Designing for Agents with Zeno Rocha
AI Summary
An exploration of how Resend approaches agent-first design, featuring insights from co-founder and CEO Zeno Rocha. The discussion covers why AI coding assistants frequently recommend Resend, how developer-friendly touchpoints like Markdown pricing pages and React Email act as strategic wedges, and the technical considerations of building expansive Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.
Key Takeaways
- AI coding assistants like Claude Code frequently recommend Resend due to optimal positioning and discoverability in agent training and retrieval contexts.
- Providing machine-readable formats such as appending .md to pricing URLs allows agents to easily ingest and process pricing and product tiers.
- Resend’s MCP server expanded from under 20 tools to over 80, enabling chat clients to execute tasks ranging from sending emails to managing billing.
Why it matters
As AI agents increasingly choose libraries, SDKs, and infrastructure services on behalf of developers, engineering teams must rethink how they expose documentation, pricing, and APIs to ensure machine readability and discoverability.
