About briandoll

Co-founder of Reify, helping companies sell more software.

I'm a story-driven marketer, a technology-infused strategist, and an entrepreneurial executive.

Having built and sold things online since the mid-nineties, I've held leadership positions in both business and technical roles in the software, eCommerce, and financial services industries. I'm most happy when every day includes an equal dose of learning, shipping, and laughs.

    Daemons are autonomous. From the site: > Daemons are self-initiated — they observe the environment, detect drift, and act without a prompt.

    This is the first live launch I've seen on TV (well, YouTube in this case) since the Challenger disaster. Was a nice relief to see this one go so smoothly.

    Love this. This enables the split many of us have been aiming for - fully autonomous workflows for repeatable tasks that are reasonable to spec out and set-and-forget, and the more…

    Being able to codify these important-but-often-forgotten workflows in such a way that you can set-it-and-forget-it and keep shipping at multi-agent speed is pretty dope.

    The biggest value IMHO of OpenClaw is that it's in the Apple ecosystem, so it leverages Reminders, iCloud sync for Obsidian values, etc., so not having a Mac option is pretty limit…

    The fact that this took SO LONG to come out after their PR crisis on this topic is more problematic than the claims themselves

    This reminds me of the time that Ripple launched a marketing promotion, giving developers some amount of Ripple to encourage micropayments. They defined "developer" as "someone who…

    After a day of trialing many apps, briefly settling on Gmail (iOS, and Unite to make a desktop app), I'm pretty happy with Spark for MacOS and iOS.
