$30M ARR. 0 employees. Just 3 founders… and a swarm of AI agents.

Sounds like sci-fi? Meet Amos Bar-Joseph, CEO of Swan AI — and the architect of the most radical GTM model we've seen in years.

🎙️ On the latest Zero to One podcast, Amos breaks down how Swan:

→ Is Scaling to $30M+ ARR with zero headcount

→ Runs 30+ intelligent agents directly inside Slack

→ Converts LinkedIn impressions into pipeline with surgical precision

Forget headcount scaling.

Amos is pioneering “constraint-first growth”: only 3 founders, no hires — every repetitive task goes to an agent.

And it’s working. Swan now serves 50+ B2B clients (Guru, Yotpo...) with no paid ads.

What we cover in the episode:

• How Amos designed his first agent — and what it did

• Why content isn’t a brand play, it’s a pipeline engine

• The architecture behind an autonomous business OS

• What the “100× seller” model actually looks like in the wild

• The tough question: can this scale to 10×… or crack under complexity?

If you’re a founder, GTM leader, or just AI-curious — this one is unmissable.

👇 Listen, take notes, and tell us:

Would YOU trust AI agents to run your GTM?
