This week on Notorious B2B, we break down the Delve story—the SOC 2 compliance startup that wasn’t actually doing compliance. What looked legit on the surface quickly turned into something bigger: a wake-up call for how trust, shortcuts, and AI are colliding in B2B.

We get into AI tools getting people banned (OpenClaw vs. Facebook), the “Death by Claude” debate and what it means for SaaS, a fully AI podcast blowing up, new moves from Anthropic, LinkedIn cracking down on scraping tools, comment-gating going off the rails, Apollo acquiring Pocus, and what layoffs at Meta and Atlassian actually signal.
