39 00:03:02.880 00:03:11.190 joshuadeveyra: I think they’re. I’m not sure if they’re like data engineers, too, but I think he believes on Rapheon, or something like the Defense Company.

40 00:03:12.320 00:03:13.690 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, okay.

41 00:03:13.990 00:03:14.960 joshuadeveyra: Yeah, yeah.

42 00:03:19.280 00:03:23.999 joshuadeveyra: But they never really grew up in the Philippines, you know. So they were always in the Us.

43 00:03:25.125 00:03:25.560 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

44 00:03:25.560 00:03:28.930 joshuadeveyra: So I I think I met them once or twice in my life.

45 00:03:33.370 00:03:34.817 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, so let’s

46 00:03:36.000 00:03:36.399 Nicolas Sucari: Hey, guys.

47 00:03:36.400 00:03:38.749 Uttam Kumaran: Let’s get started on this. Hey?

48 00:03:41.940 00:03:53.640 Uttam Kumaran: So I think today’s meeting. I just wanted to kick off stuff for vitacoco. So their contract is on their side. But I wanted to loop in Nico, and then kind of talk about the project as a whole.

49 00:03:54.020 00:04:05.099 Uttam Kumaran: So to kind of give an overview. And then I have a couple of things I want to go through today. So the overview of the project is that we by the coco asked us if we could help them scrape

50 00:04:05.700 00:04:10.380 Uttam Kumaran: one of the retailers target, which is, I think, target is global. But

51 00:04:10.410 00:04:14.360 Uttam Kumaran: Target is a big retailer here in the Us kind of like Walmart.

52 00:04:15.480 00:04:24.499 Uttam Kumaran: and basically, they want to check the website for a specific product for a specific zip code and see whether it says, Is this available or not?

53 00:04:25.216 00:04:52.003 Uttam Kumaran: You know, we’ve been testing out a couple of new tools, and we’ve been using this tool browser base. And it seems like it was a Comp. We could totally do it. And so via coco, they’re good for it. We basically have, like, you know, around 10 HA week or so. Of budget. But it looks like we’re making really good progress. Anyways, I think the biggest thing will be. Once we show the initial thing. Working is like scaling that up and then getting the Csv and things. But in the meantime,

54 00:04:52.380 00:04:59.090 Uttam Kumaran: 2 things, one, Nico, can we today? Can we create or we can even try this? Now, can we create a new client template

55 00:04:59.250 00:05:00.710 Uttam Kumaran: for vitacoco?

56 00:05:02.310 00:05:04.350 Nicolas Sucari: Yep, gonna create it right now.

57 00:05:06.255 00:05:08.009 Nicolas Sucari: Go to notion

58 00:05:09.750 00:05:12.510 Nicolas Sucari: clients, and we can use the template.

59 00:05:22.820 00:05:25.820 Nicolas Sucari: There we go. Are you seeing it? Or do you want me to share.

60 00:05:26.070 00:05:28.000 Uttam Kumaran: Yes, I see it now.

61 00:05:31.470 00:05:32.940 Uttam Kumaran: Cool. This is perfect.

62 00:05:35.370 00:05:36.800 Uttam Kumaran: So.

63 00:05:38.280 00:05:40.070 Uttam Kumaran: Miguel, you see this too.

64 00:05:41.110 00:05:41.590 joshuadeveyra: Oh, wait!

65 00:05:41.830 00:05:47.240 Nicolas Sucari: Me. Maybe I can. I need to share this with Miguel. I don’t know if Miguel has the clients. Page shared.

66 00:05:48.480 00:05:51.409 Uttam Kumaran: I think you should have everything. But I’ll just send this a notion.

67 00:05:52.140 00:05:57.670 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah, are you in? If you are in the brain forge team, you should be able to see it.

68 00:05:58.980 00:06:02.489 joshuadeveyra: I see tools went for juicy sales.

69 00:06:03.270 00:06:04.165 joshuadeveyra: I’m not sure this

70 00:06:04.390 00:06:07.909 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah. Do. Do you see? Do you see? Project management? Wiki.

71 00:06:08.692 00:06:10.390 joshuadeveyra: Yeah, yeah. There you go. Yep. Yep.

72 00:06:10.390 00:06:13.090 Nicolas Sucari: If you go there into clients you will see.

73 00:06:13.090 00:06:13.810 joshuadeveyra: Okay.

