Just dropped: Build your own AI Gmail Agent in less time than it takes to argue about tabs vs. spaces! 🚀 Ever wanted to ask your inbox "Who's been emailing me about that deadline?" and get an actual answer instead of cold, digital silence? We built a sample app that shows you EXACTLY how to make that happen with Python, Streamlit, and OpenAI. The really cool part? We solved that nightmare OAuth flow so your users can securely connect their Gmail accounts without you having to sacrifice your sanity to the authentication gods. One-click login that works? What is this sorcery?! (It's Arcade.dev) Complete with: • ALL the code you need on GitHub • Mateo Torres's Step-by-step video walkthrough (only 40 min!) • Data structure blueprints for Gmail API wrangling • Prompt engineering patterns that actually work Build it this weekend, put it in your portfolio on Monday, and watch your colleagues slowly realize you've become too powerful to be left alone with an API key.

TechCrunch featured our $12M funding last week. Now our CEO Alex Salazar is spilling all the details on how we accidentally built the solution to "the biggest auth problem ever." 🚀 We started by trying to build a site reliability agent and ended up creating something so powerful that people thought our demos were fake. Classic us. Want to know how we convinced Pete Sonsini, Mike Volpi, and the co-founder of Benchmark Capital to bet on us? Or why our team is—and I quote—"holy shit" impressive? Check out this interview where Alex reveals how we're letting AI finally escape chat-mode prison and do something useful in the real world. #AIInfrastructure #TechCrunch #AIAgents

Frontend Engineers: “We understand our users!”   Machine Experience Engineers: “Our users are probability distributions” Fresh from the keyboard of an engineer who's spent way too much time watching LLMs fail in spectacular ways. Here's what actually happens when you build interfaces for users that think in token probabilities. RIP traditional API design. Here's the link to read more: https://lnkd.in/edme8sHv

"Authentication is the next pillar to fall for AI agents." - Paul Klein Looks nervously at our Git commit history from 8 months ago Guess we were just early to the party. But now that you're here Paul, let's show you what we've been building. The future where AI can securely act as you? It's not just coming. It's already deployed. Check out this 2 min demo: https://lnkd.in/etg4f9zm

Look who just redefined AI social media management 👀 Technical deep-dive: How LangChain built an AI agent that actually ships 🚀 Key components: - LangGraph for orchestration - Arcade for authenticated actions - FireCrawl for content parsing - Anthropic's Claude for intelligence The magic? Arcade's authentication layer lets the AI act as the user across platforms. No more wrestling with OAuth flows or token management. Their agent now: - Parses any URL for content - Generates platform-optimized posts - Finds & validates relevant images - Schedules based on engagement metrics - Maintains memory of user preferences See the open source code: langchain-ai/social-media-agentGitHub - langchain-ai/social-media-agent: 📲 An agent for sourcing, curating, and scheduling social media posts with human-in-the-loop. https://lnkd.in/gNFA7-5v

98% of companies are experimenting with AI. Only 26% are getting any value from it. The others? They're stuck in proof-of-concept purgatory because their AI can't do actual work. Our CRO Samira Rahmatullah breaks down why this is happening and what it means for your 2025 AI initiatives. https://lnkd.in/eTwwQviy

Our favorite (and only) CTO Sam Partee is giving a talk on how to properly build so that AI can have SUPERPOWERS. All you need are classical software engineering principles when building your AI tools.   Today aka December 10th at 11am PST our CTO Sam Partee will talk about how to develop tools well.     Modern software engineering practices, like versioning, packaging, and CI/CD, is the special sauce of reliable, scalable, and efficient AI tools.   Come ask Sam anything about tools, or even the paranormal romance novel he plans to publish next month. https://lu.ma/uj0rp4qt

You: “AI should be able to do things as me” Security team: “Impossible” Us: “Hold my auth token” Fresh demo showing AI accessing Gmail, Notion, and Slack with real user permissions. No bots allowed. Don't show your PM unless you're ready to rebuild your roadmap. 🚀

We could tell you how Arcade just made auth seamless for LangGraph agents. Or you could watch Harrison Chase (you know, the person who BUILT LangChain) tell you why he's excited about it.

🌟 I am excited to share some great news: I've joined Arcade AI as a Software Engineer! 🚀 It has been a while since I’ve shared an update filled with such joy and enthusiasm. For too long, we have accepted AI that merely talks. It’s time to develop AI that truly performs tasks—not as autonomous agents making independent decisions, but as collaborative tools that carry out real tasks under human direction. Arcade is laying the foundation for this shift: moving from conversation to action and from theory to reality. What excites me the most is not just the technology, but the incredible team behind it. I’m so thrilled to be working again with some of the most talented people I’ve ever had the pleasure of collaborating with, and to meet new teammates with incredible backgrounds and outstanding attitudes. If you’re ready to see AI do more than just chat, stay tuned. We’re just getting started! 💡
