@useprized was at @ycombinator today talking about accelerating how you run your company with agents. great talk @hudson_gri!

been building agent city. a place full of real agents working on their own computers and you'll be able to drop in and watch. this is 37 of them warming up

Your agent can sign you up for Prized! After you verify your email, it gets an API key and $30 in credit to start building. Hermes, Claude Code and Codex agents are already doing it.

Prized retweeted
Part founder, part barista? Hudson (@hudson_gri) of @UsePrized on going zero to one, why Brex was an easy call, and the espresso machine that sealed the deal.

Your agent's been ready to run a team. Now it has the computers for it.
Your agent can run 100 subagents. Your laptop can't. Tell your agent to use the Prized CLI and every subagent gets its own computer, an exact copy of your box, all running at once. Prized Sandboxes are available today.

"more agents than employees" sounds like a headcount prediction. it's an infrastructure prediction. every one of those agents needs a computer.

agents are running for hours, then days. laptops are designed around a human who leaves. this mismatch will define the next dev environment.

the next debate isn't which agent to use. it's where the agent is allowed to run.

asking a coding agent to "run overnight" on a laptop is like asking a plant to grow while you hold it.

I taught the fly brain to play Mario Kart. It beat the Dry Dry Ruins shroomless best known time while I slept. Told my agent to spin up parallel research agents and gpu boxes on @useprized and woke up to this. How far could this realistically go?

if your coding agent needs you to carry an open laptop across town, we should probably discuss who is working for whom.
