Hand-picked News

Elon Musk just turned Starlink’s India delay into a very public fight.

  • Musk accused unnamed business interests of blocking Starlink, then directly questioned Reliance chairman Mukesh Ambani’s influence in India.

  • India rejected the claim, saying Starlink is at roughly the same regulatory stage as two other satellite operators and still faces security checks before getting spectrum.

  • Starlink has been trying to enter India for more than five years. It already has local infrastructure and partnerships with Jio and Airtel, but there is still no commercial launch date.

India has more than a billion internet subscribers. The stakes are huge.

For AI/tech creators: watch the regulation, not just the product launch.

Gemini is no longer just answering your company's emails; it is starting to run the workflows.

  • Google is deploying autonomous Gemini agents directly into enterprise systems to execute multi-step tasks across Workspace, Salesforce, and internal databases without human hand-holding.

  • Enterprise buyers are abandoning standalone chatbot subscriptions in favor of tools that take direct action inside existing software pipelines.

  • Google will open the underlying agent architecture to custom developer builds before the end of the quarter.

Will your core product survive when the AI interface absorbs the rest of your app's UI?

Creators and builders should audit their apps this week to identify every workflow that requires manual clicking between tools, then convert those paths into single-call API hooks.

Amazon just killed off Fire OS to turn its cheap media slabs into serious productivity hardware.

  • The tech giant unveiled three new Alexa Tablets featuring standard Android, built-in Alexa+ AI assistance, and full default access to the Google Play Store.

  • Dropping the restrictive 15-year-old Fire brand signals a pivot away from low-cost content consumption toward direct competition with Apple's iPad and workspace devices.

  • Pre-orders open this month across major global markets alongside dedicated keyboard and stylus accessories starting at $499 for the high-end 12 Pro model.

How many niche consumer app platforms will survive once mega-tech platforms stop gating their app ecosystems?

Developers should immediately verify that their Android software builds pass basic compatibility tests for widescreen tablet layouts without relying on proprietary Amazon APIs.

Blu Dot surpasses 2,000% ROAS with self-serve CTV ads

Home furniture brand Blu Dot blew up on CTV with help from Roku Ads Manager. Here’s how:

After a test campaign reached 211,000 households and achieved 1,010% ROAS, the brand went all in to promote its annual sales event. It removed age and income constraints to expand reach and shifted budget to custom audiences and retargeting, where intent was strongest.

The results speak for themselves. As Blu Dot increased their investment by 10x, ROAS jumped to 2,308% and more page-view conversions surpassed 50,000.

“For CTV campaigns, Roku has been a top performer,” said Claire Folkestad, Paid Media Strategist, Blu Dot. “Comping to our other platforms, we have seen really strong ROAS… and highly efficient CPMs, lower than any other CTV partner we've worked with.”

Using Roku Ads Manager, the campaign moved from a pilot to a permanent performance engine for the brand.
