4 00:00:37.110 ⇒ 00:00:43.451 Uttam Kumaran: That went well, yeah. So I think I mean, I think they’ll probably close. The one thing I wanna make sure is
5 00:00:44.030 ⇒ 00:00:46.840 Uttam Kumaran: that the reports we send them on
6 00:00:47.440 ⇒ 00:00:50.859 Uttam Kumaran: the ones that they asked for are work really well.
7 00:00:52.510 ⇒ 00:00:57.199 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, maybe we could ask them with them if they could send the pitch decks alongside it.
8 00:01:02.690 ⇒ 00:01:03.830 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, okay.
9 00:01:03.830 ⇒ 00:01:04.510 Miguel de Veyra: Right?
10 00:01:04.830 ⇒ 00:01:06.890 Miguel de Veyra: Because that fixes everything.
11 00:01:10.010 ⇒ 00:01:10.722 Uttam Kumaran: So let me
12 00:01:10.960 ⇒ 00:01:14.739 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, I think they’ll probably close, and then we can sell this to other Vcs. Now.
13 00:01:15.290 ⇒ 00:01:15.960 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
14 00:01:19.020 ⇒ 00:01:20.470 Miguel de Veyra: Easy, easy.
15 00:01:37.070 ⇒ 00:01:41.410 Uttam Kumaran: And then what do you think about the Portuguese like Brazil stuff? He said.
16 00:01:42.243 ⇒ 00:01:45.930 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, that’s true. We actually, we wanted to add that to the prompts
17 00:01:46.430 ⇒ 00:01:53.370 Miguel de Veyra: we were. I was translating it with Casey. We’re working on it. But I was like, I think, for initial version. This is, gonna be okay.
18 00:01:54.430 ⇒ 00:01:55.223 Uttam Kumaran: Can you
19 00:01:56.000 ⇒ 00:02:02.950 Miguel de Veyra: My only worry there is. Do we really want to give them full access to everything, and they just copy it, and then they won’t need us.
20 00:02:03.170 ⇒ 00:02:04.379 Miguel de Veyra: Or is that fine.
21 00:02:05.010 ⇒ 00:02:07.150 Uttam Kumaran: No, they won’t, they won’t they won’t.
22 00:02:08.389 ⇒ 00:02:13.280 Uttam Kumaran: I see dude like I don’t have fear, because this stuff is complicated. Bro. There are only 4 people.
23 00:02:13.616 ⇒ 00:02:18.829 Uttam Kumaran: I want them to help us make the quality better, so that they will use it more because we’re billing them on usage.
24 00:02:19.773 ⇒ 00:02:20.580 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah. Okay.
25 00:02:20.580 ⇒ 00:02:21.700 Uttam Kumaran: And also
26 00:02:41.494 ⇒ 00:02:43.230 Uttam Kumaran: is there any chance
27 00:02:43.360 ⇒ 00:02:48.090 Uttam Kumaran: like, how hard would it be for Casey to build like a little architecture diagram on this somewhere?
28 00:02:48.400 ⇒ 00:02:49.740 Miguel de Veyra: Hasn’t he built one.
29 00:02:50.090 ⇒ 00:02:51.470 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, really! Can you check?
30 00:02:52.190 ⇒ 00:02:54.129 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, wait! Let me double check.
31 00:02:58.680 ⇒ 00:03:04.589 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, excuse me! Sorry it’s over here. I’ll send it to you
32 00:03:05.600 ⇒ 00:03:08.580 Miguel de Veyra: on rain, for let me just DM it to you.
33 00:03:13.420 ⇒ 00:03:16.820 Miguel de Veyra: I mean, it’s not really in Miro yet. But there’s a you know.
34 00:03:23.620 ⇒ 00:03:27.250 Miguel de Veyra: Okay, he’s good at documentation. He graduated on a research school.
35 00:03:29.210 ⇒ 00:03:30.180 Uttam Kumaran: That’s good.
36 00:03:59.358 ⇒ 00:04:02.580 Miguel de Veyra: I also hopped on a call earlier with Ryan.
37 00:04:04.050 ⇒ 00:04:05.150 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, yeah. How’d it go?
