1 00:02:42.360 00:02:43.500 Miguel de Veyra: Top, mate.

2 00:02:45.990 00:02:46.650 Casie Aviles: Hey!

3 00:02:51.060 00:02:54.459 Miguel de Veyra: I’m testing the image analysis stuff for bull parts.

4 00:02:57.760 00:02:59.870 Casie Aviles: Nice. How’d you get it to work.

5 00:03:01.320 00:03:10.279 Miguel de Veyra: Basically separate the process. It’s easier to process the image. First, st get what it is, just send it all together to any. Then.

6 00:03:11.490 00:03:14.660 Casie Aviles: So so you handle it from the front end side.

7 00:03:14.660 00:03:16.189 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, locally, first.st

8 00:03:16.563 00:03:17.310 Casie Aviles: Locally locally.

9 00:03:17.310 00:03:29.409 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, yeah, that’s the fastest way we can do it. And you know, no setup or just call Gpt. 4. 0, hey, analyze this image. It’s in there. But yeah, that’s what I’m working on right now. Basically, I mean, it’s working. But the prompt

10 00:03:29.550 00:03:31.889 Miguel de Veyra: I, wanna you know, perfect it.

11 00:03:32.820 00:03:36.650 Casie Aviles: Yeah, I wanna see what is new.

12 00:03:41.370 00:03:42.140 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah.

13 00:03:52.424 00:03:54.789 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah. Now, this is better visible.

14 00:04:12.150 00:04:12.980 Casie Aviles: Okay.

15 00:04:15.640 00:04:17.989 Miguel de Veyra: Alright! Let me check Utam’s calendar.

16 00:04:20.170 00:04:25.609 Miguel de Veyra: He has a meeting today and autumns here.

17 00:04:32.960 00:04:33.900 Uttam Kumaran: Hello!

18 00:04:34.400 00:04:35.209 Miguel de Veyra: Hey? Mate?

19 00:04:35.450 00:04:36.230 Miguel de Veyra: Morning morning.

20 00:04:36.250 00:04:38.179 Uttam Kumaran: Hey! How are you? How are you feeling.

21 00:04:39.038 00:04:48.761 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, pretty good. Finished a lot yesterday. I mean, I was. I was in mode earlier today, but I just continued coding for pool parts.

22 00:04:49.150 00:04:50.410 Uttam Kumaran: I know I can tell.

23 00:04:50.640 00:04:52.890 Miguel de Veyra: I was like I should have.

24 00:04:52.890 00:04:55.809 Uttam Kumaran: We’re on a roll. We’re on a roll with this team. I’m really glad.

25 00:04:56.020 00:05:00.819 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah. And then I found like, it’s it’s a bit of a cheese strut. But

26 00:05:00.970 00:05:14.479 Miguel de Veyra: you know that’s why it was very fast. What I cause, you know, it would require us to set up a back end or whatever. So what I realized was what we can just send it like, hey, analyze this, and then just send it to any 10 whatever we analyze.

27 00:05:16.860 00:05:17.939 Uttam Kumaran: What do you mean?

28 00:05:17.940 00:05:19.070 Miguel de Veyra: Like the image.

29 00:05:19.450 00:05:22.159 Miguel de Veyra: Send it via first, st like, Hey, you know.

30 00:05:22.160 00:05:23.010 Uttam Kumaran: No.

31 00:05:23.010 00:05:27.519 Miguel de Veyra: And then that way, our image analysis is actually better, because there’s a separate prompt for that.

32 00:05:30.220 00:05:31.649 Uttam Kumaran: I see. Okay.

33 00:05:31.900 00:05:37.380 Miguel de Veyra: So it’s like 2 separate, you know, prompts, which is, I’d say it’s a lot better. It’s a lot cleaner, too.

34 00:05:39.670 00:05:43.199 Miguel de Veyra: and then, if there’s no image, of course. Just don’t send it. Just don’t analyze anything.

35 00:05:55.970 00:05:58.361 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, must office here. Okay, cool.

36 00:05:59.370 00:06:03.960 Uttam Kumaran: I think. What Casey ran it last time. Mustafa, you want to run this time.

37 00:06:04.460 00:06:06.959 Mustafa Raja: Oh, yeah, let let me do that.

38 00:06:07.400 00:06:08.169 Uttam Kumaran: Thank you.

41 00:06:35.000 00:06:40.269 Mustafa Raja: yeah. So then, let’s start from internal views. So I guess this is done.

42 00:06:44.936 00:06:52.779 Uttam Kumaran: Yes, so can we? Can we put this into the next? Yeah. Let’s mark this as done. I haven’t tested it yet.

43 00:06:53.500 00:06:54.420 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, on my side.

44 00:06:55.190 00:06:55.550 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.

45 00:06:55.980 00:06:58.130 Uttam Kumaran: So can we leave it.

46 00:06:58.340 00:06:59.289 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, that’s even.

