Hi, I'm Greg.
I co-founded SpecStory in November 2024 because I believe intent is the new source code.
Before that I was the Chief Product Officer at Pluralsight. And previously was at GitHub, Dropbox and Google.
The shift driven by frontier models, made useful by co-pilots and leading to agents will transform every business. I'm focused on accelerating that future.
I also advise AI and developer tool companies within Tola Capital's portfolio. Follow my weekly Meditations on Tech on Substack. Conduct superfast AI product discovery at gregslist.ai.
Read the O'Reilly Book I co-authored with Hamel Husain for free: AI Essentials For Tech Executives.
