This announcement from Vercel is actually worth a 2nd post because 1) it's such a big deal and 2) now I know why. The reason we've been able to build BB AI so fast is that there is ZERO communication required between business vision, product management and engineering. It's all in one person's head...mine. But all along, one of my biggest concerns was how to scale this without slowing down. We've onboarding a new engineering team to support me and their biggest roadblock is the ability to get ideas out of my head and into well documented requirements. When product can't do engineering and engineering doesn't know what the business wants, you need an effective communication layer and that just slows things down. One approach I took was to build a prototype of Jira <--> Claude (Thank you deepsense.ai for the idea: https://lnkd.in/gGhaGMYy) so that I could assign tickets to Claude in JIRA and that would spawn a cloud agent to implement the ticket, generate a PR and notify an engineer to review it. That's a start, but we need to merge the PR before a PM can review it. And if there are issues or bugs, we have to create another ticket and go back through the loop. This change from v0 / Vercel allows product managers to BUILD (not prototype) features and have engineers review / merge the code only after the feature is done properly. This massively reduces cycle time for product development. This is an ABSOLUTE GAMECHANGER. Thank you Vercel! https://lnkd.in/eeDtaGij