74 00:06:14.290 00:06:15.730 joshuadeveyra: Okay, yeah, yeah. I’m here. Now.

75 00:06:17.900 00:06:18.600 joshuadeveyra: let me see.

76 00:06:18.600 00:06:19.730 Nicolas Sucari: See?

77 00:06:21.680 00:06:23.420 Nicolas Sucari: Okay.

78 00:06:24.510 00:06:29.030 Nicolas Sucari: yeah, this is just a template. We need to start, yeah, cleaning the tools and everything.

79 00:06:32.070 00:06:37.690 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, great. So this is so, Miguel, basically, what we’re doing for every client is we have like a home page.

80 00:06:39.570 00:06:44.740 Uttam Kumaran: so that we put all of our roadmap and like communication and stuff in here.

81 00:06:46.170 00:06:48.190 Uttam Kumaran: so this is our latest version of that.

82 00:06:48.220 00:06:55.240 Uttam Kumaran: I think this one is going to be Mega, actually a lot simpler than like the data ones, I think. Frankly.

83 00:06:56.450 00:07:00.570 Uttam Kumaran: I’m Nico. I’ll loop you in on emails. But I actually don’t know how much

84 00:07:00.750 00:07:04.239 Uttam Kumaran: cons there’s gonna be, because I think for the most part.

85 00:07:04.790 00:07:09.259 Uttam Kumaran: I really just want it’ll just probably be between Miguel and

86 00:07:09.480 00:07:10.660 Uttam Kumaran: their side.

87 00:07:10.670 00:07:14.359 Uttam Kumaran: But we’ll see but again we’ll we’ll run this like we usually do.

88 00:07:14.831 00:07:19.050 Uttam Kumaran: I think that maybe today we can talk about like

89 00:07:20.390 00:07:26.159 Uttam Kumaran: roadmap, and then also get some of those diagrams and things linked into here. Miguel.

90 00:07:27.880 00:07:32.919 Uttam Kumaran: so do you. Wanna is that you have that mirror board is everything in that one mirror board.

91 00:07:33.700 00:07:38.420 joshuadeveyra: Yeah, yeah, it’s in, actually, yeah, let me change this to vitacoco. Why is it scraping, please?

92 00:07:39.110 00:07:40.570 joshuadeveyra: Right? That coco?

93 00:07:41.110 00:07:42.169 joshuadeveyra: Okay, yeah.

94 00:07:42.470 00:07:44.510 joshuadeveyra: I think you can access it here. I don’t.

95 00:07:45.290 00:07:47.539 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I’m just gonna

96 00:07:48.140 00:07:49.820 Uttam Kumaran: put this in here.

97 00:08:48.180 00:08:53.170 Uttam Kumaran: Nico, does your, does your email, Nico Sukari work, or you have both.

98 00:08:54.580 00:08:55.390 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah.

99 00:08:55.390 00:08:55.740 Uttam Kumaran: Adjust.

100 00:08:55.740 00:08:56.419 Nicolas Sucari: You need a security.

101 00:08:56.420 00:08:57.199 Uttam Kumaran: Like? Do you have the alias.

102 00:08:57.563 00:08:58.290 Nicolas Sucari: Gmail, one.

103 00:08:58.860 00:08:59.640 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.

104 00:09:00.810 00:09:01.470 Uttam Kumaran: like, if I.

105 00:09:01.470 00:09:02.650 Nicolas Sucari: And once you are also.

106 00:09:03.620 00:09:07.600 Uttam Kumaran: No, no, just in general, like, if I invite that email, will that go to you too?

107 00:09:09.050 00:09:12.200 Nicolas Sucari: It will go to my gmail, not to my brain forge account.

108 00:09:12.200 00:09:14.840 Uttam Kumaran: No, no! But if I say Nico instead of Nicholas.

109 00:09:15.580 00:09:16.410 Nicolas Sucari: Oh, yeah. Yeah.

110 00:09:16.960 00:09:18.520 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, okay, that’s what I need.

116 00:09:49.580 00:09:51.149 Nicolas Sucari: No, I didn’t receive it.

117 00:09:52.683 00:09:57.160 Nicolas Sucari: Maybe you need to add Nicholas dot Superia Brainforge to receive it.

118 00:09:57.160 00:09:57.540 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

119 00:09:57.540 00:09:58.529 Nicolas Sucari: I don’t know why.

