Today, we’re introducing the next AI interface for business: a team.

Shipper Agents are the executive partner you birth. They each have a name, a top 1% skill, and mission that you create. And they enable an entire new way to do engineering, sales, marketing, ops, and design.

RIP hiring. It’s time to meet your employees.
