Dreamer: the Agent OS for Everyone — David Singleton
Mar 20, 2026 · 1:04:23
David Singleton, former Stripe CTO, introduces Dreamer, a consumer platform for discovering, building, and using AI agents and agentic apps centered on a personal Sidekick that acts as both companion and kernel-like traffic cop. He demonstrates building a conference schedule app in 25 minutes via natural language, a ski trip app that splits expenses, and tools like Gmail, Google Search, and live sports data feeds. Dreamer features an open tool ecosystem where builders get paid, a private waitlist skip at dreamer.com/latentspace, and a Builder-in-Residence program with a $10,000 prize for the best tool by mid-April. Singleton explains the OS model with Sidekick as kernel and agents as users enforcing data isolation and cross-agent coordination only through Sidekick. He shares insights on tiny-team building (six-person core, 17 total), hiring engineers who collaborate with coding agents, and LLMs' current lack of taste and creativity.
