The Respell team is now part of @salesforce! Over the past 2 years, we’ve powered millions of workflows for companies large and small. It’s been my dream to help every professional to focus on work that matters. Now, we'll help build the future of AI agents with Agentforce.

I've been working on Respell for a few months now, and today we're going public! You shouldn't need to know how to code to build with AI - we're past that. Respell lets you build AI applications in seconds without any coding. Here's what we're building, and why.

GPT-4 will change the way that every student learns! Imagine a single lesson being instantly converted into a version for visual learners, logical learners, etc. We built an app that used GPT-4 to do exactly this - without code and in literal seconds. Here's how we did it 👇🧵

Today we announced Respell's $4.75M seed raise from @craft_ventures , @AbstractVC , and many angels who I've respected for a long time. Work should be more human, and we're on a mission to make it that way.

Oh so when Bryan does it it's "good marketing" and "based" but when I do it it's "off-brand for an AI platform" 🙄

Automated phone systems are the bane of my existence. I don't want to press 1, and no I will not wait. So now I just send the robot to them. It's robots talking to robots, like a cyberpunk love story. You can automate calls on Respell starting today 🚀 producthunt.com/posts/belva-ai

Are you in SF? Respell hosts coworking at our office every Friday - chill, lots of natural light, cozy, snacks, you get it. Like WeWork, but not going out of business.

We've come a long way since I designed our first logo. Respell is looking for a talented brand + product designer that can go from left (yours truly) to right (someone better than me). Open to PT/contract work or FT - who should I talk to?

It’s crazy to believe we were selected to be in this years Forbes 30 Under 30 class! Super grateful to have my cofounders, @trenthedge @mattrasto and Austin, helping make this happen. This was not something I was expecting to wake up to #ForbesUnder30 forbes.com/30-under-30/20…

I've been overwhelmed with the response to Respell! Excited to see what everybody creates. I don't want Respell to be a walled garden, so we're hoping to only take a few more days to iron out some issues before letting more folks in off the waitlist.

Would be great to see another mode where you can type in your dream job and it finds paths to it for you. Whether you have your end goal figured out or not, you could use it for career inspo.

OpenAI just removed some of Respell’s biggest blockers. Tons of other startups probably in the same boat. I don’t get all the despair when you can move faster towards the product/impact/world you set out to create 🥳

Building with AI seems easy, but there are plenty of new challenges: - Is my prompt right? - How do I upload this image? - Which model should I use? - What the hell is an embedding? We handle the hard parts for you, so you can simply connect building blocks and *just build*
