Been seeing some SF coffee tier lists floating around, and coffee is like 50% of my personality so heres mine. SF has maybe the best coffee scene in America, mostly because of the density of talented baristas (SF consistently places top 5 in the US barista championships!)

our per-engineer velocity has surged these last few months
workstreams, delegations, better review automations and much more robust validation loops

Very excited to have @dexhorthy and @0xblacklight join Factory. We've known them for a while and it's been amazing to watch what they've built with @humanlayer_dev and the community around it. They've been ahead of the curve on how large teams should work with coding agents for a long time.
Together we’re going to push Factory further into multiplayer. Keep an eye out for a bunch more from us soon!
Today, @humanlayer_dev is joining Factory.
HumanLayer is a multiplayer coding agent IDE and cloud for running agents locally or in the background.
Together, with @dexhorthy and @0xblacklight we're building the future of software factories for entire engineering teams.

I estimate the number of agents per user will keep doubling every six months.
Here's a look at some of the runtime changes we made to handle that growth.
Droid has consistently been the best place to work with any model. We've come a long way from our terminal bench #1 placement across all models a year ago, and the team has been cooking on making improvements across all vectors where models currently show inefficient behavior.
Introducing Droid 1.0: the new engine behind Factory’s agent.
Built for complex projects and everyday development:
>more accurate
>more efficient
>faster than ever before

@FactoryAI builds Factory on @droid, and Finance is still one of the biggest internal users.
Here are a few examples of how a lean team is building finance from the ground up on Factory, automating financial operations end to end:

Very excited to welcome @sonofalli as VP of New Media and Startups Marketing at @FactoryAI.

We're excited to share our customer story with @claudeai featuring Factory co-founder and CEO @matanSF.
We cover topics like how @AnthropicAI frontier models in @Droid are enabling engineering teams to handle long-horizon tasks across large codebases, what it will take to build a fully autonomous "dark factory" for software, and more.

As the world’s largest alternative asset manager, @Blackstone requires the highest standards of deployment flexibility and governance.
Factory made it possible to operate agentic software development within Blackstone’s own data centers without compromising model choice or workflows.

how I scaled my design workflow for a global billboard campaign that is live in NYC, Tokyo, London, and cities around the globe using coding agents in @FactoryAI 🧵🧵🧵
this thread is focused on using coding agents to reformat design assets for dozens of billboard panels that are often grouped, cropped, and placed in unexpected ways and less about designing the original motion graphics concept (which was created using a combination of generative AI video footage, and overlay graphics created with code / figma). Before coding agents, formatting all of these panels to spec would take hours / days of non-creative work...
Since this blew up, self plug for the only objectively and not at all biased S+ coffee popup in SF (and we have some great bagels too): instagram.com/mint.manor/
Some glaring omissions, I apologize I just completely forgot:
- St. Frank: A tier, and Juniper is probably my favorite bakery in SF atm (operated by st frank!)
- Spro: Wild fox is just better spro (also operated by the same people)
For the best pour overs, go to Kope House or TCM. For vibes, hedge has a gorgeous space. The pop up scene in SF is also great and showcases the care people put into the craft of coffee (self promo follow instagram.com/mint.manor/). Other favorites in the bay include The Crown in Oakland and the best cortado ive ever had was at Kaizen in San Mateo. All of these places deserve a try, the coffee here really is just that good.
