Episode notes

Maintaining a level of urgency within a company, regardless of its size, is crucial for keeping the culture of promptness and progress. Ensuring consistent movement and avoiding stagnation is key to preserving the urgency. To maintain urgency, setting specific deadlines like shipping every two weeks or highlighting a feature regularly helps in keeping the momentum. Having a clear plan and target release for projects, making necessary cuts to meet deadlines, and constantly moving forward are essential to sustain the urgency within the team.

This week Adam is joined by Thomas Paul Mann, Co-founder and CEO of Raycast, to discuss being productive on a Mac, going beyond their free tier, the extensions built by the community, the Raycast Store, how they’re executing on Raycast AI chat which aims to be a single interface to many LLMs. Raycast has gone beyond being an extendable launcher – they’ve gone full-on productivity mode with access to AI paving the way of their future.
