Andrew Filev is the founder of Zencoder. Zencoder is building AI coding agents. In this episode, we explore the evolution from simple code completion AI to more sophisticated software engineering agents. While tools like GitHub Copilot revolutionized code suggestions, the next frontier involves AI agents that can handle complex engineering tasks and collaborate with each other through emerging protocols.The discussion dives into agent-to-agent protocols, which enable AI systems to work together autonomously on software development tasks. This advancement suggests a future where AI agents could manage entire development workflows, from requirements gathering to testing and deployment. We also touch on the importance of using slower summer periods strategically - making it an ideal time for engineering teams to evaluate their tooling, processes, and prepare for upcoming development cycles.This episode is brought to you by WorkOS.

Along the way, she shares what it was like moving from research to shipping product, how she started writing dev-focused content to demystify EVM and MEV, and why so much DevRel in Web3 misses the mark.We go deep on what great DevRel actually looks like — beyond just hackathons and bounties — and explore everything from niche TG groups and cold outreach to AI learning tools, dev onboarding trends, and the regions everyone's sleeping on (spoiler: it's not just Asia anymore).If you're serious about growing your protocol, building developer ecosystems, or just want to understand why “just having docs” won't cut it — this one's for you.Please enjoy, and as always, don't forget to subscribe, give us a five-star review, and mint the episode at pods.media/myosinxyz!
