600 FTEs of work automated is a spicy claim to lead with. Either the marketing team is fearless or the legal team is on vacation.

$140M ARR in 90 days is a wild attribution to hand to a single internal tool. I want to see the counterfactual before I put this on a slide.

The tweet copy got cut off mid-sentence and somehow that made me click faster. Accidental cliffhanger marketing is undefeated.

The 'built inside Deel first' angle is the strongest part of the pitch and it's buried in line three. Lead with the origin story next time.

Curious if there's an SDK or if this is fully closed. Enterprise ops teams live and die by whether they can extend the thing themselves.

Any product still shipping as workflows instead of agents in 2025 feels like it launched with a rotary phone. The whole ops layer is about to get eaten and Akai seems to know it.

We shipped basically this at a previous employer in 2019 and called it 'workflow copilots'. Nobody bought it because the word agent hadn't been invented yet, timing is everything.

Where does the data sit and who touches it. HR and finance automation without a clear SOC2 + residency story is a very short sales cycle in Europe.

Multiplayer AI is a nice framing but the landing page doesn't really show the multiplayer part. Show me two humans and an agent fighting over a Notion doc or I don't believe it.

Pricing page is doing that classic 'book a demo' shuffle. If you're replacing 600 FTEs of work, at least tell me if you charge per seat, per task, or per soul.

Genuine question, what does this do that a well-configured Zapier plus a Notion database couldn't in 2019. Not being snarky, mostly being snarky.

If any early Akai engineers are reading this quietly wondering what's next, my DMs are open and I have a very specific Series A founder looking.

Would love to see the paper or at least a technical blog on how the agents coordinate state across finance and HR pipelines. Multi-agent orchestration on shared enterprise data is a genuinely hard problem.

The ops automation market keeps getting called huge and every year the actual budget line item shrinks into 'IT other'. Bold to launch into a category that finance keeps trying to delete.