38 00:04:05.150 ⇒ 00:04:12.370 Miguel de Veyra: Process. Yeah, it went well. I’ll build probably an agent with him. I told him
39 00:04:12.590 ⇒ 00:04:15.710 Miguel de Veyra: I could probably send it to him by end of week, because I really want to get
40 00:04:16.332 ⇒ 00:04:23.100 Miguel de Veyra: Kroger, or you know, Walmart Demo working. But yeah, basically, I think that meeting we could
41 00:04:25.220 ⇒ 00:04:29.520 Miguel de Veyra: like we could learn from, because basically, he was explaining some stuff to me.
42 00:04:29.830 ⇒ 00:04:39.609 Miguel de Veyra: But then it wasn’t clear, like what the inputs were was what the data you want was, and then I had to walk through, you know, with him one by one, but we were able to get it there.
43 00:04:52.620 ⇒ 00:04:55.519 Miguel de Veyra: but I think this client will probably close to be honest.
44 00:04:56.410 ⇒ 00:04:58.400 Uttam Kumaran: Dude. You’re too confident.
45 00:05:00.320 ⇒ 00:05:01.816 Uttam Kumaran: You’re way too confident.
46 00:05:02.190 ⇒ 00:05:03.630 Miguel de Veyra: Seems impressed, though no.
47 00:05:04.690 ⇒ 00:05:09.139 Uttam Kumaran: I know, man, but nothing you can’t get. You can’t get excited until the money hits.
48 00:05:09.320 ⇒ 00:05:10.640 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, true. True.
49 00:05:10.640 ⇒ 00:05:12.299 Uttam Kumaran: That’s what I’m saying for me.
50 00:05:13.120 ⇒ 00:05:16.379 Uttam Kumaran: you know I don’t. I don’t have any emotion until the money hits.
51 00:05:17.680 ⇒ 00:05:19.650 Miguel de Veyra: Until they sign something. No.
52 00:05:19.650 ⇒ 00:05:22.729 Uttam Kumaran: Dude. Nothing in this dude. No, it’s not even that, you know.
53 00:05:22.750 ⇒ 00:05:26.059 Uttam Kumaran: We’re fucking vitaco. It took them 2 months to pay us. So like.
54 00:05:26.460 ⇒ 00:05:32.060 Uttam Kumaran: nothing happened. Yeah, cause they were like, there’s some delays on their end. And I was like, Okay.
55 00:05:36.650 ⇒ 00:05:37.930 Uttam Kumaran: you know what I mean.
56 00:05:39.310 ⇒ 00:05:45.659 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah. Oh, who’s the closest client we can.
57 00:05:45.720 ⇒ 00:05:48.910 Miguel de Veyra: The closing, except for this one sales.
58 00:05:48.910 ⇒ 00:05:53.570 Uttam Kumaran: ABC. And ABC. Hpi. So we have a couple of other ones this week.
59 00:05:53.880 ⇒ 00:05:57.669 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, yeah. Yeah. How’s ABC? By the way, you met with Scott? Right?

68 00:06:29.240 ⇒ 00:06:39.619 Miguel de Veyra: So I think so. Given that I’ll just work on. There’s probably something I can do to make Walmart work so we can, you know, create something for grow, for roar.
69 00:06:41.290 ⇒ 00:06:42.659 Miguel de Veyra: I’m dusting it out.
70 00:07:01.980 ⇒ 00:07:07.579 Miguel de Veyra: What about, I remember, I think. Was it you or Nico who mentioned it.
71 00:07:07.650 ⇒ 00:07:11.790 Miguel de Veyra: that I think one of our current clients from the data side is actually interested
72 00:07:12.500 ⇒ 00:07:15.989 Miguel de Veyra: regarding our AI services. Have we followed up with them.
73 00:07:20.210 ⇒ 00:07:23.459 Uttam Kumaran: I have not followed up with them yet. Because.
74 00:07:24.040 ⇒ 00:07:30.650 Uttam Kumaran: yeah, we’re just like dude in terms of like brainpower. I can only focus on the ones that we have net new right now
75 00:07:31.820 ⇒ 00:07:32.820 Uttam Kumaran: bit off.
76 00:07:35.270 ⇒ 00:07:40.319 Miguel de Veyra: Well, I think, while Robert’s here, we can probably, you know, handle it because I.
