AboutIn the host's words.

AI is writing more of the code. So how do teams decide what to build, and how do they trust what they ship?

Join Antidote, Antler, Linear and Granola for an evening built around that question.

AI has made it faster to build than ever. Deciding what to build, and trusting what ships, is now the hard part. Granola captures the conversations where decisions get made, Linear turns them into plans, and Antidote checks the result with autonomous testing that sends confirmed issues straight into Linear. Together they see the full journey from idea to shipped product, and how teams are changing the way they work along the way.

Expect a thoughtful conversation, followed by drinks, food and time to meet the engineers, builders and founders shipping code every day.
