6 months ago, we forked a coding tool and everyone called it a "scam"
Today, we're the #1 agentic coding platform, processing more code than any public platform in history
Here's how we did the impossible 🧵
Curious about all the fun things and real(or totally convincing fake) news for devs this week? @WeAreDevs just had me on for their live show: youtube.com/live/EjHMWLgPZfE…

Calling @rrweb_io users! We're looking for pilot customers to help co-develop an rrweb backend we wished existed when we started building our rrweb backends years ago.
🧵👇
I'm getting together with another rrweb core team member @eoghanomurray to build yet another rrweb backend. We've built them in the past, but this time we're building one that anyone will be able to use.
We want to co-develop this together with a number of pilot customers before we open it up to rest of the world.
DM me if you are interested, I'd love to chat with you!
6 months ago I founded @kilocode to empower developers to pick the best model for the task at hand. We launched our application within a month and have since grown to become the best AI coding orchestration application. Over the last 5 months token usage has grown 1000x, from 4 billion to 4 trillion tokens a month! In September Grok Code Fast was responsible for 46% of those tokens despite only launching 4 days before the month started.

Personal cost was real though.
7am-11pm days. Taking calls while cycling through Amsterdam. Juggling school runs with team meetings.
After 6 months of this pace, it's time for me to step back.
But @Kilo_Code's story is just beginning. From "scam" to market leader in 6 months. From fork to open source powerhouse. Thank you to everyone who believed when others doubted.