77 00:07:40.320 ⇒ 00:07:43.150 Uttam Kumaran: We just need a lot more money coming in before I can
78 00:07:43.450 ⇒ 00:07:47.969 Uttam Kumaran: cause. That’s a different process of like account management and and retention.
79 00:07:48.260 ⇒ 00:07:51.400 Uttam Kumaran: So right now, we’re purely focused on getting new sales in.
80 00:07:52.669 ⇒ 00:07:53.150 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah.
81 00:07:55.700 ⇒ 00:07:59.769 Uttam Kumaran: For the existing clients. We just need to continue to do what they need.

85 00:08:11.244 ⇒ 00:08:14.190 Uttam Kumaran: There’s some people in process, but not about to close.
86 00:08:14.480 ⇒ 00:08:16.619 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, okay, so same as in the
87 00:08:38.749 ⇒ 00:08:42.069 Miguel de Veyra: hopefully we close Hba. It’s been over a month.
88 00:08:44.110 ⇒ 00:08:45.580 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I have to.
89 00:08:46.940 ⇒ 00:08:49.259 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna ask Scott what he what he thinks.
90 00:08:52.420 ⇒ 00:08:57.000 Miguel de Veyra: But that’s also because it’s probably December. So everyone’s just everything’s just slowing down.
91 00:09:00.040 ⇒ 00:09:03.000 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, nice. Okay. He has all the documentation here, too. Okay, great.
92 00:09:23.630 ⇒ 00:09:26.230 Miguel de Veyra: So what’s our next steps for?
93 00:09:27.390 ⇒ 00:09:32.819 Miguel de Veyra: What’s their name? Again? It’s just to get the new companies. And then the what do you call it?
94 00:09:33.410 ⇒ 00:09:34.850 Miguel de Veyra: The pitch decks.
95 00:09:35.440 ⇒ 00:09:36.000 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, yeah.
96 00:09:36.000 ⇒ 00:09:36.320 Miguel de Veyra: It’s a great.

98 00:09:38.020 ⇒ 00:09:39.500 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, yeah, yeah, that one.
99 00:09:42.940 ⇒ 00:09:46.659 Miguel de Veyra: How much are you planning to charge for the initial setup? Fee.
100 00:09:47.310 ⇒ 00:09:49.129 Uttam Kumaran: No. Did we have to talk about it today?
101 00:09:49.330 ⇒ 00:09:52.519 Uttam Kumaran: That’s why I didn’t know I thought Robert was gonna be here. But we have to decide.
102 00:09:56.660 ⇒ 00:09:59.160 Uttam Kumaran: I mean, I would think it’s probably gonna take 2 weeks for setup.
103 00:10:02.010 ⇒ 00:10:02.919 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah. Yeah.
104 00:10:03.050 ⇒ 00:10:04.450 Miguel de Veyra: Max, 2 weeks.
105 00:10:12.920 ⇒ 00:10:19.700 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, that was definitely, I mean, hold on.
106 00:10:24.770 ⇒ 00:10:29.380 Miguel de Veyra: I’m still gonna be using okay.
107 00:11:45.350 ⇒ 00:11:51.740 Uttam Kumaran: So in terms of what he said, which was like working with their affinity. Crm. Like, how difficult do you think that is.
108 00:11:54.370 ⇒ 00:11:58.109 Miguel de Veyra: Let me check Zapier cause if it’s in Zapier, or make that’s easy.
109 00:11:59.080 ⇒ 00:12:00.460 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, just double check.
110 00:12:26.620 ⇒ 00:12:29.749 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, it should be easy. Great opportunity. It’s here.
111 00:12:30.230 ⇒ 00:12:31.600 Uttam Kumaran: And we’re getting the data.
112 00:12:32.180 ⇒ 00:12:34.070 Miguel de Veyra: Getting data from affinity.
113 00:12:34.450 ⇒ 00:12:35.020 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
114 00:12:38.770 ⇒ 00:12:41.479 Miguel de Veyra: So we need. And now I need to check affinity.
115 00:12:41.580 ⇒ 00:12:43.090 Miguel de Veyra: Alright. Yeah.
116 00:12:46.610 ⇒ 00:12:48.840 Miguel de Veyra: wait. Does affinity support web books?
