- Bluesky has 47 million registered users, TechCrunch reported.
What happened: Bluesky announced at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 that its experimental Attie app can now be used to build websites, quizzes, games, polls and other interactive experiences, TechCrunch reported. Attie first offered AI-powered tools for building custom social feeds.
The details: Projects built in Attie run on the AT Protocol, the decentralized network that powers Bluesky, and are tied to the creator's identity there. Attie will suggest projects based on users' public Bluesky profiles. Users can bring their own AI model or use open-weight options; specific models were not named. CEO Toni Schneider called the feature "social vibe coding" and said "vibe coding today is kind of a single-user, solo experience." COO Rose Wang said Attie "comes with the Bluesky distribution, so it doesn't stand alone."
Background: Bluesky has 47 million registered users, though TechCrunch noted a decline in engagement as some users returned to X. Schneider, a former Automattic CEO, took over leadership on an interim basis after Jay Graber stepped down in March to become chief innovation officer. Private data support, which Schneider said developers requested most, is in alpha testing with a rollout planned by the end of the year.
What to watch: Attie remains experimental, and Bluesky has not disclosed pricing or a general availability date for the new creation features. The choice to support user-supplied models could make it a testbed for small AI-built social apps.
Our take
Community-focused builders show how AI app creation is moving beyond solo developer tools toward shared, distributed experiences.