120 00:09:58.700 00:10:01.450 Nicolas Sucari: because I had mirror account before.

121 00:10:14.060 00:10:15.749 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, you should see. Now.

122 00:10:21.970 00:10:23.730 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah, there, perfect.

123 00:10:25.590 00:10:27.337 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, cool. So

124 00:10:28.870 00:10:31.449 Uttam Kumaran: maybe, Miguel, do you want to walk through

125 00:10:31.830 00:10:36.649 Uttam Kumaran: the overall architecture? And then in today’s meeting, I want to break this into a roadmap

126 00:10:36.960 00:10:40.499 Uttam Kumaran: again. This is mainly for us to be able to share with them.

127 00:10:40.660 00:10:42.330 Uttam Kumaran: but that way

128 00:10:42.360 00:10:45.499 Uttam Kumaran: I can kind of share with them. What like the plan is

129 00:10:45.570 00:10:48.085 Uttam Kumaran: and the technologies we’re gonna use. And then

130 00:10:49.230 00:10:51.910 Uttam Kumaran: that’s probably what most of what I want to cover today.

131 00:10:56.835 00:10:57.630 Uttam Kumaran: You’re on mute.

132 00:11:00.349 00:11:01.849 joshuadeveyra: Should I share screen, or.

133 00:11:02.270 00:11:03.020 Uttam Kumaran: Oh!

134 00:11:03.020 00:11:03.570 joshuadeveyra: In here. Yeah.

135 00:11:03.570 00:11:04.020 Uttam Kumaran: Can I.

136 00:11:04.020 00:11:04.474 joshuadeveyra: Miro.

137 00:11:06.620 00:11:09.071 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I can follow you and Mira, like, if I click on your

138 00:11:09.260 00:11:09.970 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah, me, too.

139 00:11:10.530 00:11:12.290 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, so yeah, we’re both following you.

140 00:11:12.790 00:11:18.340 joshuadeveyra: Okay, so like, this was the initial version, right? When we were just starting.

141 00:11:19.250 00:11:23.690 joshuadeveyra: So you know, we didn’t know about Browser base first.st So I created like this.

142 00:11:23.740 00:11:27.010 joshuadeveyra: basically, it’s a simple version. I simplified it.

143 00:11:27.190 00:11:33.690 joshuadeveyra: So the 1st one we need, I think we needed to figure out was the selectors for basically here.

144 00:11:34.430 00:11:37.799 joshuadeveyra: So what? That one was a bit wrong because

145 00:11:38.050 00:11:43.939 joshuadeveyra: it it goes, it looks up here. But what we should do instead. So we don’t have cause if we go here right

146 00:11:44.200 00:11:46.109 joshuadeveyra: and then up in north

147 00:11:47.010 00:11:54.410 joshuadeveyra: it goes to this one. So this is wrong. So what should we? What we should have done instead is here. But again, I’m I don’t have access to target in my company.

148 00:11:55.880 00:11:59.430 joshuadeveyra: so it should go here, and then I need the selectors here.

149 00:11:59.790 00:12:00.740 joshuadeveyra: So that’s

150 00:12:00.850 00:12:04.669 joshuadeveyra: technically how it works. Oh, shit! I’m not sharing screen.

151 00:12:04.980 00:12:07.739 Uttam Kumaran: No, no, we no, we see I’m seeing your thing.

152 00:12:08.290 00:12:11.179 joshuadeveyra: Oh, no, I wish I was. I was like on the website.

153 00:12:11.640 00:12:12.790 Nicolas Sucari: Well, we.

154 00:12:15.260 00:12:19.380 joshuadeveyra: I was explaining, oh, let me actually let me just

155 00:12:21.243 00:12:25.569 joshuadeveyra: via the coco. I think it’s this one, right? Yeah, yeah.

156 00:12:27.750 00:12:30.139 joshuadeveyra: Area. Okay, yeah, this one.

157 00:12:32.540 00:12:39.169 joshuadeveyra: So yeah, so right now, the one working in Browser base. It does this, I think. Nico, no.

158 00:12:39.250 00:12:42.890 joshuadeveyra: What time you you saw it right where it all automatically.

159 00:12:42.890 00:12:46.089 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, share share with Nico, like, maybe walk through one process.

160 00:12:47.500 00:12:48.560 joshuadeveyra: I think it’s here.

