This week on StrictlyVC Download, Connie Loizos and Alex Gove speak with Howie Liu, co-founder and CEO of Airtable. On Tuesday, Liu announced the launch of Superagent, Airtable's first standalone product outside of its core platform. This is more than just an AI feature added to an existing product. Superagent is betting a little on autonomous agents that handle tasks end-to-end, rather than chatbots that provide text-based answers.
In this conversation, Liu explains why he decided to build Superagent as a separate product rather than just a feature of Airtable, how it actually works under the hood, from native integrations to browser automation, and early signs that suggest he might be on to something big.
