We're ending launch week with a banger. Introducing Knock guides. Guides enable you to power in-product messaging—everything from paywalls and badges, to one-time announcements and banners—using your own components.
A thing I'm proud of at Knock: we revisit core product and make it better Our legacy version control flow was designed by yours truly and became a primary source of suck as the product scaled Knock icon @MikeCarbone just shipped a complete overhaul and the end result is a…

The thing I love most about this note from Scott at Cognition: the focus on employees. Tech is at its best when everyone involved in the outcome shares in the upside, not just founders and VCs.
It’s a privilege to welcome Windsurf to Cognition. Here are more details in the note I sent to our Cognition team this morning: Team, As discussed during our all-hands, we are acquiring Windsurf. We have now signed a definitive agreement and we couldn’t be more excited. Here’s…
Thinking about this tweet from @scottbelsky a lot these days There's never been an easier time to "take a shit load of photographs" when you're building a product No excuse not to prototype, play with it, see how it feels, then prototype again @v0 a big part of this at Knock

Just heard from a customer who fed one of our migration guides into Cursor to automate their move to Knock from a competitor Thorough docs (context) + management APIs + MCP server = no more switching costs Good for customers and for high-quality products
Sat down with @J_Everhart383 to chat about Guides, a new beta release we recently shipped. It's like a CMS for your in-app messages that you can control real time from @knocklabs (powered w/ Elixir and Phoenix Channels). It's been a lot of fun building it from the ground up,…
On the final day of Knock’s launch week, we launched one of our most exciting products since…well, the beginning of launch week. 💬 Guides: a new way to leverage in-product messaging, including banners, paywalls, badges, one-time announcements, and more – without having to…
