Hi. Thanks Paulie. Hey guys. Good to see you guys. Hi everyone. Um you may have just seen on our socials, but we're here today to announce a big announcement. Um the first of which is that vzero.dev is now vzero.app, the AI builder for everyone. So, we're not just for devs, we're for everybody. Um, and so Ari and I are going to be walking through what that means and talking through what this announcement um is showcasing today with
some demos and then some questions from all of you as you start to explore it. Um, but before we get started, we can just do some brief intros. I'm Alli. I head partnerships for Vzero. Um, and I also work on our startups program at Verscell. And Ari, how about you go next? Yeah. Hey guys. Uh I'm Ari uh and I am the product manager for Vzero. Amazing. Okay. Well, to kick things off,
why don't we just start with talking about why we have moved from v 0ero.dev to vzero.app. Yeah. Um so, you know, we've been building Vzero for a long time now. Uh the first version of vzero launched all the way back in October or November of 2023. um and at the time we really thought that uh AI vibe coding would be something that'd be limit limited to just developers and in the past year and a half of building vzero we've actually found that that's not the case at all. Um some of our coolest and most
interesting use cases have come from people who are actually not really not that technical and so we really wanted to make the shift from VZero being a tool for developers to really being a tool for anyone to build just like they were a developer. Um, and I think for us that really comes from the fact that when people think of the word developer, a lot of people believe that that's not them. Uh, and we think with tools like VZero, actually everyone can build things like everyone actually is a developer. And so we really wanted this to reflect that. Yeah, everyone can cook. I mean, I'm not
a developer and I use Vzero every day. So I think that speaks for itself. I love it. Um, one of the things that we have announced is that this new version of Vzero uses agentic AI. Can you give us a tlddr of what agentic AI is? Sure. Uh it's it's it's actually very very simple. So before Vzero would really focus on just generating things for you, um Vzero's always been, you know, generating code to allow you to build full stack web apps. Um but we realized that to really make Vzero work
