Super Prompt: Building in the Era of AI Agents
In the era of agents, the exponential that matters most is human agency.
Agents lower the cost of building and operating while making scattered demand easier to reach. This enables a different kind of ambition. A company need not be venture-shaped. It can be founder-shaped: focused, durable, and capable of changing its founder’s life without changing the world.
Super Prompt began by exploring how humans work with AI. Now we learn by building.
We meet builders, test emerging tools, and follow what works, what breaks, and what one person can now make real.
