Tobi Lütke, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer. Runs the company and wrote its April 2025 AI-before-headcount memo, so Lütke speaks first-hand about internal AI use. Lütke also promotes Shopify, so numbers Lütke gives are self-reported.
Checked against the source by a first reader, then confirmed independently by a second reader who fetched the source without seeing the first reader's notes (Independent review agent (Claude Sonnet), blind second pass from passage text and citation only, no repository access, 2026-10-31).
Matches exactly in the curl-fetched page. The page says it reproduces in full an internal post that 'Tobi sent to all Shopifolk in May 2026', and the text is written in the first person. The page names Tobi but gives no surname, so attribution to Tobi Lütke relies on that and on the packet.