161 00:12:49.850 00:12:51.240 joshuadeveyra: Wait! Wait! Where is it?

162 00:12:52.860 00:12:53.860 Nicolas Sucari: Browser base.

163 00:12:54.559 00:12:56.620 joshuadeveyra: The browser based on it’s in a different website.

164 00:12:59.780 00:13:02.507 joshuadeveyra: Oh, wait! Can I just send this to you?

165 00:13:03.030 00:13:03.870 joshuadeveyra: So.

166 00:13:03.870 00:13:05.599 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah, send it through. Zoom, if you want.

167 00:13:06.420 00:13:09.789 joshuadeveyra: To slack to Nico, yeah, there you go.

168 00:13:10.110 00:13:17.819 joshuadeveyra: So basically, you know, we can, we can all we can already automate the entire process here, where it clicks. This puts the zip, and then it clicks. Lock up.

169 00:13:17.970 00:13:20.220 joshuadeveyra: But this is wrong, because it should have been here.

170 00:13:20.970 00:13:23.589 joshuadeveyra: Check other stores, and then we’ll, you know.

171 00:13:23.760 00:13:27.380 joshuadeveyra: for example, 1 0 0 1 is New York, I believe, but I I don’t have a.

172 00:13:27.380 00:13:28.380 Uttam Kumaran: I see. Okay.

173 00:13:29.000 00:13:34.870 joshuadeveyra: Yeah, it should have been here, not there, but it should be pretty easy, because, if you like, look here, it’s the same.

174 00:13:35.110 00:13:37.330 joshuadeveyra: just a different. You know, selector.

175 00:13:37.840 00:13:43.879 joshuadeveyra: So once we select this and this, it should be, okay. So yeah, I’ll I’m that’s what I’m working on right now.

176 00:13:45.064 00:13:58.699 joshuadeveyra: So yeah, I think that’s pretty much it. And then the checking is, I think we’ll we can stick with what they have already with. If there’s add to cart, then obviously it’s in stock, but if there’s no add to cart, then it’s not in stock, right?

177 00:13:59.240 00:14:03.779 joshuadeveyra: So I divided into separate, you know, separate parts. The 1st is zip code.

178 00:14:04.230 00:14:07.480 joshuadeveyra: and then the once is the status analysis, of course.

179 00:14:08.810 00:14:12.979 joshuadeveyra: So yeah, the only thing I’m not sure is how to scale this, to be honest.

180 00:14:15.090 00:14:18.450 Nicolas Sucari: Like 2 different products or different pages.

181 00:14:19.670 00:14:24.770 joshuadeveyra: No, because, like, yeah, that, too. But like the main issue is like this one.

182 00:14:24.800 00:14:28.390 joshuadeveyra: this one product like scraping. This took 44 seconds

183 00:14:28.420 00:14:30.100 joshuadeveyra: in Browser base. Yeah.

184 00:14:30.860 00:14:31.910 joshuadeveyra: where is it?

185 00:14:32.340 00:14:37.860 Uttam Kumaran: No. So what we’ll do is we’re gonna we’ll run this in when we’ll we’ll run this in Windmill, and we’ll we’ll run this.

186 00:14:37.970 00:14:42.319 Uttam Kumaran: What we’ll do is we’ll have this process for every single zip.

187 00:14:43.090 00:14:48.620 Uttam Kumaran: and then we’ll run. The Browser base is just the code. Actually. So we’ll import Browser Base.

188 00:14:48.620 00:14:49.010 joshuadeveyra: Yeah.

189 00:14:49.010 00:14:50.220 Uttam Kumaran: The Api

190 00:14:50.360 00:14:56.239 Uttam Kumaran: and then get the output. But I’ll show you how we can run this in windmill, or we could try to run this in replit?

191 00:14:58.780 00:14:59.590 Uttam Kumaran: yeah.

192 00:15:02.010 00:15:03.359 joshuadeveyra: So we’re gonna have like.

193 00:15:03.450 00:15:07.060 joshuadeveyra: 1,800, right? I know we’re gonna start in New York. Only right.

194 00:15:07.760 00:15:15.249 Uttam Kumaran: Well, yeah, we’re gonna let’s just we’ll start with like a couple make sure that we can see that it outputs it takes in a zip

195 00:15:15.270 00:15:20.190 Uttam Kumaran: outputs whether it’s in sock or not, and then we can save that somewhere, and then we can scale it up.

