What if your tools shared context like your team does?

This week on Grit, Shishir Mehrotra shares how the Coda and Grammarly collaboration unlocks context as a “superpower,” reflects on his early days at Google and YouTube, and hints at a future where tools anticipate intent and amplify how we work.

He also shares how this paves the way for agent-based workflows and AI-native communication, beginning with Superhuman’s email experience.

Guest: Shishir Mehrotra, co-founder of Coda and CEO of Grammarly
