Attie is a standalone AI assistant built on the AT Protocol and powered by Anthropic's Claude, released by Bluesky's former CEO Jay Graber — who stepped down specifically to build it. The app lets users design custom social feeds using natural language, without writing a single line of code. You can ask Attie to surface posts about specific topics, filter out content you hate, or create algorithm-driven feeds for any niche interest. Because Bluesky runs on the open AT Protocol, Attie has immediate access to your social graph, interests, and interaction history across the entire ecosystem — not just Bluesky but any ATProto app. This gives it a contextual richness that proprietary AI assistants like Grok (X) or Meta AI can never achieve on their platforms. It's invite-only with a waitlist, but the longer-term plan is to let users vibe-code their own social apps. The early reception was fascinating: Attie became the most-blocked account on Bluesky after Bluesky's own announcements bot — suggesting meaningful user anxiety about AI intrusion in the open social graph even when the tool is explicitly opt-in.

Klipy is an AI-native CRM for small and mid-sized sales teams that automatically captures conversations across every channel — Gmail, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, and calls — and uses them to keep your CRM current without manual data entry. Think of it as a sales chief-of-staff that watches every touchpoint and turns them into structured pipeline intelligence. The core loop: Klipy imports email threads and contact interactions automatically, enriches CRM records with conversation context, drafts follow-up messages tailored to what was actually discussed, and preps you for upcoming calls with summaries of prior interactions. The pipeline blind-spot detection surfaces deals that have gone quiet, contacts that haven't been followed up, and patterns that predict churn risk before it's obvious. At its pricing tier, Klipy targets teams that find Salesforce overkill but have outgrown spreadsheets. The auto-import from Gmail alone — which builds contact and company records without any manual work — is often cited as the feature that closes the sale. For a two-person sales team where everyone is doing their own CRM entry, this is a force multiplier.
Reviewer scorecard
“The AT Protocol's open data model is the unlock here — Attie can see your entire social context across apps, which is something a walled-garden AI assistant fundamentally cannot do. This is the right architecture for personal AI at the social layer.”
“The most-blocked-account stat tells you everything — even Bluesky's ideologically aligned user base is spooked by AI having read access to their social graph. Invite-only with no clear monetization path suggests this is a feature, not a company.”
“The category is 'auto-capture CRM' and the direct competitors are HubSpot's AI features, Attio, and whatever Salesforce calls its Einstein layer this month — but none of them nail the zero-entry promise for a two-person team the way Klipy does. The break point is scale: the moment you have a dedicated RevOps person, this probably loses to a more configurable platform. What kills it in 12 months isn't a competitor — it's Gmail and LinkedIn tightening API access, which would gut the auto-import that closes every sale.”
“This is the first demo of what AI-mediated social looks like on an open protocol. If it works, the implication is that any user can have a completely personalized feed without relying on corporate algorithmic decisions. That's a genuine paradigm shift from Twitter/Instagram's engagement-optimized black boxes.”
“The thesis here is falsifiable: within 3 years, CRM data entry as a human task will be considered a process failure, and the CRM that wins is the one whose data layer is the most complete — not the one with the best pipeline UI. Klipy is riding the trend of ambient data capture from communications channels, and it's on-time, not early. The second-order effect nobody is talking about: if auto-capture becomes table stakes, the differentiator shifts entirely to inference quality — who can turn that raw conversation data into the most accurate deal predictions — and that's a model and data-flywheel race Klipy needs a head start on now.”
“As a creator, controlling your own feed algorithm without needing to understand engagement optimization is huge. Being able to say 'show me posts from small illustrators, no sponsored content, heavy on process videos' and just getting that — this is the tool I've wanted since RSS died.”
“The buyer is obvious — a 2-to-10-person sales team where the CEO is still carrying a bag and nobody has time to log calls. That's a real budget line (tools, not headcount) and a defined pain. The moat concern is real: Gmail integration is a feature, not a defensible position, and HubSpot could ship this to their free tier and bury Klipy overnight. What saves it is that the SMB CRM graveyard is littered with HubSpot refugees — the wedge isn't the feature, it's the positioning against complexity.”
“The job-to-be-done is clean: keep the CRM current without anyone having to keep the CRM current. That's one job, no 'and.' The Gmail auto-import is the right moment of first value — if connecting your inbox gives you a populated contact list in under 5 minutes, the product has earned its trial. The gap I'd watch is the editing surface: auto-captured data is only as good as the correction workflow, and if fixing a bad import is painful, the tool trains users to distrust it.”
