I'm Delaney, one of the founder of Caddie AI, a Slack bot with access to my Gmail, CRM, LinkedIn, calendar, and 90+ other tools.
The origin: I ran a hiring marketplace that did $100k in 8 months. The GTM work was relentless - logging notes to the CRM after calls, prepping for meetings by hunting through old emails, drafting outreach, following up with leads. Same 5-10 tasks every single day. So I started building an agent to handle it.
The first version worked, but only for me. My co-founder isn't technical and explaining how to configure an agent was its own project. Which tools to connect, how to write system prompts, what MCP even is. She's sharp, just had no reason to care about any of that. I kept trying to hand it off and kept failing. Eventually I stopped explaining and just rebuilt it so there was nothing to explain.
That version is what we're launching now. We built it for ourselves, used it to run all of our own GTM - outreach, CRM logging, meeting prep, Reddit/X research + automation, LinkedIn ghostwriting content, candidate pipeline tracking - and when we saw how much time it was saving us, the product became obvious so we're bringing it to market.
Here's how it works technically:
- Installs via Slack App Directory (60 seconds, OAuth)\n- MCP connects 100+ tools as callable functions - Gmail, LinkedIn, HubSpot, Attio, Google Calendar, Sheets, Reddit, Twitter, and more\n- A "skills" system lets you install pre-built workflows (morning standup, CRM note logger, LinkedIn ghostwriter, cold email drafter) or write your own with a plain English prompt\n- It persists a rules file per user - tell it your preferences once ("always lead with ROI in cold outreach, I work in CST") and it applies them automatically going forward\n- All write actions (send email, publish post, log to CRM) require explicit confirmation before executing
The design bet: most people won't configure a standalone agent tool. But if the agent is already where they work (Slack) and it just works the first time they type something, the activation problem goes away.
We're an official Slack partner and launched this week. About 50 users in free beta.
A genuine question for the thread: we default to "show draft, get confirmation" for all write actions. A few power users want to flip this off and let the agent just fire. What's the right default - safe-by-default or assume-trust? Curious how others have thought about the autonomy tradeoff.

Whether you believe that credit card rewards can be considered passive income or not, figured I\u2019d share this here.
I\u2019ve been working on a project called The Card Caddie, it is essentially a tool to know when to use the right credit card. I love to travel and have gotten so many flights and hotels at insane rates, timing when to use points. But the actual process of navigating credit card rewards is not passive, like at all. I built this chrome extension and app to make it passive for me, whenever I go to purchase something, I instantly get informed with the card to use at that merchant to maximize my reward returns.
I posted here a few months ago with the chrome extension part of this project, but just got my iOS app live on the App Store. The chrome extension works on website domains, the app works with your location to estimate nearby stores and calculates the card to use. I added a live activity widget so you can know what card to use before you can even open your Apple Wallet.
I realize credit card info is very confidential, so you don\u2019t input any personal info to this tool. I scraped all the publicly available data for the reward rates for popular cards and handle it for you.
Assume you spend 10k a year. Average card reward rate sits somewhere between 1-2% (assuming cash-back $100 to $200), but if you can get that more like 2-3+% you could be earning hundreds more a year. It\u2019s not life changing money, but might as well earn as much as you can per purchase, especially if it is minimal/no effort.

Even the thumb print reader on the screen frame. The only thing I don't like is there is no built in DVD R/W and no HDMI. It truly is tough, this one was knocked off a table and fell thirty two inches to a tile floor. Not the lenoleum tiles hard rock of some kind. Landed on the top right corner of the monitor. Small chip there. Three key caps flew off and I could not figure how to replace them. However I was able to use it without the caps until new keyboard came in. The machine was on and running when it hit the floor. HD is fine.\nMine is running Fedora-23 with no twiking at all to install. Wife is running Fedora-25 even better. I have some later model Tough books that I like the handles on and have DVD internal. All have plugable hard drives and replacing a hard drive in the caddy requires no tools. You can purchase extra caddies, "some what expensive" and have pluggable hard drives with optional configurations, OS's etc. I have them but have not needed any OS other than FC-23 for my daily work. I do run a VM machine boots to Kali Linux. So since VM does the job I don't have an extra drive. I may build a drive dedicated to Kali Linx though as the VM is pretty darn slow. That might be more obvious on mine as I also run full disk encryption. I may look into a two partition system where my sensative data is on the encrypted partition and everything else on a plane ole EXT4 system. That might or might not give me some extra speed. If anyone has done this and noticed an improvement please enlighten us.

My favorite one, "this one" is a "CF-C1" it's old. It has dual hot swapable batteries. A very big plus for me. Wife has it's clone. Mine has just about everything you can get for one. Even the thumb print reader on the screen frame. The only thing I don't like is there is no built in DVD R/W and no HDMI. It truly is tough, this one was knocked off a table and fell thirty two inches to a tile floor. Not the lenoleum tiles hard rock of some kind. Landed on the top right corner of the monitor. Small chip there. Three key caps flew off and I could not figure how to replace them. However I was able to use it without the caps until new keyboard came in. The machine was on and running when it hit the floor. HD is fine.\nMine is running Fedora-23 with no twiking at all to install. Wife is running Fedora-25 even better. I have some later model Tough books that I like the handles on and have DVD internal. All have plugable hard drives and replacing a hard drive in the caddy requires no tools. You can purchase extra caddies, "some what expensive" and have pluggable hard drives with optional configurations, OS's etc. I have them but have not needed any OS other than FC-23 for my daily work. I do run a VM machine boots to Kali Linux. So since VM does the job I don't have an extra drive. I may build a drive dedicated to Kali Linx though as the VM is pretty darn slow. That might be more obvious on mine as I also run full disk encryption. I may look into a two partition system where my sensative data is on the encrypted partition and everything else on a plane ole EXT4 system. That might or might not give me some extra speed. If anyone has done this and noticed an improvement please enlighten us.