47 00:06:59.290 00:07:04.289 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, okay, sorry I was. I had. I was trying to do it yesterday. But dude, I was so tired I had to.

54 00:07:25.420 00:07:32.859 Miguel de Veyra: yeah, this is done pretty much. I think this is now on Casey’s ticket. I think this one we can actually move to done, depending on what Casey says.

55 00:07:36.400 00:07:37.560 Miguel de Veyra: Okay, see you there.

56 00:07:38.651 00:07:47.929 Casie Aviles: Sorry. Yeah. I mean for the slack. I’m just connecting the tools. So I I’m actually going to test right after I’ve connected the

57 00:07:48.620 00:07:50.730 Casie Aviles: like, the super base table to.

75 00:08:36.914 00:08:43.000 Uttam Kumaran: And I think if we have 10 min the end of this, I’ll talk a little bit about how I’m thinking about this platform longer. Term.

76 00:08:43.260 00:08:43.980 Miguel de Veyra: Okay.

77 00:08:48.090 00:08:52.029 Miguel de Veyra: this is, yeah. A wish. I have a pr, if you could review it, please.

78 00:08:52.800 00:08:55.560 Awaish Kumar: I have reviewed it. I’m waiting for you.

79 00:08:55.560 00:08:58.349 Miguel de Veyra: No, this, this is a new one. The adjustments I made it.

82 00:09:06.404 00:09:20.990 Mustafa Raja: And for this one, let’s keep it here. Today. I’m going to check it on Daxter. I want to make sure, before moving it to done that. It’s working on Daxter as well. It’s working perfectly on local setup, though.

83 00:09:21.540 00:09:22.600 Mustafa Raja: Oh, this one!

84 00:09:24.460 00:09:27.459 Mustafa Raja: So I believe this is Miguel.

85 00:09:28.178 00:09:51.470 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, this one is pretty much done. We’ve already deployed it. We I didn’t use whisper because it has too much setup. But basically, right now, there’s Kr voice and us English voice, and you can just alternate. It works pretty well for English. Obviously, I can’t test Korean. I tried the Google translate in O Openai. My mic is blocking it for whatever reason, because it’s automated voice.

86 00:09:51.470 00:09:54.639 Casie Aviles: I tried the Korean one. But yeah, I used.

87 00:09:55.280 00:10:00.079 Casie Aviles: I use chat, gpt to translate, and I did the voice thing.

88 00:10:00.779 00:10:06.369 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, I was able to pick it up. But I I can. I’m not super sure of the translations, but.

89 00:10:06.480 00:10:08.089 Casie Aviles: Yeah, I was able to book.

90 00:10:08.470 00:10:08.990 Miguel de Veyra: Okay.

92 00:10:09.610 00:10:15.159 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, so yeah, I, I think this one, we can move to

93 00:10:15.980 00:10:18.800 Miguel de Veyra: Pr review or internal review utham

94 00:10:19.580 00:10:21.189 Miguel de Veyra: before we send it out right.

95 00:10:21.190 00:10:23.930 Uttam Kumaran: Let’s do. Let’s do internal review. Yeah, that’s fine.

96 00:10:23.930 00:10:24.770 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, okay.

124 00:12:05.140 00:12:10.690 Uttam Kumaran: So let’s move. Let’s move this one out of the cycle. Can can you move it to 8.

137 00:13:17.110 00:13:21.130 Uttam Kumaran: secret scanners on, Github, do you guys, do you use any of those.

138 00:13:22.530 00:13:23.980 Miguel de Veyra: I think we have one duxter.

139 00:13:24.790 00:13:28.850 Uttam Kumaran: I basically want to scan our repos for secrets and stuff.

140 00:13:29.180 00:13:30.840 Mustafa Raja: I believe getting pushed in.

141 00:13:32.860 00:13:35.130 Awaish Kumar: Do you mean sync, or something like that?

142 00:13:35.650 00:13:37.394 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, I just think,

143 00:13:38.260 00:13:40.680 Uttam Kumaran: No! No! For secrets, for secret scanning.

144 00:13:40.850 00:13:41.330 Mustafa Raja: This.

145 00:13:41.330 00:13:46.740 Awaish Kumar: Yeah, like, it will check all the what you’re saying. Now.

146 00:13:47.010 00:13:51.449 Awaish Kumar: if there are any secrets which are exposed in our Gito maples right.

147 00:13:51.450 00:13:57.289 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, I think Aishi don’t. Don’t you have this for Daxter, cause I can’t publish anything on Dagster. If

148 00:13:57.410 00:13:59.899 Miguel de Veyra: there’s like a open AI key or anything.

149 00:14:00.770 00:14:02.999 Awaish Kumar: No, no, he! What he means is that

150 00:14:03.570 00:14:06.849 Awaish Kumar: if you accidentally put the secret in the code.

151 00:14:10.020 00:14:11.720 Awaish Kumar: so in the indexter, like

152 00:14:11.850 00:14:20.000 Awaish Kumar: we, we are not looking for it. We are not scanning the code right? It’s just that we we are trying to read it from environment variables.

