April 30, 2025 introducing Vibe Managing

With "vibe coding" trending all over the internet, we're heading into an interesting phase—where developers, increasingly reliant on AI, may struggle to explain their own code. If the machine writes most of it, how do you remember what you were vibing to last Tuesday?

The risk? A lot of wasted time trying to reverse-engineer your own decisions.

So yes, developers still need to understand their code. But maybe the bigger opportunity lies in using AI not just to write code, but to support technical decision-making.

How do we give managers clear insight into what's actually going on under the hood?

  • Got a highly specific customer support question? Just Vibe.

  • Stuck in yet another meeting built on assumptions? Just Vibe.

  • Your most experienced engineer is leaving? Just Vibe.

  • ...

It’s time we shift the hype from output to understanding.

Let’s make “Vibe Managing” a thing.

Nobody likes to write documentation. But it is a necessary need to keep your product running/scaling. Let's get rid of this pain and use AI for our boring tasks.
