Bluesky CEO Toni Schneider talks about Attie, a new agentic social app built on Bluesky's AT Protocol that uses Claude and lets users build custom feeds

The team from Bluesky has built another app — and this time, it's not a social network, but an AI assistant that allows you to design …

    With more old ‘standard’ features on X being shut off to normal subscribers, BlueSky is starting to look a lot more feature-rich and useful, especially as it leans into AI https://techcrunch.com/...

    2/ The Atmosphere was built as an open network, so anybody could create the social experience they desired. But it's always required engineering skills to customize your feed.

    Waitlist only, more soon.

    This feels a bit like Bluesky is looking for its MySpace moment - trying to make social media easy to manipulate and experience the way you want. Hopefully if people can format their feeds in a way that feels like home, they'll actually like being on social instead of addicted

    At ATmosphereConf Bluesky Jay Graber and Paul Freeze just unveiled a new app Attie, which uses natural language to build you social feeds based on content from ATProto [image]

    1/ Today, we're excited to introduce Attie, currently as an invite-only closed beta. Attie is the first agentic social app on atproto. It's something completely new—an experiment in making building on the protocol more accessible.

    Well, this is “fun.”  And it's using Claude, which has a certain kind of reputation.  —  techcrunch.com/2026/03/28/b...

    You can give us feedback about Attie directly in the app by clicking on the megaphone icon to the right side of the feed creator.  [image]

    The bluesky address is @attie.ai and it really needs to be in the top five accounts blocked on this platform.  This is honestly some of the most tonedeaf shit I've seen from BS and thats saying something [embedded post]
  • @parismarx.com Paris Marx on bluesky
    it would be good to have a built-in custom feeds maker, but there's absolutely no reason it needs to be a chatbot [embedded post]
  • @greblin @greblin on bluesky
    wouldn't it be funny if EVERYONE blocked this Attie AI account @ bsky.app/profile/atti... before they could do anything with it [embedded post]
  • @emfields E. M. Fields on bluesky
    I still see too many users here unaware of this, and it's why we are never getting things like soft-blocking, restricted/locked accounts, or circles (and if we do, you shouldn't trust them).  —  Treat EVERYTHING you do on here INCLUDING DMs as though it is fully public (because i…

    „You can have all of these independent, decentralized pieces that work together.  With WordPress, that turned into a huge ecosystem with billions of dollars — over $10 billion a year, now — flowing through it.  (...) And this is what we're hoping for the Atmosphere", says the CEO…

    How can I block Attie?  —  How can I block Attie feeds from scraping and stealing my Bluesky content?  —  Please answer.  This tool is live on here and currently unblockable; this is against the law.

  • @mmatt.net Matt on bluesky
    i think attie is a great idea, but it's audience is the people that are low-tech knowledge which likely also means high-AI misinformation knowledge which means very anti-AI which means they'd hate your product and think it's destroying the planet with slop or whatever

    Seeing the attie demo and feeling pretty good about the core claim of my presentation that this is going to create a strong convergence in the data layer
  • @why.bsky.team @why.bsky.team on bluesky
    If you run into any bugs with Attie feel free to tag me about it, we've tested it internally for a bit but letting all sorts of new people use a thing inevitably turns stuff up.

    3/ Attie was designed by the Bluesky team to pull down that barrier, and make feed-building as easy as chatting.  You describe what you want, and it makes a customized feed for you.
