Jay reviews Pacto, a platform combining video calls, a Figma-like canvas, and an AI sidebar in one workspace. You can invite collaborators, upload assets, and use AI editing tools directly on the canvas. He sees it as the future of work for startups and corporate teams.

Backdoor is a website that allows you to have access to a virtual room for you and any sort of collaborators to meet, align, and, uh, of course take AI-powered actions, uh, using the agents built into the platform. If this is your first time here, my name is Jay and this is the Everyday AI channel where we teach you how you can use AI in your daily lives. So I'm going to dive right into this here, and what I see already is like this platform, to put it simply, it's like a combination of Zoom and Figma. And I think this is really cool. I like the concept of combining different kind of interfaces. I think that's probably what we're going to see more of. I'm doing a lot of, uh, confidential work for some clients doing, uh, some things that are somewhat similar. Of course, I can't say too much about that, but I think the combination of certain kind of interfaces that we have to switch between is definitely the future of work, especially when it comes to any sort of collaborative and, uh, yeah, sort of startup work and even corporate work as well. So I'm gonna dive right into, uh, Pacto, what we can do here. I'm just going to continue without my camera and microphone at the moment, but ultimately you can join a room. Once you do that, of course, you can invite other people into a room. You have access to this sort of canvas, which ultimately is like, uh, as I mentioned, it's like a Figma board. You can put things up on there, you can sort of ideate, you could do wireframes, you can just, uh, get like brand designs up on there as well. Um, you can, for example, upload assets. I'm going to explore the room first of all, but you can see here we've got, uh, me over there at the top. That's just my avatar. Of course, if I want to go on camera, I can do that. But we can see here we've got a few videos, uh, basically telling us how to bring in our assets, how to organize things, sharing and reviewing, editing things together, live edits with AI as well. So of course, any edits you want to make, you can make any sort of AI-powered edits you wish to— you, you're looking for. And they've also got this AI agent, uh, so AI assistant chat interface just there on the right, which is a pretty cool sidebar. So yeah, some really interesting demo assets they've got as well. You can upload some of yours, you can move these around, you can, you know, of course, uh, use these as references whenever you're, uh, typing in any sort of message here on the chat. Super cool interface, I have to say. And, uh, yeah, I think it's definitely worth giving a go.
I'm actually pleased to announce I've launched one of my first digital products, which is a 7-day prompting ebook. I've called it Perfecting Prompts, and it's essentially a 7-day crash course on how you can improve your prompting so that you can supercharge your productivity. So what I'm going to do is I'm gonna leave the link to Perfecting Prompts below. I put in a lot of work into it, and in there I actually include some frameworks that I teach to global corporations. Definitely check it out.
Oh, so ultimately, if you've been looking for a platform like this that allows you to collaborate with people in an even more seamless way, then yeah, definitely check out Pacto if you think it would be useful for you. You guys can watch all of these videos here they've got at the top, and of course, uh, yeah, feel free to use the chat as well. Very similar to Figma, as I mentioned. But also with that collaborative Zoom element where you can actually be on a video call with your other colleagues. In any case, yeah, definitely check out Pacto if you think it would be useful for you.