117 00:12:54.570 ⇒ 00:12:57.860 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, yeah, there’s a there’s affinity web hook. So it should be okay.
118 00:12:59.850 ⇒ 00:13:02.560 Miguel de Veyra: Cause if it’s a lot like, Are you familiar with Ghl?
119 00:13:16.570 ⇒ 00:13:20.289 Miguel de Veyra: If they have some sort of like automations inside affinity.
120 00:13:21.500 ⇒ 00:13:24.680 Miguel de Veyra: Then, you know, it should be pretty similar.
121 00:13:25.110 ⇒ 00:13:27.700 Miguel de Veyra: Both me and Casey have a lot of experience there.
122 00:13:29.270 ⇒ 00:13:30.360 Uttam Kumaran: With affinity.
123 00:13:31.383 ⇒ 00:13:32.249 Miguel de Veyra: With, yeah.
124 00:13:32.250 ⇒ 00:13:35.109 Uttam Kumaran: Can we just check? Can we just check right now? Like, if it’s possible.
125 00:13:35.964 ⇒ 00:13:39.969 Miguel de Veyra: I’m checking. They do have web books. That’s what I checked.
126 00:13:44.000 ⇒ 00:13:47.379 Miguel de Veyra: Wait, let me search ability, workflows.
127 00:13:50.470 ⇒ 00:13:51.490 Uttam Kumaran: You have an Api.
128 00:13:52.590 ⇒ 00:13:53.270 Miguel de Veyra: Yep.
129 00:14:06.080 ⇒ 00:14:08.470 Miguel de Veyra: but I don’t think he mentioned that there did.
130 00:14:08.690 ⇒ 00:14:12.539 Miguel de Veyra: Their database is in affinity. Did he.
131 00:14:13.600 ⇒ 00:14:14.499 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, they did.
132 00:14:15.810 ⇒ 00:14:17.720 Miguel de Veyra: Affinity.
133 00:14:17.960 ⇒ 00:14:19.809 Uttam Kumaran: We can do. That’s what we talk about the whole time.
134 00:14:23.740 ⇒ 00:14:25.830 Miguel de Veyra: But yeah, it should be there. Yeah.
135 00:14:29.780 ⇒ 00:14:30.930 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I found it. Okay.
136 00:14:37.170 ⇒ 00:14:43.750 Uttam Kumaran: okay, cool. So like, you probably like, we probably need like 2 weeks to get the setup right. Right.
137 00:14:43.750 ⇒ 00:14:44.410 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah.
138 00:14:44.570 ⇒ 00:14:52.090 Uttam Kumaran: I also wanna I wanna move relevance to their own to their own system.
139 00:14:55.760 ⇒ 00:14:58.300 Miguel de Veyra: You mean, create a separate relevance project for them.
140 00:14:58.460 ⇒ 00:14:59.150 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
141 00:14:59.510 ⇒ 00:15:01.000 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, yeah, yeah, we could do that.
142 00:15:01.380 ⇒ 00:15:03.250 Miguel de Veyra: I was gonna suggest that. Actually.
143 00:15:09.360 ⇒ 00:15:15.660 Miguel de Veyra: I’m not sure if it’s because I’m not an admin on relevance. But I was actually trying to create that a few days ago.
144 00:15:15.750 ⇒ 00:15:17.279 Miguel de Veyra: Maybe I’m just open.
145 00:15:19.710 ⇒ 00:15:25.180 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, there is. If you click rainforge U.S.A. East.
146 00:15:27.220 ⇒ 00:15:28.640 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, no, I can’t create a new one.
147 00:15:28.640 ⇒ 00:15:31.689 Uttam Kumaran: So you think it probably takes 2 weeks, like.
148 00:15:32.360 ⇒ 00:15:34.350 Uttam Kumaran: probably like 40 h total right?
149 00:15:37.000 ⇒ 00:15:38.770 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, 40, 50.
150 00:15:39.440 ⇒ 00:15:43.949 Miguel de Veyra: But the I think the main thing there that could, you know, derail things is
151 00:15:44.210 ⇒ 00:15:49.590 Miguel de Veyra: how responsive they will be with us, but they’re not really a big team. So I’m not. It shouldn’t be a problem.
152 00:15:50.340 ⇒ 00:15:55.939 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, okay, cool. What else? What else going on today?
