In the age of artificial intelligence
How LilysAI works
Philosophy
I believe that small teams can create big innovations.
In the productivity software market that LilysAI belongs to, there have been many companies that have become unicorns with little capital and small teams, such as Notion and Basecamp.
In this era of rapid advancement in artificial intelligence, companies that become unicorns with teams several times smaller than that will emerge. In fact, artificial intelligence companies such as Cursor AI, Perplexity, and Midjourney are growing rapidly with very small teams.
Our team also aims to manage a business that grows by creating high sales per person from the beginning rather than relying on investment . A team with high sales per person can also share more fruits with excellent talent.
Jobs will be integrated, and the ability to ‘provide what people want’ will become important.
With the advancement of artificial intelligence, the scope of development that a single engineer can handle will greatly expand, and development technology will be recognized like Excel.
Just as we don’t worry, “Can I write JavaScript without understanding assembly?” our team doesn’t worry, “Will I become dumb if I use too much AI?” Throughout history, as technology has advanced and replaced intellectual tasks, humans have always gotten smarter.
The most important thing that doesn't change is the ability to provide what people want . In order to develop and maintain competitiveness in the future, I think I should work at a company that can develop the ability to read people's minds and turn them into good products, rather than developing minor skills as an engineer.
All of our 'product engineers' work full-stack . And we're thinking about how to delegate more of our work to AI. Instead, we focus on meeting users directly, looking at statistics, planning products, and creating business outcomes.
Core Values
1️⃣ Super Fast Release
It drastically shortens the cycle of receiving feedback from users through your product.
2️⃣ Maximum User Value
Choose what adds the most value to your users.

3️⃣ Kind and Direct
Be honest in your feedback, but try to give your colleagues a sense of psychological safety.
4️⃣ Superman
I am willing to learn and do anything across job responsibilities as long as it provides value to the user.
LilysAI Team's Daily Life
This is how our team spends their daily lives
You don't have to write a single line of code
Onboarding Program
When you first join the team, you won't be writing code for a week. Instead, you'll spend time meeting users, using different products, and deeply understanding and immersing yourself in the problem.
The biggest goal of my onboarding program is to find a problem that I want to immerse myself in and solve.
🙌
A project that I am solely responsible for
One engineer is independently responsible for one project.
You can experience the entire process from user interviews to post-distribution statistical analysis, and feel firsthand what value the features you created provide to users.
💭
Weekly input sharing session
We build better products through the voice of our users. Every maker shares new user feedback they learn each week with their team, which then builds on the team’s knowledge.
Also, feel free to suggest ideas that come up from user input.
💻
Regular development meetings
We have weekly development meetings where we share our know-how on how to increase productivity with artificial intelligence.
📈

Sustainable focus
A work environment where you can exert your power
