydwia It's pretty incredible number from both ends - how much achieved how quickly - as well as how much is yet to be achieved. I'll just leave this here :)
Exciting update! We've hit $50M in annualized revenue. After just 7 months! BUT we're not even 0.002% into our mission. We're just getting started.

I'm in SF this week, with 12 people from @viktor_com. Who are the builders and founders I should meet? Tag them.

We made all the possible mistakes as a company. But we haven't made the most important mistake. We haven't died. This is a slide from our deck from 2023. The only difference between us and those competitors now is that we're not dead. Nothing else matters.

Today we're hosting our biggest power user in @viktor_com HQ. He came all the way from the US to Warsaw, Poland. The whole team stopped what they were doing just to listen to him. True customer obsession.

We're building @viktor_com for 2 kinds of companies. 1. The companies of today, which are built around human limitations. The companies with hierarchies and clearly defined scopes. The companies where the agents can't digest everything, due to strict permissions. 2. The companies of tomorrow, built with agents from day one. These companies give the whole company context to agents. Those agents are then way more powerful. I believe that the companies of tomorrow will outgrow the companies of today quite quickly. Interestingly, at @viktor_com we started with a product for the companies of tomorrow. Open by default. Now we're also building for the companies of today.

How we build an AI employee: I believe that today's organizations are built around human limitations. Humans have small context windows. We cannot understand the entire company at once, so we divide work into functions, teams, and roles. We give each person a narrow scope, a manager, a set of permissions, and a small number of systems. Then we build meetings, reports, and hierarchies to move context between people. When you hire a human, giving them a role is necessary. But it is not obvious that agents need to work this way. An agent can potentially understand the customer, the product, the code, the support history, the financial data, and the current priorities at the same time. In an agent-native company, broad context creates leverage. That creates two very different worlds to build for. 1. Meet the world as it is. Existing enterprises were designed for humans. They have roles, permissions, reporting lines, and strict boundaries between teams. The support team can't access the data of the finance team. To enter them, Viktor needs to resemble a human hire – Viktor for Finance, Viktor for Support, Viktor for Marketing – each with its own role and access. It might be the only practical way to bring agents into today's organizations. 2. Build for the world that's coming. The companies of the future might not be divided into departments in the same way. Small companies growing with agents from day one may never need to create the boundaries that large companies now consider obvious. Shared memory will be an advantage. Context will not have to be repeatedly compressed into dashboards. So yes, it makes sense to build for today's organizations because that is where almost all the work, money, and pain currently exist. But it would be short-sighted to let their structure define our product.

The only benchmark we care about is customer ROI. Hard to measure, but important to consider. Revenue retention is a good proxy here. If a customer keeps paying for an expensive product, it means the ROI is there.

Chat is the wrong interface for an AI employee. When we started the company in 2023 and we didn't have a reliably working agent, I ran those fake agent demos where I was giving people a chat UI, promising them an agent that can do anything for them, and asking them what they would do. There was a human on the other side performing the tasks. The result? No one knew what to prompt. It turns out people are not good at coming up with things to automate. Except perhaps some people in San Francisco or those working in revops. Thus, we decided to not build a chat bot. I don't believe in chat interfaces are the future. @viktor_com lives where you work - in your tools - with your other colleagues. Want to speak to your best colleague? Why would we make you switch to another window when that colleague can already be there in Slack?

Engineering roles at @viktor_com are pretty unusual. We have: - Agent Harness Engineers - Agent Platform Engineers - Product Engineers No frontend. No backend. No old-school roles. The lines are very blurry. Most people are just extremely strong generalists.

Excited to welcome @MatlokaM to @viktor_com. Michael was hire #5# at @posthog and is one of the best product engineers I've ever met. Really excited to have him here in Warsaw. A product is a reflection of the people who build it. Another elite builder means even more delight for our users.

Announcing @MattSwulinski as Head of Growth at @viktor_com. Previously Head of Growth at @WisprFlow. Before that, @Superhuman. One of the most AI-native growth operators I’ve met. Very excited to build together.

Introducing Project Deskless. The simplest interface for working with agents. Press a physical button. Say what you want. No looking. No tapping. Driving? Keep your eyes on the road. Enjoy.

Robbie took @NotionHQ, @asana and @Dropbox to market. Then he took a year off, sat with Europe's top VCs, and watched the whole AI market from the investor side. He could have joined any company in the world. We're proud to announce he's joining as CRO. The playbook for taking an AI employee to market doesn't exist yet. It's weird. Huge LTV on SMBs, and volatility all over the place. Nobody has written it. Someone has to. Robbie is that someone. Honored to be building with this guy.
