## Resource

Genspark went from AI search startup to autonomous AI agent platform, hitting $250M ARR in 12 months with no paid ads until they bought a Super Bowl spot. Co-founder and COO Wen Sang joins Corey and Grant to explain what "AI employee" actually means, demos Genspark Claw live (including buying us coffee mid-interview), and lays out his big thesis: legacy software is becoming infrastructure while AI agents become the new interface between humans and work. We get hands-on with Workspace 4.0, Claw, and a custom agent built live for the show. • Genspark Workspace 4.0 announcement: https://www.genspark.ai/blog/genspark-ai-workspace-4 • Genspark sb-git: https://genspark.ai/sb-git/intro • OpenAI's customer story on Genspark: https://openai.com/index/genspark/ • Forbes AI 50 (2026): https://www.forbes.com/lists/ai50/ • Marc Benioff on Salesforce Headless 360 (referenced by Wen): https://x.com/Benioff • Andrej Karpathy's "wiki for agents" idea (referenced as inspiration for sb-git): https://x.com/karpathy • Wen on the DealMaker Show: https://alejandrocremades.com/wen-sang/ Try Genspark for free: https://genspark.ai Subscribe to The Neuron newsletter: https://theneuron.ai
