Apple Intelligence is surprisingly bad! I ask it "What apps do you have access to" and it says "Ok, here's the app store". I ask it "What's your favorite thing about me" and it says "That one. No, that one. Or maybe that one. Yep, that one." WTF😂

We've also released enum support today. Our AI engine will map values from any integration directly into your custom schema. We'll be working on rolling out standardized enum values for our prebuilt schemas in the coming weeks!
On behalf of the entire team at Endgrate, we hope you had a restful, healthy holiday season and wish you a happy new year. We’ve been hard at work and are thrilled to release one of our most comprehensive updates to the platform: endgrate.com/blog/product-u…
I had a great chat with Jon from Oomiji, a B2B marketing tool, on how Endgrate removes the obstacle of creating and maintaining integrations.
B2B marketing tools need integrations to close deals. We recently talked with Jon, the CEO of Oomiji, on how Endgrate helps Oomiji dramatically increase their sales conversion.
Yum yum
Hope everyone had a great Labor day weekend! We're starting the week off with some awesome updates. Our IO improvements have resulted in 30% faster API endpoints across the board, and we now support synchronous /transfer endpoints with a simple flag.
It's been a great summer working on Endgrate with the team. We've worked really closely with our customers, have gotten great feedback around the product, and I am very proud of what we accomplished. Can't wait to see where we're at a year from now!
Long time to see! For our last product update of the summer, we wanted to go all-out on customer feature requests and new integrations. 🧵👇
