Spencer spent his entire childhood as an expert at running private World of Warcraft servers for nerds, and it is honestly inspiring to see he is still doing the exact same thing as a CEO today.
About Spencer
BuildBetter is the judgment layer underneath the decisions of companies like Brex, Zywave, PostHog, and Gorgias. We turn messy company data into structured, permissioned, queryable context that humans and agents act upon. Concretely: when Brex receives feedback from a customer, BuildBetter ingests it, resolves the account and revenue context, classifies severity and product area, and can route it straight into a PRD, ticket, or coding-agent task — so the work that gets built is the work that matters. The same layer powers product decisions, customer-success workflows, revenue intelligence, internal AI tools, and coding-agent memory.Spencer started BuildBetter because he loves building products that dramatically improve people’s lives. He started his first software business at age 12, and first raised venture capital at 19. He's worked with YC Seed -> Series C companies (Alembic, Shogun, Inv.tech, MUD\WTR, Exploding Kittens)

This is what it feels like to ship things using AI tools as a non-engineer. But it doesn’t have to. Trust me, I’ve learned first hand how confusing agentic dev environments can be for non-engineers. The early days building them myself made me want to drop everything and live as a hermit in the woods. That’s why I’ve taken those lessons and I’m running a live session for other non-engineers who are using AI to build. You'll learn how to pick the right model for the job, structure a project so your agent keeps context, and write your first skill live. You'll leave with a working agent

Meta has burned $2.65 billion a year on AI tokens. At around $300K for a Meta engineer, that's enough to pay around 9,000 engineers for a full year. Some other (more useful) things it could have bought: - 7,000 Lamborghinis - 20 Epstein islands - 100,000 ping pong tables He might not have been in this mess if he’d known about https://tryzeroshot.com/
