Natural | SWE (Product, Data, Design, Infra, Payments), Product Designer, GTM, more | San Francisco, CA (Onsite)

We're building payment rails for AI agents; fully-owned rails across traditional banking and stablecoins, and the full set of funds flows that AI agents need to transact in the real world with businesses, consumers, and other agents (wallets, pay, request, credit, billing, and more).

We've raised from some of the most well-known operators in fintech & payments to shape how agents interact with the economy, from scratch.

Pocket operator (particularly the KO) is the single thing other than maybe the OP-Z that I think has enough creative utility relative to its price to not feel like glorified furniture.

I enjoyed mine a lot / made a lot with it!

Then you haven't talked to the PMs I've worked with :)

I agree with the premise, but it's quite painful in practice constantly probing and prodding for justification and explanation -- especially because _even with_ the justification, explanation, etc, one's mental map / the "topology" of the thing being built is only very loosely being populated as a result of the conversation. I say this having continuously tried to find a way to keep my learning rate comparable to if I was writing the code myself, and having somewhat failed.

I'm starting to wonder if the thing to address is the anxiety itself rather than the "fuzziness about the code" that creates the anxiety - and more explicitly model myself as an engineering and/or product manager counterpart to these things. I wonder how non-IC EMs/PMs do it - it seems maybe fundamentally anxiety-inducing? – but they _do_ do this already (tolerate the fact that the underlying technical system is not fully within their grasp).

As a hobbyist and indie hacker, love it. As a professional maintainer - it made a dry job dryer, faster.

I was sort of hoping this would be a year-to-date visualization similar to Github profile contribution graphs...

Ramp is (mostly) a Flask monolith with some sprinkles of Elixir at the very edges where sub-second performance matters.
