Hear from the best PE operators at the "Creating Operating Leverage with AI" panel during Boston Tech Week. We are hosting an exclusive panel and networking mixer, presented by @a16z featuring PE operating partners discussing AI value creation. Our own Vir Kashyap moderates alongside Emily A. Chien, Executive Fellow at @HarvardHBS and former @IBM AI Global Offering & Partnerships Leader, and Ritwick Rane, Chief Transformation Officer at @PDCBRANDS, who has lived the AI-driven business transformation from within a PE-backed company firsthand. Excited to host this event on May 28th at @tishmanspeyer 's beautiful ZO Clubhouse, and a huge thank you to Studio by Tishman Speyer for partnering with us on this event! Thursday, May 28 | 4:30pm – 6:30pm | Boston Tech Week 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗴𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿: partiful.com/e/NhYybMjJl8DuH… This event is part of #BOSTechWeek, a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗛𝗔𝗖𝗞𝗔𝗧𝗛𝗢𝗡 𝗜𝗦 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗩𝗜𝗘𝗪. Read that again. InstaLILY AI is cracking open Mission Rock on February 28th with the SHIP THE SYSTEM Hackathon, with our friends at Google DeepMind, in our launching San Francisco AI Founding Residency. Prove your worth and get hired on the spot. This is a one-day sprint to build and deploy AI systems that move the real world. We're talking SLM, autonomous agent architectures, and your wildest Edge-Native ideas. The execution is yours to own! Build for the builders of the physical economy, the ones moving warehouses, utilities, and supply chains with code that ships compared to demos that stall. 𝗠𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗥𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻.

We just had a short write-up published by @GoogleDeepMind on our work @InstalilyAI. What I appreciated about the piece is that it captures something we spend a lot of time explaining in conversations, but rarely see written down clearly. #AI-native systems are fundamentally different from #SaaS systems. In a SaaS world, new outcomes usually mean new rules, new workflows, or custom logic. In an AI-native system, new outcomes should come from the same architecture learning from new context. Different use cases, yet all powered by: - The same connector layer into systems of record. - The same editable enterprise-memory layer, InstaBrain™, which captures tribal knowledge and produces a vertical-specific SLM. - The same orchestrated agent layer that executes work in a governed, repeatable way. What changes is the context and the learning, not the code. Google’s team captured this distinction well in the post. If you’re thinking seriously about what “AI-native” actually means in production, it’s worth a read. Thanks to the @GoogleDeepMind team and Matt Ridenour, @OfficialLoganK , Paige Bailey, @ammaar, Erchit Sood PMP for the opportunity to share how our unique architecture is creating real impact in #VerticalAI. #InstaLILYAI #GoogleDeepMind @sumantro_das

How MCP works, explained on a whiteboard. Welcome to a new series where our engineers break down the concepts they're building with, starting with Model Context Protocol (MCP), explained by one of our founding engineers Logan Ge on a whiteboard with a marker in hand. No rehearsal: just clear thinking made visible. At @InstalilyAI , our engineers are constantly absorbing, connecting, and teaching because that's what keeps us sharp, and we invite you into that process. We're making these explainers because we believe the best way to lead in AI is to teach what we know. Whether you're working with AI or just trying to understand it, this is for you. Time to lock in on MCP with Logan. @ashahnet @sumantro_das #InstaLILYAI #MCP

Not on the roadmap, but core to the company. Last week, on a snowy December evening, genuine laughter was deployed office-wide. We played White Elephant (competitive, as expected), battled through Kahoot questions about each other, exchanged gifts and warm words. The video captures it better than words ever can: real moments, camaraderie, and the excitement in every smile for what's waiting ahead. To everyone who celebrated with us: thank you for being part of this. Your support doesn't go unnoticed. Endless gratitude to this team! #InstaLILYAI @ashahnet @sumantro_das

AI is not going to take over humans. Humans will take over AI and become Superhuman.

Stop calling it a Co-Pilot. I want the plane to fly itself. Most AI tools generate content. They summarize meetings or draft emails. They speed up quick tasks while you sit in the passenger seat. At @InstalilyAI , we generate throughput. Our agents log into SAP update Salesforce , and resolve tickets in Zendesk. If the system is not performing an action inside your system of record, it is not an agent. It is a toy. Measure work completed, not words generated.

AI in practice is all about balance. ⚖️ As Amit Shah (@InstaLILYAI) explained at Creative Connect NYC, creativity is evolving through three layers: activity, behavior, and control. Full panel from our final #CreativeConnect of the year now on demand 🔗 hubs.li/Q03Vpy-q0

I saw smart people trapped in dumb systems. That’s why we built @InstalilyAI I left @1800flowers, to build InstaLILY AI with @sumantro_das after seeing experts spend their time on manual workflows. Data entry replaced judgment. Tribal knowledge stayed in people’s heads. The systems meant to scale the enterprise were slowing it down. In the latest episode of The Product Market Fit with @pablosrugo, I break down the future of work we are building at InstaLILY and the principles shaping that work. My time in complex operational industries revealed: “operator market fit” is equally as important as PMF, one size approach fits none, and humans can do more when freed from legacy systems of record.
