In this episode of High Agency, we’re live from Web Summit with Will Wilson, CEO of Antithesis. Will shares the origin story behind building a platform that tests the “impossible”, from selling FoundationDB to Apple, to assembling a stealth-mode engineering team in DC that’s redefining how we build and trust software.
We discuss how Antithesis creates testing environments that act like an oracle for your code, catching unknown bugs before they surface. Will talks about what it really takes to build deep tech, why they stayed in stealth for five years, and what happens when a team truly cares about the work and each other.
If you’ve ever written code and wondered, “Is this really going to work?”, this episode will shift your thinking on what’s possible.
