Introducing flow-1, our new model trained with RL to find errors in agent traces.
It matches GPT-6-sol in trace intelligence while being 23x cheaper. It also costs 25% less to run than GPT-6-luna.
flow-1 finally makes it possible to monitor and understand every agent run, without sampling. 1/6
We have ample evidence that AI can dramatically increase software _velocity_, but what happens when we have AI focus on dramatically increasing software _quality_?
@danlovesproofs and [excellent] team at Detail are announcing what they've built today... have a look below.

I'm excited to share that Brev.io has raised a $3.3M pre-seed round, led by @ResoluteVC to build the AI-native layer between business goals and work.
Most AI today is doing execution work in a vacuum. Without your goals, metrics, and live progress in the context window, you get motion without alignment -- it's the missing link in a lot of AI deployments right now.
As AI drives down the cost of execution, the bottleneck shifts to strategy, coordination, and alignment.
That’s the gap we’re building Brev to close.

AI is granting us superpowers, but it's boxing us out of the creative work that many of us find the most personally fulfilling.

We had a chat with @el_bhs, co-founder of @opentelemetry, about leading the industry to a brighter future with open source.
Prior to OTel, observability required custom agents. OTel is leading the way toward a common instrumentation standard.

I really enjoyed this conversation with @dymxzvf the other day... we covered a lot of ground, including the early days of observability for distributed systems at Google, the best levers for AI in observability, the elephants in the room for TCO+ROI, etc. Worth a listen!
🎧 something to add to your playlist this weekend - @el_bhs and I had a great time chatting about o11y, AI, cost optimizations in the very first episode of my podcast 👇

New video! What about #observability for OSS? How should you use @opentelemetry to instrument a shared library? Plus some best design practices for writing stable software and backwards compatibility.
Agree? Disagree? Let me know what you think. :)

I'm a big fan of the people and the overall approach at @momentohq -- moving more heavy-duty infra problems into specialized, fit-for-purpose solutions that improve performance, reduce risk, *and* reduce cost.
(Congrats, @dymxzvf and @ksshams!)
Momento is officially out of stealth and our #Serverless Cache is GA! @dymxzvf have been hard at work with the entire @momentohq family. We are now deployed in mission-critical production workloads for multiple large-scale customers. Onwards!

Today we launched Lightstep UQL (Unified Query Language)! As #observability shifts left, UQL helps #DevOps teams ensure #Kubernetes and other cloud-native applications are natively observable.

Here's a stand-alone copy of the Golang auto-scaling @opentelemetry base-2 exponential histogram github.com/lightstep/go-expo… mapping and data structure. 100% of @LightstepHQ Go services are using this in production.