196 00:15:20.670 00:15:23.659 Uttam Kumaran: What we’ll do is like we’ll we’ll run an initial test.

197 00:15:23.690 00:15:27.199 Uttam Kumaran: And then we can explore with other technologies. Basically,

198 00:15:27.590 00:15:28.210 joshuadeveyra: Yeah.

199 00:15:28.790 00:15:29.360 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.

200 00:15:29.890 00:15:31.659 joshuadeveyra: Yeah, so this one should like.

201 00:15:31.770 00:15:32.676 joshuadeveyra: you know,

202 00:15:33.530 00:15:38.519 joshuadeveyra: basically get all the data like this flow. So selectors, you input the sip you load.

203 00:15:38.600 00:15:44.449 joshuadeveyra: And then status analysis. Right? We want to get. This is so far the data I want to get.

204 00:15:45.310 00:15:50.539 joshuadeveyra: And then you just put it in Csv format. So yeah, that’s basically it.

205 00:15:52.440 00:15:55.489 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. So I’m gonna add some steps to the roadmap

206 00:15:55.560 00:15:57.070 Uttam Kumaran: in notion.

207 00:15:57.430 00:16:01.101 Uttam Kumaran: So the 1st thing we’re gonna do is

208 00:16:03.060 00:16:05.710 Uttam Kumaran: 1st thing is just like confirm

209 00:16:08.970 00:16:10.599 Uttam Kumaran: proof of concept

210 00:16:11.660 00:16:13.659 Uttam Kumaran: in browser, base

211 00:16:13.890 00:16:15.050 Uttam Kumaran: playground.

212 00:16:16.650 00:16:18.500 Uttam Kumaran: Second, one is going to be

213 00:16:18.750 00:16:21.990 Uttam Kumaran: initialize browser, base

214 00:16:23.020 00:16:26.470 Uttam Kumaran: concept and wind, you know.

215 00:16:26.580 00:16:27.800 Uttam Kumaran: or wrap lip.

216 00:16:28.310 00:16:30.860 Uttam Kumaran: The 3rd thing is going to be

217 00:16:31.060 00:16:32.170 Uttam Kumaran: test.

218 00:16:32.710 00:16:35.350 Uttam Kumaran: that’s gonna be confirm output

219 00:16:35.490 00:16:37.210 Uttam Kumaran: to Csv

220 00:16:37.450 00:16:38.950 Uttam Kumaran: or Google sheets.

221 00:16:41.570 00:16:44.450 Uttam Kumaran: the next thing is going to be

222 00:16:50.280 00:16:54.470 Uttam Kumaran: test with NY. Area stores.

223 00:17:17.970 00:17:23.470 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, so are you in notion? I just added, like 5 steps. Can we just confirm that those are all

224 00:17:25.940 00:17:28.219 Uttam Kumaran: the the necessary ones.

225 00:17:32.854 00:17:37.840 joshuadeveyra: Testing your carrier stores, and most of them goes

226 00:17:38.170 00:17:41.799 joshuadeveyra: tested all stores, schedule data for all stores.

227 00:17:41.930 00:17:43.180 joshuadeveyra: Yeah, I am.

228 00:17:45.350 00:17:46.070 joshuadeveyra: Yep.

229 00:17:48.520 00:17:49.140 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.

230 00:17:49.700 00:17:52.390 Uttam Kumaran: And then one thing I’m gonna add, here.

231 00:18:34.440 00:18:38.029 joshuadeveyra: We have to get the startup plan now in Browser Base.

232 00:18:38.600 00:18:39.280 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.

233 00:18:40.480 00:18:41.050 joshuadeveyra: Yeah.

234 00:18:41.512 00:18:44.540 Uttam Kumaran: Do we? How many more tests do we have? You have 6.

235 00:18:45.690 00:18:53.280 joshuadeveyra: Text, I believe, yeah, no, that’s not. Yeah. That’s also part of the issue. But I think it’s cause right now. We only have one concurrent browser.

236 00:18:53.830 00:18:58.090 joshuadeveyra: the 99 one has, I think, 50, or something, but 39 has 3.

237 00:19:01.400 00:19:02.090 Nicolas Sucari: I don’t have.

238 00:19:02.090 00:19:02.830 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, I see!

239 00:19:02.830 00:19:03.859 Nicolas Sucari: Base. I think

240 00:19:05.030 00:19:05.850 Nicolas Sucari: maybe.

