Stripe Projects launches

Last month, I wrote Agent experience about the Stripe Projects beta and how developers must now treat AI as a first-class user of their products alongside humans. Today, Stripe Projects launched during the Stripe Sessions keynote, with Chroma as one of the launch integrations. You try it now at projects.dev.
For the launch, I made a video demo of Chroma's Stripe Projects integration - take a look below. It walks through provisioning a Chroma database as a coding agent, then builds an example application on Chroma that ingests local agent logs and turns them into a searchable knowledge base.
I will be speaking tomorrow at Stripe Sessions in the developer booth from 15:30 to 16:00 about agent experience at Chroma, covering both our Stripe Projects integration and other agent-focused efforts in the company. If you are at the conference, please stop by.
