Attie is Bluesky's first AI product — a standalone app built on the AT Protocol and powered by Anthropic's Claude that lets users create custom social media feeds in natural language without any coding. Built by Jay Graber (Bluesky's founder) and a new internal "Exploration team", it was unveiled at the ATmosphere conference in late March 2026. The core use case: instead of accepting the algorithm Bluesky gives you, you describe the feed you want in natural language ("show me posts from indie hackers about AI tools, no politics, ranked by engagement") and Attie builds it. Because it runs on AT Protocol, it has access to the full social graph and content signals across all ATProto apps, not just Bluesky. Attie is currently invite-only for ATmosphere attendees, with a public waitlist open. It's already become the most-blocked account on Bluesky other than J.D. Vance — a sign that AI-mediated social feeds are contentious even among the decentralized-web crowd. Future versions will let users vibe-code entire ATProto apps.

Gro v2 is an AI-powered sales platform that adds social signal monitoring to its existing prospecting engine. The key new feature in v2 is Content Search — it scans LinkedIn, Twitter/X, and other platforms in real-time for posts that indicate buying intent, then automatically triggers workflows: alerts, connection requests, comment drafts, and email sequences, all from one interface. Underneath that is a database of over 1 billion contact records with AI-driven propensity scoring that ranks accounts by likelihood to convert. The system coordinates multi-channel outreach (email + LinkedIn + others) and tries to collapse what used to be a stack of five or six point solutions — Apollo, Clay, Phantombuster, etc. — into one system. Gro v2 targets growth-focused B2B teams who currently have to stitch together multiple tools for their outreach stack. It offers a free tier, though the full intent-monitoring and automation features are presumably gated behind paid plans.
Reviewer scorecard
“Using an AI to write your own feed algorithm, on open protocol rails, is fundamentally different from accepting a black-box recommendation system. The AT Protocol data access is the real moat — it gives Claude context no other AI social assistant has. This is the most interesting social AI product in years.”
“Social signal monitoring that auto-triggers structured outreach is a real workflow upgrade. If the signal quality is high — not just keyword matching — this replaces three separate tools in the stack immediately.”
“Most-blocked account on Bluesky before public beta — the decentralized/open-web community is deeply skeptical of AI-mediated content, and they're not wrong to be. Natural language feed algorithms also sound better than they work; niche interest filtering is still inconsistent. Wait for the waitlist to open and test it yourself.”
“The '1B+ contact database' claim is table stakes in 2026, and every Sales AI promises to unify the stack. The real question is whether the intent signals are actually predictive or just keyword noise. No independent validation here.”
“When users can describe their own feed filters in natural language on open protocol data, the algorithmic chokehold that Twitter and Meta have wielded for years becomes technically obsolete. Attie is early and rough, but it's pointing at the end of platform-controlled content distribution.”
“Real-time social intent layered on top of structured outreach automation is the logical next step for B2B AI. The companies that nail signal fidelity will eat the legacy CRM market.”
“Every creator hates algorithmic feeds. Attie gives actual control — intent-based filtering instead of opaque engagement optimization. If it works, building a 'show me everything from the 50 creators I care about plus viral design content' feed in five minutes changes social media for creators entirely.”
“Auto-triggering comments and connection requests from detected 'intent' is the kind of feature that makes LinkedIn even more of a spam hellscape. I'd use this sparingly unless the personalization is genuinely thoughtful.”