241 00:19:05.850 00:19:07.720 joshuadeveyra: I only I have autumn’s account.

242 00:19:09.351 00:19:10.859 Uttam Kumaran: I think I’m the only one.

243 00:19:14.460 00:19:16.050 Nicolas Sucari: But it’s not in

244 00:19:17.740 00:19:18.640 Nicolas Sucari: yeah

245 00:19:18.800 00:19:22.329 Nicolas Sucari: to know the one password, so I can’t access. I can’t see what you sent.

246 00:19:23.410 00:19:23.970 Nicolas Sucari: Wait.

247 00:19:23.970 00:19:24.710 Uttam Kumaran: Oh.

248 00:19:25.490 00:19:26.419 Uttam Kumaran: let me see.

249 00:19:26.830 00:19:28.520 Uttam Kumaran: I think there’s a vault, but.

250 00:19:30.740 00:19:32.450 Nicolas Sucari: Maybe I’m not in it yet.

251 00:19:34.040 00:19:34.790 Nicolas Sucari: Oh, yeah.

252 00:19:34.790 00:19:38.780 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, there’s a brain forge. AI automation. Okay, let me. Let me add you to this.

253 00:19:39.080 00:19:40.679 Uttam Kumaran: There’s only one thing in here.

254 00:19:41.610 00:19:42.170 Nicolas Sucari: Okay.

255 00:19:49.700 00:19:55.280 Nicolas Sucari: so what’s what was like the main ask from Vitacoco, or what were we trying to

256 00:19:55.690 00:19:56.590 Nicolas Sucari: like? What’s our.

257 00:19:56.590 00:19:57.460 Uttam Kumaran: Basically there.

258 00:19:57.460 00:19:57.980 Nicolas Sucari: And.

259 00:19:57.980 00:19:58.405 Uttam Kumaran: A

260 00:19:59.420 00:20:00.490 Uttam Kumaran: They’re

261 00:20:00.540 00:20:02.590 Uttam Kumaran: let me just add you

262 00:20:03.190 00:20:07.900 Uttam Kumaran: right now. They can’t tell whether this their product is in stock at these stores.

263 00:20:07.900 00:20:08.530 Nicolas Sucari: Okay.

264 00:20:08.530 00:20:11.480 Uttam Kumaran: Without manually checking the stories and telling them

265 00:20:12.860 00:20:14.230 Uttam Kumaran: fast enough.

266 00:20:14.320 00:20:20.890 Uttam Kumaran: So if they run out of stock, then they can’t sell it right. So right now. They have someone who’s going through randomly and just checking.

267 00:20:21.720 00:20:25.520 Uttam Kumaran: But there, there’s about 2,000 targets in the Us.

268 00:20:26.030 00:20:27.660 Uttam Kumaran: And to go in and check

269 00:20:27.750 00:20:30.379 Uttam Kumaran: type in the Zip code for every single zip check.

270 00:20:31.180 00:20:31.860 Uttam Kumaran: I I don’t know.

271 00:20:31.860 00:20:32.729 Nicolas Sucari: And always crazy.

272 00:20:32.730 00:20:33.670 Uttam Kumaran: It takes like hours.

273 00:20:33.670 00:20:34.120 Nicolas Sucari: So.

274 00:20:34.437 00:20:37.290 Uttam Kumaran: So that’s basically the process they want us to

275 00:20:37.330 00:20:38.479 Uttam Kumaran: to try to do.

276 00:20:50.470 00:20:54.089 Nicolas Sucari: I mean, they don’t use any platform to

277 00:20:54.920 00:20:59.269 Nicolas Sucari: manage all of their stock in all the platforms, right or in all the shops.

278 00:21:00.500 00:21:14.390 Uttam Kumaran: Well, there’s like there’s 1 thing about sending them, but Target won’t like they won’t commonly tell you this is so. This is a thing about these big retailers here like I don’t know what’s like a what’s like the big grocery store chain in Argentina.

279 00:21:16.447 00:21:19.709 Nicolas Sucari: I don’t know. We have big supermarkets like

280 00:21:20.477 00:21:21.939 Nicolas Sucari: I don’t know

281 00:21:22.010 00:21:23.890 Nicolas Sucari: like that. Those ones.

