Building AI for complex workflows, AI-first GTM teams, managing agents
interview of builders, behind-the-scenes, meet us IRL
🪄 Hey there, welcome to the seventh issue of ‘Another one bites on Dust’, where we share what’s happening in and around Dust and some insider takes for AI builders, tinkerers and enthusiasts.
AI is fundamentally transforming both our personal and work lives, altering the way we act, the way we think, and the way we collaborate. This profound change requires new environments. We're building Dust to serve as the operating system for AI-driven companies. When we're done, work won't be the same.

Gina shared extensively some easy wins AI-first GTM teams have already implemented (here)
Dust is now live on Google Cloud Marketplace (here)
We’re seeing companies building their Agent OS right now. Are you? (here)
Remember when Shah and Diamond were just trying us out (here)? Well, they’re back -this time with Gabriel himself- talking about how we think about the landscape, pricing, workflows vs. agents, and how agent management will evolve over time:
Use case of the week
Edouard is on a mission -here on Linkedin; or here as well- to showcase in video what working with AI agents actually looks like in practice. In his own words:
I recently joined Dust and it is the first time in my career I'm selling something I ACTUALLY USE on a day-to-day basis.
That, combined with the fact that I see a lot of inspiring YET incredibly abstract content on the topic of agentic AI, I decided to start doing some video content on what working with AI agents really looks like. This is my first video, so a bit rough around the edges, but curious to get your feedback.
He already published 2 videos: (a) first one where he completes a security questionnaire in minutes and (b) second one where he answers technical questions without bothering any of the Solution Engineers.
Enjoy 🍿
French Touch 🇫🇷
We have offices in San Francisco and Paris (and we’re hiring like crazy in both spots), so we do have people within the team and customers who speak ‘the language of Molière’ (as we say in French!).
