🎧 START pod: Jack Brown, Founder, Lark: “The E2E testing layer for AI-driven development.”

The way to make software faster was always: make the code happen fasterAI solved that Cursor, Claude Code, Replit...Building is nearly instant nowSo what's slow?Knowing if it actually works.When AI writes your feature, someone still has to answer: did it break everything else?That's the new bottleneck. Not creation. ValidationJack Brown is building Lark to solve exactly this. An AI QA engineer that writes tests, keeps them updated, and continuously validatesThere's the building, and then there's the thing that lives on after the buildingLark is focused on that second half‍🎙️ Jack Brown, Cofounder, Lark on Fondo START pod00:15 Building an AI QA engineer01:56 AI dramatically increased development velocity02:15 The bottleneck becomes verification02:25 Cursor writes the code.
