Netlify pushes agent experience as new devtool standard

Netlify CEO Matt Biilmann and Evil Martians unpack "Agent Experience" (AX), arguing that modern devtools must be optimized for AI agents rather than just human developers. The paradigm shift emphasizes machine-readable documentation, robust agent identity, and seamless orchestration.

// ANALYSIS

Agent-Led Growth is rapidly replacing Product-Led Growth as autonomous models increasingly dictate infrastructure and provisioning decisions. AX is built on four core pillars: access, context, tools, and orchestration. Startups are trading human-centric dashboards for llms.txt, JSON-LD endpoints, and cryptographic agent identities. Netlify reports a massive 10x signup spike after pivoting to AX, largely driven by "vibe coders" using autonomous agents.

Xiaomi slashes MiMo-V2.5 API prices

Xiaomi’s MiMo-V2.5 series is getting a permanent API price reset, with the company saying costs can drop by as much as 99% starting May 27, 2026. The update also simplifies billing by removing input-length pricing differences and boosts Token Plan usage by 5-8x. Xiaomi says the real driver is infrastructure efficiency: lower KV-cache movement, higher cacheable token counts, and better cluster throughput, which let it pass those savings to developers.
