💜 We're super pumped to announce our integration with @RudderStack today.
What does this mean for you, a @RudderStack customer?
It means you can now configure your settings to set up CommandBar as a destination in RudderStack. Our friends at RudderStack wrote up a very helpful doc on how you can quickly do this. Check it out below.
What does this mean for you, a @CommandBar customer?
It means you can do more of what we love to preach: target, target, target. Once you've enabled the integration (as shown below), you can start using client-side events data to make your nudges meet the right users, at the right time.
There are many ways this could look like (depending on what data you collect and from where), but here's an example of a use case:
(1) User clicks a button for a specific feature in the app, triggering an event -> (2)Event is sent to RudderStack and CommandBar at the same time -> (3) CommandBar triggers an experience immediately to let the user know about new functionality of that feature.

The @ycombinator application isn't just about your idea. It's also about how you think. For most questions, there's a literal answer and a meta-answer that conveys the types of traits that predict founder success from YC.
Here's some advice on how to crush your @ycombinator application.

Budget cuts layoffs... Companies can't afford petty product-eng conflicts anymore.
When you understand engineers, you'll have less conflict and stress while building better products.
And what better way to learn how engineers think than to listen to a world-class technical leader chat with a world-class product leader?
@lennysan's latest podcast with @cartainc CTO @Lethain is a masterclass in the engineering mindset and how to collaborate to create great products—among many other things.
Here are our favorite lessons from the pod:

How important is the one-liner you use for explaining what your product does?
When we went through @ycombinator three years ago, we probably had the worst one in our batch.

podcast.

Obsessed with the new “make it more” trend on ChatGPT. You generate an image of something, and then keep asking for it to be MORE.
We asked ChatGPT to make a product manager progressively more cool. Here's what happened:

The job market for product managers is brutal. Every engineer is dunking on PMs. But why? We interviewed 5 YC founders on why they have NOT hired a PM.

SaaS blogging is about to change forever.
We’re building something that breaks away from the standard format, something that feels different, enticing, and, well, out there.
An unhinged publication for product and UX enthusiasts to unashamedly treat software as art. To bathe in the latest trends and read non-soporific, very tactical advice on building stunning products.
High-fashion magazine sass meets SaaS. Launching soon.

Unpopular opinion: PLG isn't the be-all and end-all.
Sure, it worked in many cases, but in a post-ZIRP world, founders care more about seeing revenue 📈 than ever before.

If you’ve ever used Slack from the toilet (guilty), you know that mobile UX is becoming more important, even in B2B. Less patient users on smaller screens means it’s extra hard, too.
UX has come a long way, but why has time stood still on mobile UX?

First, we conquered desktop. Now we conquer mobile.
We’re so excited to announce CommandBar for mobile, which lets you embed CommandBar's most popular in-product experiences into your mobile web, React Native, iOS, and Android apps.
🤖 Copilot: an AI-powered assistant for users to take actions without having to look through all the possible mobile screens you have in your app. Works with voice commands, too.
📝 HelpHub: make it easy for users to find training content, tutorials, etc. No in-app browser in sight.
⭐️ Nudges: announce stuff to users in non-annoying ways, using advanced targeting (like asking for a 5-star review after a magic moment, not 3 seconds after they've opened the app for the first time).
Anyone on your team can build and ship these experiences in our no-code editor. No need to go through the app stores review cycles, either.
We’d love your support on our Product Hunt launch today!

Databases are hard: They're not shiny features you can demo in an all-hands.
But choosing the right database is a crucial, no-turning-back decision. @trychroma is an open-source vector database purpose-built for AI.

While manually unearthing an arcane setting helps nobody, some users want to learn—think of a designer looking for an exotic Figma feature they plan to reuse.
Copilot does that too—by launching personalized product tours.

Copilot can directly fulfill user intent.
So far, even the best chatbots only explained steps to do something.
What if users could click a button that takes those steps? They'd love your product, churn less and open fewer tickets.
Copilot does that:

AI will transform what users expect from software. Today's good UX will soon feel clunky.
Soon, users will expect personalized in-product assistance that makes fulfilling their intent effortless.
Meet Copilot.

No “Sunday Scaries” for us yesterday! Why?
Because we’ve been too excited for our @jointechladies meetup this week. 💃👩💻
A splash networking (the fun kind that isn’t cringe)
A tipple of Q&A (our CEO/cofounder @dazzeloid is quite the chatterbox)
A pinch of “wow, this was better than I expected it to be”
Looking forward to seeing y’all there!

Finally, here's something easy to skip over: The UX copy remained internally consistent.
We stuck with "broadcast" instead of using synonyms like "newsletter" or "email".
This helps new users learn your product and ensures they know you're talking about the same thing.