153 00:14:20.600 00:14:24.570 Awaish Kumar: but mistakenly, if you write it hard coded in the file.

154 00:14:24.570 00:14:25.930 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, yeah, it blocks it, right?

155 00:14:25.930 00:14:28.140 Awaish Kumar: Right? So that’s we want to scan.

156 00:14:28.570 00:14:35.560 Miguel de Veyra: I indexter it blocked mine when I when I added the when I accidentally put the open AI key on the file, it blocked it. I can’t.

157 00:14:35.560 00:14:36.230 Uttam Kumaran: Wow!

158 00:14:37.000 00:14:41.629 Awaish Kumar: So, yeah, like, there was like I did a

159 00:14:42.490 00:14:50.149 Awaish Kumar: a pipeline itself get of actions, which is which call, which is which is called like Code Ql, or something like that. Maybe.

160 00:14:51.650 00:14:53.570 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, yeah, like, I had to fix that.

161 00:14:53.820 00:14:58.529 Miguel de Veyra: Okay, yeah, I think we can just do that on the the demo. Ui, too.

162 00:15:06.620 00:15:07.270 Mustafa Raja: Hey!

163 00:15:09.340 00:15:20.639 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah. Okay. Demo site security. This one we might have to move to next week with them. This is basically limiting on local storage. How many times users can communicate, so we don’t get spammed.

164 00:15:20.640 00:15:22.749 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, yeah, let’s move it to next week.

165 00:15:24.850 00:15:29.750 Uttam Kumaran: And then how hard is it for us to add some sort of a

166 00:15:31.100 00:15:34.759 Uttam Kumaran: email like Google Oauth to the internal site.

167 00:15:35.880 00:15:39.789 Mustafa Raja: Is anyone here done? Google off? Yeah, I have done it.

168 00:15:40.890 00:15:43.809 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, yeah, cause that way.

169 00:15:44.360 00:15:49.170 Uttam Kumaran: Like, I mean, it’s literally all our Zoom Meetings. I would rather it just be anyone with Brainforge.

170 00:15:49.170 00:15:52.879 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, we can do it with the super pace.

171 00:15:54.430 00:15:57.039 Uttam Kumaran: Nice. Okay, yeah. I was gonna say that, or firebase or something.

172 00:15:57.040 00:16:03.859 Mustafa Raja: Then we then we’ll have all our users within super base, and we are already using the that so super convenient. I think.

173 00:16:04.060 00:16:05.409 Miguel de Veyra: Can just do that.

174 00:16:06.160 00:16:09.069 Mustafa Raja: Okay. So, Avesh, I believe this is yours.

175 00:16:12.420 00:16:13.850 Miguel de Veyra: That’s Loki tied to.

176 00:16:13.850 00:16:21.970 Awaish Kumar: You know, like, from my side, I have already, like, updated the polyatomic

177 00:16:23.280 00:16:26.110 Awaish Kumar: to to get the data every 4 h. So we are. I’m just.

178 00:16:26.420 00:16:29.619 Awaish Kumar: We are just. We just have to merge them against Pr.

179 00:16:29.840 00:16:30.630 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, okay.

180 00:16:30.630 00:16:31.340 Awaish Kumar: Okay.

181 00:16:32.070 00:16:35.180 Mustafa Raja: Okay, okay. So I believe we are done here.

182 00:16:35.180 00:16:40.670 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, I think. And then for what about the client stuff? Should we also discuss those.

183 00:16:40.670 00:16:50.917 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, let me can you? Yeah. So let’s let’s actually talk about that. I’ll pull it up on my side. So I’m I’m starting to trying to be a little bit mindful of

184 00:16:55.715 00:16:58.554 Uttam Kumaran: I’m trying to be a little bit mindful of

185 00:16:59.510 00:17:05.059 Uttam Kumaran: how what everybody is working on, cause. I know some of us are working on internal and external stuff.

186 00:17:05.060 00:17:05.680 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah.

187 00:17:07.650 00:17:13.160 Uttam Kumaran: So this is like what our current

188 00:17:13.290 00:17:16.570 Uttam Kumaran: workload looks like. This is Casey Miguel Mustafa.

189 00:17:16.910 00:17:31.824 Uttam Kumaran: So right right now, Casey and Miguel, you guys are on other clients like Casey. You have off the record and ABC work, Miguel, you also have full parts work so kind of like 2 suggestions. And of course, like

190 00:17:32.690 00:17:43.760 Uttam Kumaran: client, I’m gonna repeat this in a bunch of channels. Client work takes precedence over internal work. I know the internal work is more fun and like kind of probably more interesting. But like

191 00:17:44.510 00:17:47.650 Uttam Kumaran: we like, that’s gonna be more important for now.

