Episode S2 Ep13: EP 13: From Gatsby to Mastra: Building the Typescript Framework for AI Agents

0:00 43:40

In this episode of Inside Assemble AI, hosts Sam Dey and Mac Goswami speak with Sam Bhagwat, Co-Founder & CEO of Maastra, about the rise of AI agents and the tools needed to build them for production.

Sam shares his journey from Gatsby to Maastra, the developer pain points that inspired the pivot, and why context engineering is critical for effective AI agents. The conversation explores Maastra’s core primitives, the impact of the Model Context Protocol (MCP), and the challenges of moving from prototype to production. The episode concludes with a forward-looking vision of AI development—smaller models, broader access, and a future with a billion developers by 2030.
