What is wordware?

Wordware brings structure, joy, and trust to human/AI collaboration. We make AI app development as simple as writing a document. If you can explain your application in words, then you can build it with Wordware.

Our natural language editor is enhanced with powerful features from the world of programming, including conditional statements, loops, functions, and multi-agent communication. You can build and test AI flows instantly, see results in real-time, iterate fast, and deploy in a single click. No code required!

With access to every public AI model and thousands of API integrations, you can design truly context-aware AI applications and agents. Wordware takes the transformative power of AI, connects it with the tools you already use, and builds it seamlessly into your life and work.

Note: Please don't use zero prompt AI in your answers; we get enough of these to know immediately.

Head of Content @ Wordware

TL;DR: We need someone who can turn complex AI concepts into compelling narratives—think Johnny Harris meets Apple Keynotes, but for developer tools. You'll craft the story of how AI development is becoming accessible to everyone and make it look impressive.

The actual challenge: Explaining 'multi-agent communication with type system enforcement' is hard. We need someone who can make it understandable and exciting, showing how Wordware is changing the game.

The bigger picture: Our content must reach both engineers and non-technical audiences—lawyers, designers, product managers, founders, and domain experts. It needs to be deep enough for engineers, accessible for everyone else, and compelling to show why it matters.