192 00:17:48.077 00:18:00.079 Uttam Kumaran: So kind of 2 changes that we’re going to be making one. I asked. I asked Amber to pick out a couple of tickets from ABC. Maybe, Miguel, you can help on that. I also think Mustafa

193 00:18:00.448 00:18:11.979 Uttam Kumaran: we like. I I think it would be great for you to come. Help on some client work. I’m trying to think about like. I don’t know, Casey Miguel, like what do you think would be more helpful like help on Apc.

194 00:18:12.100 00:18:18.830 Uttam Kumaran: Help on pool parts? Help on off the record like, what’s your back.

195 00:18:18.830 00:18:23.109 Miguel de Veyra: I’m not sure, but I think Casey mentioned a bit that regarding Otr.

196 00:18:28.400 00:18:33.549 Casie Aviles: I mean it. It’s mostly just, you know, automations for Otr, so

197 00:18:34.460 00:18:41.739 Casie Aviles: I think my my only for me, the only challenge there is just getting the stuff I need from from Craig.

198 00:18:45.440 00:18:46.340 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

199 00:18:47.540 00:18:53.590 Casie Aviles: But yeah, since we have like meetings every week that should help with that.

200 00:18:55.630 00:19:02.669 Casie Aviles: yeah, for this week, it’s yeah. I haven’t done much work after the meeting on, for Otr.

201 00:19:02.780 00:19:05.010 Uttam Kumaran: BBC. I’ve done.

202 00:19:05.120 00:19:09.120 Casie Aviles: Work yesterday. And yeah, and.

203 00:19:09.120 00:19:13.059 Uttam Kumaran: ABC. And pool parts are definitely the priority over Otr. Although.

204 00:19:13.450 00:19:16.460 Miguel de Veyra: We meet with Otr every Tuesday, so.

205 00:19:16.820 00:19:21.029 Uttam Kumaran: Probably Monday is probably gonna be the day to do a lot of that or tomorrow.

206 00:19:22.330 00:19:24.959 Uttam Kumaran: I guess I’m more. I’m what I’m asking is like

207 00:19:25.100 00:19:28.529 Uttam Kumaran: Casey. You’re probably out of everybody, probably the most.

208 00:19:29.320 00:19:32.349 Uttam Kumaran: I mean, I guess. Probably the you’re the most occupied.

209 00:19:32.730 00:19:37.060 Uttam Kumaran: So I just wanna make sure that, like you’re not overwhelmed, or

210 00:19:37.220 00:19:40.819 Uttam Kumaran: we can spread some of the love to Mustafa. For sure.

211 00:19:41.950 00:19:45.079 Casie Aviles: Okay, yeah, maybe. ABC, I guess if I had to pick.

212 00:19:47.540 00:19:48.820 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, okay, great.

213 00:19:49.340 00:19:58.700 Uttam Kumaran: So let me let me talk to. And then, Miguel, how do you like? How do you feel? I think we’re gonna start working on more pool part stuff. I just got a bunch of requirements today.

214 00:19:58.700 00:20:00.380 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, yeah, I saw in one of the.

215 00:20:00.703 00:20:06.209 Uttam Kumaran: I’m still gonna try to probably use a little bit of your help on some sales work.

216 00:20:08.180 00:20:11.810 Uttam Kumaran: So like, maybe I loop Mustafa into the ABC stuff.

217 00:20:12.560 00:20:16.460 Uttam Kumaran: And that way you’re open with me, and in case we get new clients.

218 00:20:16.660 00:20:23.189 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, yeah, yeah. And then, also, I think one of the things we need to work on is the retrieval stuff. Because that’s getting pushed to.

219 00:20:23.190 00:20:24.270 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, yeah.

220 00:20:26.070 00:20:26.580 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

221 00:20:26.580 00:20:27.409 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, sure.

222 00:20:27.800 00:20:28.449 Uttam Kumaran: So

223 00:20:30.050 00:20:35.074 Uttam Kumaran: like, though. So what I’m basically what I’m looking at here just to give you a sense.

224 00:20:35.880 00:20:41.469 Uttam Kumaran: I just look at like, I set this up today. I just look at like, okay, what tickets are on everybody’s plate.

225 00:20:41.630 00:20:46.039 Uttam Kumaran: for example, like, I’m looking at. Okay, like, what’s in the cycle right now.

226 00:20:46.300 00:20:53.680 Uttam Kumaran: But there’s all these in the cycle I’m looking at like, okay, there’s a bunch of stuff to get reviewed. Okay, these all look good, because these are kind of total kind of end.

227 00:20:53.930 00:20:56.329 Uttam Kumaran: And then I’m like, Okay, it’s Thursday. So

228 00:20:57.160 00:21:09.159 Uttam Kumaran: for me, I’m like, we have a bunch of stuff for ABC that I don’t know whether, like, I’m sort of like, okay, let’s see if this gets done. And then we have these that I’m like, okay, we need to try to get them done. That’s sort of what I’m looking like. So

229 00:21:09.280 00:21:13.690 Uttam Kumaran: I’m I’m gonna for me. I’m gonna I’m gonna basically try to help.

