Why PostHog's 6th Employee Went Solo | Yakko Majuri, Railcode5 Aug30 min

Companies are handing every employee AI coding tools and calling themselves AI-native — then blocking everything those employees build. Yakko Majuri, early PostHog engineer and infrastructure lead at Doublepoint through its acquisition by Oura, just launched Railcode: a secure home for internal apps and AI agents where you build with your own tools and deploy in seconds. He gives a live demo — Railcode's first on camera — and explains why most software going forward will be internal.

Topics covered:

The "AI-forward" illusion: giving out Claude Code isn't a strategyThe one-question test: are you holding your team back?Why most software is about to go internal (and when internal tooling IS the product)The CEO who vibe codes vs. the CTO who wouldn't let him shipJoining early PostHog through the handbook: work trials, six-person teams, hackathonsFinding your startup idea by pulling the thread through your old customer notesAdvice for solo founders: build the thing that's an extension of youGuest: Yakko Majuri — founder of Railcode (railcode.dev), early PostHog engineer, Solo Founders Program member.
