Adam Cohen grew up in Toronto, in North York. He showed early signs of entrepreneurship by putting his lemonade stand on a wagon, and taking it door to door - or hustling his friends to buy souvenirs on a school field trip. His Dad was in VC, and was a big influence on his life, pushing him to succeed. Outside of professional life, he is big into sports, specifically basketball. In the past, he loved playing fantasy sports, which also influence how he built his business ventures.
Adam and his team went through several iterations of AI tooling - summarizing AI, integrating git and JIRA, etc. While they were doing this, they realized that the best way to make a difference, was to first focus on the data itself.
This is the creation story of Weave.

| 0:00.0 | Okay, guys, I got a serious update for you. |
| 0:03.0 | You heard me talk about SEMA and the Product Roadmap Radar. |
| 0:07.0 | I just caught up with Matt, who's the founder there, and he gave me the latest on what they are building. |
| 0:11.0 | And my mind is blown. |
| 0:14.0 | The team at SEMA are taking things to the next level. |
| 0:17.0 | Built around the core of the Product Roadmap Radar, i.e. code and Jira analysis, they are building |
| 0:22.9 | agent orchestration across the product lifecycle. Picture this. You hook up this system same as before, |
| 0:28.9 | i.e. integrate your repository and your backlog, Jira today. From that point, Seamus agent |
| 0:33.7 | analyzes the code base and makes suggestions as to what needs to be done next and what |
| 0:38.9 | could improve, optimize the product. Then, if those tasks are routine, the agent assigns the |
| 0:44.8 | task to a coding agent, think something like Devin, to complete the minutia while assigning |
| 0:50.1 | the human-in-the-loop tasks to engineers themselves. What you end up with is engineers focusing on building core competency features, |
| 0:58.0 | while AI handles all the rest. |
| 1:00.0 | If you're not salivating right now, I don't think you fully understand what this means. |
| 1:04.0 | But here's what I would suggest. |
| 1:06.0 | Right now, their product is in a closed beta, |
| 1:08.0 | and SEMA is looking for folks to sign up for their product intelligence |
| 1:11.6 | advisory board. This gives you the opportunity to use the product, give feedback, help shape the future |
| 1:16.8 | of what's built, oh, and not to mention additional free usage of the product potentially through the end of |
| 1:22.5 | 2026. So if that fits your workflow and toolset, you need to reach out today. |
| 1:28.8 | Go to codestory.co slash next level, N-E-X-T-L-E-V-E-L, and reach out to Matt at Seema to learn more |
| 1:37.4 | and join the Product Intelligence Advisory Board. |
