The New Standard: a talk with Raycast, Notion, and OpenAI

AUG13
18:00 · Europe / London
  • Product leaders from Raycast, Notion, and OpenAI discuss how product teams are evolving and the challenges of building modern tools.
  • This event is for product managers, developers, and operators interested in understanding emerging workflows and technology integrations.
  • The conversation focuses on current changes, mistakes, and future directions without polished presentations.

About this event

Nobody has this figured out yet. And that's the point.
The way product teams work is changing faster than anyone can document it. How you plan, how you build, how you decide what's worth building at all. The answers that worked a year ago are already outdated. The teams closest to this shift aren't the ones with the best framework. They're the ones willing to be honest about what they're still learning.
This edition of The New Standard brings together product leaders from Raycast, Notion, and OpenAI. Three companies sitting at different but deeply connected moments in how modern teams operate. Notion is where teams think and plan together. OpenAI is the capability layer making things possible that weren't before. Raycast is where that all comes together in the flow of actual work.
They're not here to present a polished take. They're here to have a real conversation about what's actually changing, what they're getting wrong, and where they think it's headed.
No slides. No keynotes. Just the people building the tools shaping how we all work, figuring it out in the open.
Speakers
Thomas Paul Mann, CEO and Co-founder @ Raycast
Ryan Nystrom, AI Lead @ Notion
Vaibhav Srivastav, Developer Relations @ OpenAI
Moderated by Dan Hollick, Design @ Cursor

Join us for our next in-person meetup in London on Tuesday 27th October.

Tara is followed by Nick Ferrel who is hands on building Agentic solutions are Focused. Nick isn't going to show us a magical "hello world" of building agents, instead he's going to talk about the final 10%, the important overlooked work that takes a great demo and makes it a production ready product. Where and When? Tuesday, October 27th Doors open at 18:00 Talks start at 19:00 AutogenAI, 123 Pentonville Rd, London N1 9LG Talk 1: Building For The Agentic Web With WebMCP AI agents are starting to use the web on our behalf, booking tickets, filling in forms and comparing products. Today most of them do it the hard way, by reading screenshots and guessing at the DOM. It works until a button moves or a layout changes, and it leaves site owners with no say in how agents interact with their product. WebMCP proposes a different approach. In this talk we'll look at what WebMCP is and how it differs from what's available today. About Tara: Tara Ojo Agyemang is a Developer Relations Engineer on the Google Chrome team, based in London. After ten years as a software engineer, she now helps developers adopt new web platform capabilities in an increasingly agentic world. Talk 2: The Last "10%" - Converting your agentic system from a demo to reliable, profitable production app We will talk through the most common gaps we've seen in production agentic systems and the most impact full ways to cover those gaps. We will dig a bit deeper into evals and observability and ask the audience for some of their pain points and interests. Lastly I will show examples of what everyone should look at for the near
