Harsh Savergaonkar is building October, backed by Antler India, out of San Francisco. He co-founded CricInShots before it.

IF YOU’RE STILL COPY PASTING BETWEEN CLAUDE, CODEX AND GROK, YOU’RE NGMI
today we are launching October to fix this
give October the goal, and it checks:
> which harnesses you have
> remaining usage
> what worked well for similar tasks before
then it picks the team, connects them, splits the work and lets them coordinate directly. e.g. codex with 20l 5.6 can lead, fable can review and grok can execute
Shengkun Ye co-founded Monid in San Francisco with Feiyou Guo, after working at Founders Inc, TabaPay and WeChat. OpenRouter gives a developer one account and one key across every AI model; Monid is that for the tools an agent calls rather than the models it thinks with. Its registry lists over 1,700 tools from 55 providers, and an agent asks what is available for a job, picks by fit and price, runs it with no sign-up, and is billed about a tenth of a cent for that one call, out of a single balance. Monid is not new today: it launched in April 2026 and again as 2.0 in May. What this post adds is the raise and the 4 million calls.
Introducing Monid, the OpenRouter for agent tools.
Today we crossed 4M agent transactions. And raised a $2.1M pre-seed to kill every subscription in the world.
Your agents can now:
> discover, run, and pay for tools at runtime
> one connection to 1,800 APIs: SEO, leads, search, ecommerce, stocks, video/image/music/3D gen, private company data
> all pay per call, 0 subscriptions
Mark Zuckerberg co-founded Facebook, now Meta, and is its chief executive. Muse Code is Meta's coding agent, worked from the terminal and built on Muse Spark 1.2, a coding model trained alongside the agent rather than wrapped around a general one. It keeps a repository of thousands of files in a 1M-token context window, splits a large job across sub-agents that each work in their own git worktree so parallel edits do not collide, and prints every sub-agent, tool call, steer and cancel to an event log. Muse Code is not new today: it opened in early beta on 5 August 2026, priced from $5 a month with $15 and $50 tiers above it, and a cheaper contributor tier in some countries in return for Meta training on your prompts and completions. What this post adds is that the beta is over.
Eldad Fux started Appwrite as a side project in 2019. Appwrite calls itself the open-source cloud for agents and devs; it has 57,000 stars on GitHub and raised a $10 million seed led by Bessemer and Flybridge. The turn in 2.0 is that a platform built on its own abstraction now hands you the engine underneath: native PostgreSQL and MySQL that answer to psql and the mysql client, alongside a schemaless DocumentsDB and a VectorsDB for embeddings. Appwrite's own phrase for it is to give the raw engine when the abstraction is wrong. Every feature goes live on Appwrite Cloud during their Init week, and the self-hosted Community Edition follows when the week ends, with Domains and Firewall staying Cloud-only.
Many months of hard work from our core team and the Appwrite community have resulted in our biggest release to date, as we continue our journey to make @appwrite the most complete end-to-end developer platform 🚀
