Building autonomous AI agents. Notes from the team building Gravity. AI workflows, the future of recurring work, and what we learn along the way.
Free is the right way to start with AI agents. You should never pay to find out whether an agent saves you time, and in 2026 you do not have to. The catch is that free means three different things, and picking the…

Procurement is two jobs wearing one title. The first is strategic: negotiating with suppliers, designing category strategy, managing risk, and finding savings that move the company's margin. The second is tactical:…

The attachment graveyard is a universal condition. Invoices, signed contracts, receipts, resumes, design files, spreadsheets, all of them arrive as attachments, get glanced at, and then live forever inside the email…

Most teams connect their first agent to Notion in ten minutes, then discover a week later that it either sees the entire workspace or silently reads only the first hundred rows of a database. This guide is the safe…

A small business is not a startup and not a solo hustle. It is an established operation, often two to twenty people, run by an owner who does three jobs before lunch and has no IT department to lean on. That shapes…

Ask any sales rep what they hate most about the job and "updating the CRM" will be near the top of the list. Not the selling, not the calls, not even the rejection. The data entry. The half hour at the end of the day…

Six months in, Gravity is still pre-launch, and that is the honest headline. There are no customers, no revenue, and no growth chart to show. What there is instead is a set of decisions made deliberately and a…

An AI agent helps an IT service desk move from triage to resolution by handling the repetitive parts of every ticket and stopping at the line where judgment and privilege begin. It reads each incoming ticket,…

An AI agent runtime is the software layer that actually executes an agent. The language model decides what to do next; the runtime is what makes it happen. It runs the loop of observing the situation, reasoning about…

There is no single AI agent ROI number you can copy into your business case, and any roundup that hands you one is selling something. The honest version of the evidence is this: where companies concentrate AI on…

As of mid-2026, there is no single AI agent law to comply with; there is a layered landscape you have to navigate at once. The EU AI Act is in phased enforcement, several US states have their own AI rules, the NIST…

Prompt injection is the attack where text fed to a model is written to override its real instructions, and you defend against it by assuming no single control will stop it. There is no filter that reliably separates…

An AI agent implementation goes right when you start with one narrow, well-defined workflow, give the agent least-privilege access to the systems it needs, keep a human approving consequential actions, and measure…

An AI agent can assemble your weekly status report by pulling from the tools where work actually happens. It reads the project tracker, the git history, the CRM, the shared docs, and the team chat, then summarizes…

Every team has a question that gets asked once a week and answered the same way every time. "What is the staging database URL?" "Who approves a refund over five hundred dollars?" "Did we ever decide on the new logo…

An AI agent can schedule meetings on Google Calendar end to end. It reads the calendars of everyone invited, finds times when all of them are genuinely free, respects each person's working hours, buffers, and focus…

Most teams treat content as something you switch on at launch, alongside the press push and the paid spend. It feels logical: why write about a product nobody can buy yet? The trouble is that content does not behave…

WWDC is Apple's developer conference, and in recent years it has become one of the most-watched moments in consumer AI, because Apple's choices shape what billions of phones can do by default. The interesting…

For most of the early agent era, the pitch was breadth. The promise was a single general-purpose agent that could plan, browse, write code, and handle whatever you threw at it. That vision is still alluring, but in…

We have published more than 500 blog posts before launching our product, and the traffic is still a trickle. That is the honest headline, and we are writing it down on purpose. It is tempting for an early-stage…

When you open the Gravity catalog, you see a list of agents that each do a specific job, and you can run any of them in about 60 seconds by describing what you need. What you do not see is the work that decided which…

Most launch announcements arrive after the fact, polished and certain. This is the opposite kind of post. Gravity is still pre-launch, on a waitlist, and this is a candid look at exactly where things stand: what is…

Google's Gemini line has moved steadily from a chat-and-completion model toward a foundation for agents: software that does not just answer but takes actions, calls tools, and works through a task. The direction has…

"Are AI agents overhyped?" is the wrong question if you expect a yes or no. By mid-2026 the answer is plainly both. The technology is real, it does useful work every day, and the curve of what it can do has bent…

By 2026, AI agents are no longer a question of whether but of how, and the how looks very different depending on the size of the buyer. A 40,000-person enterprise and a 12-person agency both want agents to do real…

To build a research agent, you set up one repeatable pattern: gather information from defined sources, verify it, then synthesize a summary you can trust. In practice that means deciding the exact research question,…

There is no single best AI agent for sales teams. The right one depends on where your pipeline actually leaks: top-of-funnel sourcing, follow-up that slips on a busy day, or a CRM that nobody keeps clean. So instead…

The best AI agent for marketers depends on where your work actually slows down. The content usually gets written; what slips is the rhythm around it: repurposing last week's post into channel-specific versions,…

AI agent platforms diverge on six dimensions that decide fit: how you tell the agent what to do, how you pay, whether the platform is no-code or code-first, how it connects to your tools, whether it supports human…

Yes, an AI agent can run your post-webinar follow-up end to end: it pulls the registrant and attendance lists from your webinar tool, splits them into attended and no-show segments (and sorts attendees by engagement…
