Pete Hamilton and Chris Evans are cofounders of Incident.io. Incident is an incident management tool. 

We discuss:

• How they think about brand and how it comes from their deep understanding of incident culture
• Lawrence’s article asking for new macbooks that went viral
• Gallows humor in incidents 
• Why incident.io started on Heroku despite being an incident response platform—and why “shipping fast” mattered more than “scaling perfectly.”
• The benefit of building for users who are just like you
• How Incident is using GenAI