282 00:21:24.480 00:21:36.019 Uttam Kumaran: Okay? So like, take that, for example. Yeah, the they are the marketplace. Right? So they own the store shelves. So people are always begging to get into the store.

283 00:21:36.410 00:21:39.869 Uttam Kumaran: But their data and their software is horrible.

284 00:21:39.930 00:21:42.959 Uttam Kumaran: Like, yeah, the nice thing about selling online is

285 00:21:42.990 00:21:53.681 Uttam Kumaran: the customer has to put in their email. You know everything about that. The trouble with selling in retail is that you have no idea who bought the product when they bought it. Why they bought it.

286 00:21:54.230 00:21:58.060 Uttam Kumaran: But guess what? Like a lot of people still shop in person

287 00:21:58.140 00:22:11.609 Uttam Kumaran: for for goods. So there’s this dynamic. The second problem is those stores you will send them. They’ll say, Hey, okay, we want to place an order for 1,000 juices, but you have no idea about how fast those sell

288 00:22:11.790 00:22:15.449 Uttam Kumaran: you. Only at some point they’ll come back and tell you that they’ve run out.

289 00:22:15.860 00:22:24.610 Uttam Kumaran: The the thing is that for consumers you could. Now that target itself is telling on the website, hey, this thing is in stock versus, not in stock.

290 00:22:24.900 00:22:27.479 Uttam Kumaran: And so instead of waiting for target to say.

291 00:22:27.540 00:22:30.490 Uttam Kumaran: we run out. They can just go to this website

292 00:22:30.900 00:22:33.829 Uttam Kumaran: as from the consumer perspective and see whether it’s there.

293 00:22:34.720 00:22:38.026 Uttam Kumaran: Okay? And that’s the that’s basically the overall

294 00:22:39.220 00:22:40.139 Uttam Kumaran: in our pitch.

295 00:22:40.140 00:22:40.930 Nicolas Sucari: So they.

296 00:22:41.200 00:22:50.850 Nicolas Sucari: okay, okay, so what we are doing is just scraping this website. See if we have stock or not, and sending a report, saying, Hey, you’re running out of stock on these products right?

297 00:22:50.910 00:22:52.320 Nicolas Sucari: Like, that’s horrible.

298 00:22:52.620 00:22:58.759 Nicolas Sucari: Kind of be the intermediate player there between Target and Beta Coco. And

299 00:22:58.830 00:23:02.069 Nicolas Sucari: yeah, just informing when they are going to run out of stock.

300 00:23:03.000 00:23:05.200 Nicolas Sucari: So yeah, how frequently are we.

301 00:23:05.200 00:23:07.750 Uttam Kumaran: Have you heard of? Have you seen the Vitacoco product before?

302 00:23:08.940 00:23:13.270 Nicolas Sucari: I haven’t I? I think I’ve seen it. I I haven’t tasted it yet. But yeah.

303 00:23:13.270 00:23:19.219 Uttam Kumaran: So vita cocoa is probably the number 2 coconut water drink, maybe number one in the Us.

304 00:23:19.220 00:23:20.579 Nicolas Sucari: I think I tried it.

305 00:23:20.580 00:23:21.880 Uttam Kumaran: You go to here.

306 00:23:22.410 00:23:24.260 Uttam Kumaran: You see Vitaco everywhere.

307 00:23:24.440 00:23:28.559 Uttam Kumaran: And so the guy who we’re doing this through he’s actually my friend. He lives here in Austin.

308 00:23:28.560 00:23:28.980 Nicolas Sucari: Nice.

309 00:23:28.980 00:23:31.979 Uttam Kumaran: He’s their he’s 1 of their Vp in their it department.

310 00:23:32.286 00:23:42.430 Uttam Kumaran: and so their Cfo is trying to do this project where they look at their stuff is in stock. But they want to do this just for one product. And then they want to expand to multiple products.

311 00:23:42.790 00:23:46.551 Uttam Kumaran: to be able to know when their product is in stock or not.

312 00:23:47.610 00:23:48.740 Uttam Kumaran: you know. So

313 00:23:49.050 00:23:49.810 Uttam Kumaran: yeah.

314 00:23:50.150 00:24:00.200 Nicolas Sucari: It’s it’s incredible like, how how like each of these platforms target? I don’t know. 7, 11, or any other retailer how they like. They don’t inform

315 00:24:00.470 00:24:03.660 Nicolas Sucari: the owner like the the different brands when they are gonna run.