230 00:21:13.810 00:21:17.379 Uttam Kumaran: so that there’s not like much competition between client work and this like.

231 00:21:17.590 00:21:20.970 Uttam Kumaran: I will start to observe how much time is going to each

232 00:21:21.542 00:21:30.620 Uttam Kumaran: but I. But I wanna make sure that no one here feels super overwhelmed, and that that ideally, we at least have one primary and one backup person in every client.

233 00:21:30.730 00:21:34.290 Uttam Kumaran: but that we can all take time off. And it’s not gonna be a huge problem.

234 00:21:37.080 00:21:46.380 Uttam Kumaran: So let me speak. Let me speak with Amber, and I will get her. This. I’ll I’ll mention that, like Mustafa, you’re free. It’s actually really interesting work like, it’s like.

235 00:21:46.640 00:21:53.200 Uttam Kumaran: it’s a ton. It’s a ton of rag work. Google, Google Workspace work.

236 00:21:54.920 00:21:57.079 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, really interesting integration work. So.

237 00:21:57.080 00:21:57.720 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.

238 00:21:59.070 00:21:59.830 Uttam Kumaran: Perfect.

239 00:22:00.040 00:22:00.920 Miguel de Veyra: Okay. Great.

240 00:22:01.190 00:22:02.239 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. Go ahead.

241 00:22:02.240 00:22:14.850 Miguel de Veyra: I have a question with them regarding the the Korean thing. If that closest will they cause? I know it’s we’re working with another company Us. Company for a Korean company there. Right? How will that work.

242 00:22:16.980 00:22:18.900 Uttam Kumaran: I have no clue.

243 00:22:19.520 00:22:23.360 Uttam Kumaran: I don’t know anything yet. This is purely just to find

244 00:22:25.200 00:22:27.040 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah. And then we can even target sales.

245 00:22:27.542 00:22:29.050 Miguel de Veyra: No, in Austin.

246 00:22:30.170 00:22:35.440 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I mean, i 1, we’re gonna we’ll put this up as a demo. But like, yeah, honestly, this is a sort of like a.

247 00:22:35.660 00:22:38.970 Uttam Kumaran: we’re gonna I’m gonna send it to them today and be like, Yo, we built this like.

248 00:22:39.580 00:22:42.989 Uttam Kumaran: your other guys suck like you should come work work with us.

249 00:22:43.380 00:22:44.520 Miguel de Veyra: Okay. Okay.

250 00:22:46.780 00:22:47.540 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

251 00:22:53.222 00:23:02.310 Miguel de Veyra: Sorry we are. We are sorry I forgot this, for pool parts were assigned for 15 or 20 HA week, and how much should like my maximum amount of hours a week on that client.

252 00:23:05.870 00:23:09.140 Uttam Kumaran: We don’t have a limit.

253 00:23:09.740 00:23:10.200 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, okay.

254 00:23:10.200 00:23:14.739 Uttam Kumaran: But you should aim between 10 to 20 h.

255 00:23:14.980 00:23:15.940 Miguel de Veyra: Okay, so half to.

256 00:23:15.940 00:23:23.160 Uttam Kumaran: I’m I’m I’m doing a good job at like sending them like, Hey, this is gonna get done by like this Friday by next Friday by next Friday. So

257 00:23:23.610 00:23:28.889 Uttam Kumaran: let’s just work together, and then just try to see how accurate you can be on the on the due dates.

258 00:23:29.040 00:23:29.870 Miguel de Veyra: Okay. Yeah. Sure.

259 00:23:30.139 00:23:37.140 Uttam Kumaran: But tell me, like as long as we’re pushing something out steadily every 2 or 3 days, it’s gonna be totally fine. There’ll be no stress.

260 00:23:37.140 00:23:38.070 Miguel de Veyra: Okay. Okay. Yeah. Sure.

261 00:23:38.070 00:23:43.170 Uttam Kumaran: And then also, on the days that we’re not, that there’s nothing coming out, I call them, and I buy us more time. So.

262 00:23:44.060 00:23:44.810 Miguel de Veyra: Okay.

263 00:23:45.920 00:23:50.020 Uttam Kumaran: One thing that I wanted to talk about briefly was

264 00:23:54.770 00:24:03.760 Uttam Kumaran: sort of like what I’m thinking about for the like internal platform. Almost so

265 00:24:04.190 00:24:05.589 Uttam Kumaran: everyone can see this.

266 00:24:06.500 00:24:07.370 Miguel de Veyra: It leaks.

267 00:24:08.660 00:24:10.220 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, sorry wrong

268 00:24:22.690 00:24:24.639 Uttam Kumaran: So right now we have

269 00:24:26.160 00:24:31.379 Uttam Kumaran: This like internal tools, database.

270 00:24:32.740 00:24:33.120 Miguel de Veyra: Is not.

