Vercel founder Rauch: trust is the deepest moat for a post-AGI business
soleio · x · 2026-10-30
Soleio shared a preview of a Delphi episode with Vercel founder Guillermo Rauch. Key ideas:
- "Trust will be one of the most valuable moats for a post-AGI business" — but trust is an output, not an input. It isn't earned through meetups or tactics, but through unglamorous work: security, bug fixes, simplicity, and great documentation.
- The episode also covers competing with AWS, selling to agents, building verification loops for agent evals, and choosing which SaaS tools to replace.
