⚡ If you’ve been waiting for AI to actually do the work, read this.
You've seen the AI demos. Viktor does it without you watching.
The AI tool you tried last quarter waited for a prompt, hallucinated a number, then asked if you'd like a summary.
Viktor opened a PR at 2am, rebased it against main, ran your test suite, and posted a note in #eng: "Two flaky tests in payments service, both pre-existing. Recommended merging after fixing them." Then drafted the customer reply for the support ticket the bug created.
That's 619K autonomous actions per day across 20,000+ teams. Not chat replies. Real work shipped to GitHub, Stripe, Linear, Notion, and 3,000+ other tools, from inside Slack and Microsoft Teams.
You don't supervise him any more than you supervise a senior engineer.
SOC 2 certified. Your data never trains models.
"It's what you probably originally thought AI was going to be when you first heard of it in sci-fi movies." Tyler, CEO.
LATEST AI NEWS
AMAZON & ANTHROPIC
Amazon is changing how it pays for Anthropic’s AI, moving from compute-hour pricing to token-based billing as AI costs continue to surge.
The Details:
Amazon’s deal with Anthropic will switch from compute-hour billing to token-based pricing starting next year.
Under the new model, Amazon pays based on the number of input and output tokens processed by Claude instead of server time.
Reports suggest the change could increase Amazon’s AI costs, especially as Claude usage continues to grow.
Amazon has disputed claims that the revised agreement will significantly raise its overall costs.
The company is reportedly evaluating alternative AI models, including its own Nova models, to reduce dependence on Anthropic.
The pricing shift follows Amazon’s expanded multibillion-dollar partnership with Anthropic to power Claude on AWS.
The move reflects a broader industry trend as frontier AI providers shift enterprise customers toward usage-based pricing.
Why it matters:
The era of flat-rate AI is fading. As companies deploy more AI agents and consume billions of tokens, usage-based pricing is becoming the new standard, putting growing pressure on enterprise AI budgets.
ANTHROPIC
Anthropic has begun restoring access to Claude Mythos 5, but only a small group of trusted organizations can use the model after U.S. restrictions were partially lifted.
The Details:
The U.S. government has approved limited access to Claude Mythos 5 after previously suspending the model over national security concerns.
Access is restricted to around 100 approved organizations, including critical infrastructure operators and cybersecurity partners.
The broader export restrictions remain in place, meaning most developers and businesses still cannot use Mythos 5.
Anthropic is working with U.S. officials to gradually expand access while strengthening security safeguards.
Claude Fable 5, Anthropic’s public-facing model, remains unavailable as regulators continue their review.
The government says future access will depend on ongoing security assessments and could change if new risks emerge.
Why it matters:
The world’s most advanced AI models are increasingly being treated like strategic technology. Instead of open releases, access is becoming restricted to trusted organizations, signaling a new era of government oversight for frontier AI.
Google has transformed AI Studio from a model playground into a full app-building platform, allowing users to create complete web and Android apps with a single prompt.
The Details:
Users can describe an idea in plain English, and AI Studio generates a complete full-stack web app with frontend and backend code.
It can also build native Android apps using Kotlin and Jetpack Compose directly in the browser.
A built-in Android emulator lets developers preview, test, and interact with apps instantly without installing Android Studio.
Developers can edit apps through natural language, export projects to GitHub, or continue development in Android Studio.
Apps can be deployed directly to Google Cloud Run or published to Google Play’s Internal Test Track with minimal setup.
The platform is powered by Gemini and targets both experienced developers and first-time builders.
Why it matters:
Google AI Studio is evolving into a complete AI development environment. Instead of just generating code, it now helps users go from an idea to a working, deployable application in minutes, dramatically lowering the barrier to software development.