271 00:24:33.120 00:24:39.389 Uttam Kumaran: Actually like, I think we’re gonna end up making this some sort of like workspace platform just for brainforge

272 00:24:40.235 00:24:53.384 Uttam Kumaran: right? Like we have this notion tool that I think we developed a while ago. That’s like chatting over notion. But we also now have a couple of different things. We have our slack agents we have

273 00:24:53.870 00:25:07.080 Uttam Kumaran: the clay and Hubspot related automations. We have a zoom search. And so what’s probably gonna happen with the Zoom search is that we will start to expand this to actually be like

274 00:25:07.490 00:25:12.290 Uttam Kumaran: basically like the home. For like brain forge automations.

275 00:25:12.410 00:25:20.749 Uttam Kumaran: right? So to give you a couple of examples. If you, if you want to come in here and say I want to go to the pool parts, chat, bot, and I want to chat with it.

276 00:25:20.940 00:25:26.359 Uttam Kumaran: You can come in here, go to our client list, open up a specific client and chat directly there.

277 00:25:26.510 00:25:31.179 Uttam Kumaran: Let’s say, okay, I’m having a sales meeting right like yesterday, for example, I had a meeting with this guy, Hector.

278 00:25:31.400 00:25:34.710 Uttam Kumaran: and I needed to follow up. So what I did is I went into this meeting.

279 00:25:35.060 00:25:53.660 Uttam Kumaran: I copied the transcript from here. I then went into the other meeting. I copied the transcript from there, and I put it into Chat Gpt, and then I got out a proposal in like 10 min. That’s something that we can facilitate here because we’re going to be working on multi select Zoom Meeting chat right? So I could go here. Search for Hector.

280 00:25:54.540 00:25:59.190 Uttam Kumaran: I can click on both of these, and then I can open up a chat window right? So

281 00:25:59.648 00:26:16.909 Uttam Kumaran: the other thing is like, we wanna say, cool. I wanna go. I wanna go add something to our account based research right? Going into Hubspot and doing it is actually so annoying. And it’s hubspot like really ugly. Instead, we’re gonna have something for sale. So we’re gonna just start to add our tools here.

282 00:26:17.320 00:26:29.390 Uttam Kumaran: To allow people to do things like, Hey, I want to get feedback right? So maybe the slack bots in here, but it’s also in in. It’s also in slack. It’s also here that gives you feedback on how you perform this week.

283 00:26:29.530 00:26:32.230 Miguel de Veyra: So there’s like a some sort of a dashboard here.

284 00:26:32.530 00:26:52.245 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, something like that. Where, like our tools have a home? Right? And so when when new people get on boarded, they get onboarded to our brain forge set of tools, which is like how we, how people can go in here and chat with a specific meeting, how they can go in here and chat with a specific client. Bot how they can interact with

285 00:26:52.690 00:27:17.989 Uttam Kumaran: with sales, bots or project management bots. Or you know, things like that. For example, one of the things that we’ll do here is we’ll do something around like, Hey generate, follow up. So we’ll have easy buttons, like things that people commonly do generate, follow ups, generate tickets. Like, you know. I even have a bunch of these prompts now, which is like a coach like, give me feedback on on what I could have done better in this meeting.

286 00:27:18.624 00:27:27.985 Uttam Kumaran: Right? So this will sort of become the help cause cause you think about it. We now have slack. We have notion we have Google drive, we have

287 00:27:28.810 00:27:34.289 Uttam Kumaran: linear. And so even though that’s not that many tools, it’s still a lot of tools.

288 00:27:34.420 00:27:42.840 Uttam Kumaran: And so we want to try to find a way for people to just have one place that’s like a brain forge specific tool. We’re basically building like.

289 00:27:42.990 00:28:12.370 Uttam Kumaran: like, you know, just the brain forge platform, right? Or this is basically how anybody. This is actually the advantage beyond just the fact that we are great engineers, and that we do great client work. This is our edge right? This is our edge. And why, being a brain forge engineer is actually more of an advantage. And being like a accenture engineer or an average consultant, because the average consultancies don’t have software that we’ve built for ourselves that serve our needs every day.

290 00:28:12.838 00:28:17.460 Uttam Kumaran: And so that’s the edge. And this is what helps us get more people because

291 00:28:17.880 00:28:29.860 Uttam Kumaran: people know that if they work for us. They’re not gonna be having to do like boring stuff, like taking transcripts, listening to them, writing all these tickets like you can immediately go here and do that like

292 00:28:30.100 00:28:41.889 Uttam Kumaran: this is a partly a recruiting tool. Second, this allows us to build more margin, right? So we can work for more clients in parallel. We can actually deliver faster for them.

293 00:28:42.438 00:28:49.760 Uttam Kumaran: And so we all will make more money and build a company up like that’s that’s really the the goal here.

294 00:28:50.590 00:28:57.149 Miguel de Veyra: Can can I work with and on this cause I think I’ll need her design stuff for this.

