From the MongoDB story
“If an Answer Engine gives the wrong information about how to configure MongoDB, the developer doesn't have a bad experience with the AI, they have a bad experience with us.”
“It was so refreshing to nerd-out in that first call with Anthroly; we could all be transparent about what was unknowable, what we thought was coming, discuss our speculations and educated guesses, instead of just rigidly going through their sales pitch.”
“If you are running a marketing team in 2026 and still treating AI optimization like a side project, you're already behind.”
