AI engineering manager for startup teams

Top managers are expensive - startups can’t afford to hire them, since they could be hiring more developers instead. Tometo offers FAANG-level management at a fraction of the cost, reducing founder workload while increasing developer productivity.

Really nice idea. And so much to go…


As Sr EM some suggestions from side:


  • You should invest in JIRA integration

  • Currently chat is limited with 3 topics. Why? I would remove the limitations and see where it goes.

  • There are a lot of stuff EMs do so i would focus on those:

  • Prioritization matrix. Effort vs value

  • Rough estimations

  • On call schedules and duties

  • reliability reports

  • defining goals and missions

I am wondering where this product will go. Good luck!

How proactive is this engineering manager? And what kind of startup will benefit the most from this solution?

It's interesting to see a tool that doesn’t just optimize code but optimizes the way teams work together.

The ability to detect blockers and connect the right people is such an underrated feature.

This looks awesome @sparshmellow - excited to try it out and see how well it deals with nuances and individual dev dynamics

Finding out developers' bandwidth, how a project is going and so on, on top of Linear looks like an excellent use case. I tried the interactive demo, and tried a few prompts like: What is the status of the current project and does it look like we will meet the deadline? and it seems to go into a loop of asking me what details I want, even after I give those details. I'd love to try out the interactive demo again and be able to see what demo data I have to work with, so I can try relevant prompts

What a brilliant idea! Congrats, Sparsh! Can’t wait to see where Tometo AI goes.

That's an intriguing idea! It would be fascinating to explore what developments and innovations the future might hold in this area.

Hey 👋 This is one of good AI to use! It’s impressive to see a solution designed for startups. How does Tometo customize its management approach to fit the unique needs and challenges of different startups while maintaining efficiency and productivity?

Hi Sparsh,


What a great idea to bring efficiency to startup collaboration driven by AI. Really powerful when you’re working beyond a MVP and iterating fast to get to the monetizing stage. Wish something like Tometo existed when I struggled with my startup back in 2003 when collaboration tools were very much in their infancy.


I wasted a lot of money and time-to-market mired in details and lack of communication between two teams in two different countries. A solution like Tomate would have let me focus on commercializing the product and not managing its development. Best of luck Sparsh. You’re onto something. Find those early adopters and iterate away.


Best regards,


Bob Mathew

Finally! A project management sidekick that actually understands engineering workflows! Tometo feels like if Jira had a baby with ChatGPT specifically for launch coordination – that Activity Tracking feed alone just saved me 3 daily standups 😅 Can’t wait to let the AI Manager settle arguments about priority conflicts (we all know how that goes). Launch week just got 73% less chaotic!

@sparshmellow It's really great to see the demo, the integrations are so smooth. Really great product :)

Awesome mate! Love the idea and I’m sure it’s gonna be a huge success. All the best
