Editor's Note
Welcome to another installment of The Blitzy Blitz, a weekly newsletter showcasing what Blitzy is building. Follow along to see updates in the Open Source Enhancement Initiative and Building With Blitzy series on our blog.
The most recent experiment was Blitzy creating a Chrome extension, see below for details!
Welcome Back to The Blitzy Blitz
We’ve been heads down building nonstop since last issue. New lessons, experiments and plenty of stories to tell.
Let’s dive in!
Blitzy Built a Chrome Extension
Sam, a Blitzy GTM Engineer, created an internal tool for LinkedIn CRM integration in one weekend, saving each sales representative 8-12 hours a week.
After one Blitzy run: sales reps can click on a purple “Enrich” button on LinkedIn profiles to populate the CRM with enriched data from Clay. A corresponding Slack message with contact information is sent to the sales rep as well.
Currently in production, this backlog feature became an asset to making valuable connections.

A Successful Migration with Blitzy!
This week, Blitzy refactored zlib in Rust: one of the most ubiquitous C libraries in computing history used for data compression. The organizations that depend on zlib (effectively everyone) expects the library to keep working.
The software development community agrees migrating zlib should happen, but nobody can afford to execute.
After one run: full DEFLATE format compliance, zero unsafe in the core crate (making every CVE zlib had structurally impossible now), a drop-in C replacement.
Autonomous migration changes the math of how enterprises approach large-scale projects.
Check out how Blitzy conquered zlib here.
Events
Figma to Production Webinar
If you’re interested in accelerating product development, watch our webinar from this past Monday on the Blitzy x Figma integration.
Our team demonstrates how Blitzy is the only platform that autonomously understands and implements Figma designs into frontend code that integrates seamlessly with your background, down to the pixel.
Check out the webinar here.
Blitzy Networking Night
We hope you were able to join our Networking Night last night in Cambridge at our HQ1. We had a great time discussing how to scale GTM teams and meeting some new faces who will hopefully be joining the team soon.
Stay tuned for future quarterly events as we continue to Blitz-scale!
There's more to come: new experiments, PR spotlights, and a closer look at what's working.
Stay tuned.
