Together AI revealed that Factory got early access to Reflection AI's Beam before launch and used the window to test it on real coding and agentic workflows, including tool-error recovery, conflict handling, and final repo verification. Factory's Zimu Li said Beam recovered well from tool errors, preserved intended changes through conflicts, and verified final repo state before reporting completion, enabling day-0 support for customers.
