Eno is the co-founder of Factory and the most AI-native founder I know. He gave me a live demo of how he builds apps with AI agents, but what really blew my mind was his product management skill that writes PRDs, prioritizes features, and much more. We also had some real talk about competing in the white hot AI coding space.
Eno and I talked about:
(00:00) What makes Droid different from other AI agents
(03:46) Live demo: Building a speed reading app from meeting notes
(08:11) The difference between spec mode and plan mode
(12:04) How real engineers use AI agents vs vibe coders
(16:33) Skills vs MCPs vs hooks: When to use each one
(19:02) Eno's PM skill that completely blew my mind
(22:46) Why Factory hires product engineers vs. PMs
(27:09) How a 40-person team competes with Cursor and Anthropic