295 00:28:57.690 00:29:02.389 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. So I’m gonna actually right now, we’re gonna keep working a little bit piecemeal

296 00:29:03.480 00:29:07.479 Uttam Kumaran: on just getting the core functionality out. And then we’ll start to talk about

297 00:29:07.690 00:29:14.540 Uttam Kumaran: this. We’ll do a larger sort of product requirements, Doc, on like the larger platform.

298 00:29:14.980 00:29:19.959 Uttam Kumaran: I think, for now, because if we start to work on larger thing. It’s gonna slow down.

299 00:29:20.220 00:29:20.599 Miguel de Veyra: I think the.

300 00:29:20.600 00:29:28.320 Uttam Kumaran: The pace at which we’re working is fine, like, it doesn’t need to be perfect. I want to get out the core functionality like, okay. Now, we now we know how to talk to linear

301 00:29:28.500 00:29:30.559 Uttam Kumaran: right now we know to talk to S. 3.

302 00:29:31.260 00:29:40.921 Uttam Kumaran: Now we know how to talk to. We we’ve learned how we can talk to zoom. We now know how to pipe transcripts to here. We’re doing some sort of state management session management, right? Like

303 00:29:41.370 00:29:50.919 Uttam Kumaran: we have the building blocks. So that’s the whole point of like all this work that we’ve been doing is that we’re building building blocks. Whether it’s slack or here, it doesn’t matter. We have the core functionality.

304 00:29:50.920 00:29:51.600 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah.

305 00:29:51.720 00:29:54.589 Uttam Kumaran: Then we’ll start to work on the broader platform right? Because

306 00:29:55.040 00:29:59.480 Uttam Kumaran: cause like Casey, for example, all this work for Zoom we did a while ago. Right? But the problem is, it’s like.

307 00:29:59.480 00:29:59.940 Casie Aviles: Yeah.

308 00:29:59.940 00:30:02.200 Uttam Kumaran: It needed to get to the form factor

309 00:30:02.350 00:30:07.030 Uttam Kumaran: right? And now you’re gonna see, the adoption is gonna go crazy like everybody’s using this

310 00:30:07.150 00:30:15.179 Uttam Kumaran: right? So. But then we also want to prioritize analytics. Like, we’re, we’re the we are building a product for our company, right? So

311 00:30:15.340 00:30:23.430 Uttam Kumaran: the the company is our client. So we will. We’ll start to do analytics. We’ll start to do like we’ll measure who’s using it? How often?

312 00:30:24.800 00:30:32.800 Uttam Kumaran: We’ll start to estimate time saved. But like I just kind of wanted to set the stage for like what I was thinking with with sort of all this.

313 00:30:33.290 00:30:35.400 Uttam Kumaran: all this work that that we’re doing.

314 00:30:36.070 00:30:37.130 Miguel de Veyra: Okay. Yeah.

315 00:30:39.590 00:30:44.239 Uttam Kumaran: Does that make sense to everyone kind of like how I know we’ve been sort of working piecemeal, and maybe there isn’t.

316 00:30:44.420 00:30:48.729 Uttam Kumaran: It was like, oh, we’re working like a hundred different things, but it’s all come kind of coming together.

317 00:30:49.020 00:30:49.710 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah.

318 00:30:49.710 00:30:50.160 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.

319 00:30:50.160 00:30:55.479 Miguel de Veyra: We probably need some sort of like central document where everything is laid out right.

320 00:30:55.480 00:31:00.429 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I’ll I’ll I’ll be writing like a I mean, I don’t know if if you’ve ever seen I mean

321 00:31:02.620 00:31:06.490 Uttam Kumaran: like this is our like, Brd template.

322 00:31:06.830 00:31:07.620 Miguel de Veyra: I haven’t seen that.

323 00:31:07.620 00:31:12.029 Uttam Kumaran: I’ll you’ll see like I’ll write like a 10 page document on what we’re gonna do here.

324 00:31:12.391 00:31:23.640 Uttam Kumaran: I have it in my head. But like this is something that I’ve wanted to do since we started. The company is, and also for a wish. This is also basically like, how do we weave in data platform sort of stuff here.

325 00:31:23.890 00:31:30.179 Uttam Kumaran: like, I think, like, there’s a lot of opportunity to build internal tooling that works for us.

326 00:31:30.300 00:31:38.089 Uttam Kumaran: And that helps us speed. But like this is also where look, I think, out of some of these we’ll find some opportunities to deploy some of this for clients.

327 00:31:38.543 00:31:49.479 Uttam Kumaran: But ideally, the initial goal is that it serves us and allows us to to work smarter, you know. Not harder. So yeah, I’ll be working on a large, doc, and like the on the dock, we’ll go slow, because

328 00:31:49.610 00:31:52.929 Uttam Kumaran: this will set the stage for probably the next, like 2 quarters of work.

329 00:31:53.590 00:31:54.749 Miguel de Veyra: Okay, yeah, I agree.

330 00:31:59.130 00:31:59.790 Casie Aviles: And.