316 00:24:03.660 00:24:06.079 Uttam Kumaran: No, it’s horrible. Yeah, it’s horrible. Yeah.

317 00:24:08.480 00:24:12.709 Uttam Kumaran: but that’s the problem is that they don’t have any reason to right, because

318 00:24:12.880 00:24:16.140 Uttam Kumaran: this is the other thing is like the if they if you.

319 00:24:16.170 00:24:21.630 Uttam Kumaran: if they give you the data on the customer, then you’ll say, Okay, come, actually buy directly from me

320 00:24:21.650 00:24:24.899 Uttam Kumaran: because the store is buying it from you at a wholesale price.

321 00:24:25.300 00:24:29.030 Uttam Kumaran: Right? They’re not buying it from you at the price the customer pays.

322 00:24:29.260 00:24:33.710 Uttam Kumaran: So my perspective was like I would sell it to you, and then I will try to get own that customer.

323 00:24:33.810 00:24:38.159 Uttam Kumaran: So the whole concept in retail is a concept of owning the customer

324 00:24:38.605 00:24:49.679 Uttam Kumaran: and so they, the retailers themselves. Now before before there’s no online purchase. The only place you can go to get the product is in the store. Now, they’re competing with the online marketplaces.

325 00:24:49.980 00:24:51.370 Uttam Kumaran: So they’re very

326 00:24:51.730 00:24:53.490 Uttam Kumaran: protective of the data.

327 00:24:53.560 00:24:55.209 Uttam Kumaran: And they’re very much like

328 00:24:55.250 00:24:58.600 Uttam Kumaran: not that interested in sharing the information with you.

329 00:24:58.620 00:25:00.800 Uttam Kumaran: They will tell you how much you sold.

330 00:25:01.500 00:25:03.959 Uttam Kumaran: and probably like that’s it

331 00:25:04.380 00:25:04.920 Uttam Kumaran: right.

332 00:25:04.920 00:25:05.620 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah.

333 00:25:06.239 00:25:14.329 Uttam Kumaran: And so for us, we’re in the data game. We know that like you can’t do anything with that information. You can’t retarget. You can’t send marketing, you can’t measure

334 00:25:14.911 00:25:17.319 Uttam Kumaran: but yeah, think about vitacoco.

335 00:25:17.350 00:25:20.920 Uttam Kumaran: How many people are? Gonna go buy, if not a cocoa from the website versus

336 00:25:20.980 00:25:22.220 Uttam Kumaran: buy it in the store.

337 00:25:22.710 00:25:27.239 Uttam Kumaran: Like, probably 90% of the people, 95% of people buy it in the store.

338 00:25:27.440 00:25:29.920 Uttam Kumaran: So they have this kind of like dynamic, you know.

339 00:25:31.200 00:25:31.970 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.

340 00:25:34.690 00:25:36.774 Uttam Kumaran: okay, cool. So

341 00:25:37.640 00:25:43.369 Uttam Kumaran: I think this notion seems fine. What I’m going to do now is I’m going to message

342 00:25:43.530 00:25:48.370 Uttam Kumaran: my contact and try to see if they we can start a slack, and we can

343 00:25:48.620 00:25:54.289 Uttam Kumaran: like I could list the people and kind of get them into here, and I also want them to kind of

344 00:25:54.350 00:25:57.562 Uttam Kumaran: take a look at that. We’re organized and everything.

345 00:25:58.020 00:26:02.139 Uttam Kumaran: I think, Miguel, what what should I do? Do you want me to just go ahead and get the

346 00:26:03.840 00:26:05.429 Uttam Kumaran: The browser base

347 00:26:05.580 00:26:06.909 Uttam Kumaran: startup plan.

348 00:26:10.697 00:26:14.390 joshuadeveyra: I think we can start at 39, because we’re still testing.

349 00:26:15.670 00:26:16.620 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, let me just get that.

350 00:26:16.620 00:26:19.849 joshuadeveyra: Yeah, yeah, I think the 39 should be fine. For now.

351 00:26:22.090 00:26:26.819 joshuadeveyra: by the way, Utam, I don’t really have that much experience in both windmill and replit.

352 00:26:27.700 00:26:28.809 Uttam Kumaran: You’ll be fine, sir.

353 00:26:29.210 00:26:32.001 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, you’ll be fine. It’s not that bad.
