I'm Jake, the founder of Fixed Point Labs. About 18 months ago, I left my role as the product engineering lead for Normal Computing to spend some time staring at clouds and figure out where I wanted to take my career next.
I've been curious about bootstrapping a company for a couple of years now, and thought this might be a good time to give it a shot. After churning through a few different product ideas, I eventually found myself hacking on Rift, a cloud VM platform for agents. Rift gives your agent of choice the ability to launch cloud VMs that come with all of your development dependencies baked in. Think beautiful, secure devboxes designed specifically for agents. I am so, so excited about this product, it's hard to even describe.
This video is the first public demo for Rift. Sharing your work is so scary! But I'm also delighted to be getting it out there. I can't wait to hear what you think.
Bootstrapping has been a real journey so far, happy to answer questions about it. There are also so many fun technical details that underpin the design of the platform. Happy to dig into any of that, too.