331 00:31:59.790 00:32:04.989 Uttam Kumaran: Cause we will. I also will start to work on like fine tuning models to our different voice.

332 00:32:05.160 00:32:09.979 Uttam Kumaran: to our brand, like we’ll work on some beefier technical stuff, for sure.

333 00:32:09.980 00:32:10.600 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah.

334 00:32:14.098 00:32:26.580 Miguel de Veyra: Sorry one of the other things there, should we on the website? Should we have something like a cause, a general chat? But something like voice flow, that’s always, you know, on the bottom right of the page.

335 00:32:28.280 00:32:29.210 Miguel de Veyra: But now.

336 00:32:29.550 00:32:35.080 Uttam Kumaran: Where? Oh, on the on the website. Yeah, I will do that, too. That’s in the backlog for design.

337 00:32:35.630 00:32:36.699 Miguel de Veyra: Okay. Okay.

338 00:32:36.700 00:32:37.890 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, we’ll do that.

339 00:32:37.890 00:32:44.250 Miguel de Veyra: I think I’m thinking we can probably put the brain forge. Gpt like the 4 0. 1 there just for now.

340 00:32:44.250 00:32:46.120 Uttam Kumaran: Yes, yes.

341 00:32:46.120 00:32:50.249 Miguel de Veyra: Okay, yeah, we could. Probably I, I can probably put that up in like 3 points or something.

342 00:32:53.900 00:32:54.800 Miguel de Veyra: Okay.

343 00:32:56.630 00:32:57.290 Casie Aviles: Cool.

344 00:32:58.130 00:32:59.910 Miguel de Veyra: We’re very efficient now. No.

345 00:33:00.790 00:33:01.877 Uttam Kumaran: It’s getting better.

346 00:33:02.240 00:33:03.620 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, worry about it.

347 00:33:03.620 00:33:06.439 Uttam Kumaran: I was a Pm. In my last life. So

348 00:33:06.750 00:33:08.809 Uttam Kumaran: for like 4 years. So it’s.

349 00:33:09.510 00:33:10.080 Miguel de Veyra: I see.

350 00:33:10.080 00:33:11.140 Uttam Kumaran: What I do.

351 00:33:12.330 00:33:23.910 Uttam Kumaran: but I am also now do 10 other things. So it’s I’m glad we have a good team like this is why this is, I think, what I I want to kind of impart on everybody is like the relationship between the project manager

352 00:33:24.230 00:33:27.010 Uttam Kumaran: and the engineer is not like a

353 00:33:27.320 00:33:34.420 Uttam Kumaran: it’s not a vertical one. It’s a horizontal one, meaning like you can tell how all the work that we’ve done to get better tickets.

354 00:33:34.700 00:33:37.850 Uttam Kumaran: that the work I do to put people in the right meetings

355 00:33:38.080 00:33:42.500 Uttam Kumaran: to agree on due dates. It helps everybody execute faster. Right?

356 00:33:42.820 00:33:46.069 Uttam Kumaran: So when you guys go work with in clients.

357 00:33:46.580 00:34:12.149 Uttam Kumaran: Try to emulate the feeling that we have here, where people everyone knows what’s going on, and you should feel empowered to say, Hey, it’s not clear, like what I need to work on, and why and when is it due, or how? How do we agree on what done means right? So this feeling we have on this team. Try and see in your client teams how you can achieve this, because this is probably the best running team we have. I think the Eden team is pretty good, too. I don’t know. I’d have to ask away. But

358 00:34:14.310 00:34:15.130 Uttam Kumaran: like

359 00:34:15.340 00:34:25.269 Uttam Kumaran: this is what I would say. You try to get this feeling in your other teams like try to push your Pm’s. To really work in the similar way. And I’m I’m doing that same thing like with amber and other folks. But

360 00:34:25.639 00:34:28.529 Uttam Kumaran: like this is sort of what a good

361 00:34:28.650 00:34:33.199 Uttam Kumaran: this is like. How a well oiled machine team should feel like, you know.

362 00:34:33.389 00:34:34.049 Miguel de Veyra: Yep.

363 00:34:36.980 00:34:37.570 Uttam Kumaran: Cool.

364 00:34:37.710 00:34:39.400 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, guys, that’s all I had.

365 00:34:39.998 00:34:44.330 Uttam Kumaran: Mustafa. I will. I’ll let you know about chatting with Ryan. I’m sort of

366 00:34:44.909 00:34:49.339 Uttam Kumaran: have meetings for the next few hours, so as soon as soon as I find a pocket I’ll I’ll call you.

367 00:34:49.340 00:34:52.570 Mustafa Raja: Yep, okay, I’ll I’ll be waiting. Thank you.

368 00:34:52.850 00:34:54.619 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, okay, thank you. Guys.

369 00:34:54.620 00:34:55.519 Miguel de Veyra: Then, bye-bye.

370 00:34:55.830 00:34:56.360 Uttam Kumaran: Bye.