153 00:15:56.420 ⇒ 00:15:58.020 Miguel de Veyra: I’ll have a meeting with
154 00:15:59.770 ⇒ 00:16:02.730 Miguel de Veyra: Eddie in like 15 min from now.
155 00:16:03.160 ⇒ 00:16:04.650 Uttam Kumaran: He’s gonna join for sure.
156 00:16:05.324 ⇒ 00:16:06.659 Miguel de Veyra: No, no, not yet.
157 00:16:07.694 ⇒ 00:16:10.449 Miguel de Veyra: I did make some changes on the Vm.
158 00:16:10.510 ⇒ 00:16:16.589 Miguel de Veyra: basically, just because some selectors were fucked. So it’s not working anymore, like properly.
159 00:16:17.320 ⇒ 00:16:20.400 Miguel de Veyra: So I updated those. And then
160 00:16:20.820 ⇒ 00:16:23.069 Miguel de Veyra: I don’t know. I was planning to
161 00:16:23.090 ⇒ 00:16:27.020 Miguel de Veyra: like introduce that we’re, you know, looking into
162 00:16:27.210 ⇒ 00:16:34.329 Miguel de Veyra: scraping Kroger and Walmart. I’m pretty sure they’re selling there, too. I’ll double check. Maybe they’re interested in, you know, setting up something there.
163 00:16:35.370 ⇒ 00:16:40.009 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, one of someone just emailed me asking if we can help them to scrape from Walmart.
164 00:16:40.820 ⇒ 00:16:42.350 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, I’m working on that.
165 00:16:42.600 ⇒ 00:16:43.310 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
166 00:16:46.840 ⇒ 00:16:53.979 Miguel de Veyra: But yeah, that was because, honestly, there’s really nothing to discuss with Eddie, because
167 00:16:54.050 ⇒ 00:16:56.939 Miguel de Veyra: it’s all in the email chain already we discussed earlier.
168 00:16:56.990 ⇒ 00:16:59.799 Miguel de Veyra: But I was planning to, you know, basically just ask him if
169 00:17:00.250 ⇒ 00:17:03.760 Miguel de Veyra: that’s something they’re interested in. Maybe we could sign them for a few more hours.
170 00:17:18.589 ⇒ 00:17:21.909 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, yeah, maybe I’ll just shoot him a message if it’s gonna push through.
171 00:17:38.900 ⇒ 00:17:40.730 Miguel de Veyra: What else? What else?
172 00:17:50.280 ⇒ 00:17:53.849 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, yeah, I have to hop on a call with Ico and Luke.
173 00:18:08.750 ⇒ 00:18:12.990 Miguel de Veyra: Is there anything else on your side with them that we need to discuss.
174 00:18:15.640 ⇒ 00:18:20.560 Uttam Kumaran: No, I I send a message about recruiting, so can you connect me with the guy? AI guy on on your side?
175 00:18:20.560 ⇒ 00:18:22.689 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, yeah, I’ll speak with him tomorrow.
176 00:18:22.760 ⇒ 00:18:26.240 Miguel de Veyra: because, you know, sorry 3 am my time, and that’s a week.
177 00:18:26.830 ⇒ 00:18:30.829 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, can you set up a meeting between between us.
178 00:18:31.030 ⇒ 00:18:32.030 Miguel de Veyra: Okay? Sure.
179 00:18:32.642 ⇒ 00:18:37.100 Miguel de Veyra: There’s also another girl I’ve worked with before, like on a previous company.
180 00:18:38.888 ⇒ 00:18:41.390 Miguel de Veyra: But it’s more like the automation side of things
181 00:18:41.690 ⇒ 00:18:44.740 Miguel de Veyra: cause. Casey is more talented in the AI side, right.
182 00:18:45.780 ⇒ 00:18:48.550 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. Just set up. Set up. Set up meeting with both of them this week.
183 00:18:48.870 ⇒ 00:18:49.950 Miguel de Veyra: Okay. Sure. Sure.
184 00:18:50.180 ⇒ 00:19:01.810 Uttam Kumaran: I just want to get everybody in. I want to have talk to everybody before, because otherwise we’re gonna get slammed like, if if these guys close. Then I want A/C to be super focused on them.
185 00:19:01.810 ⇒ 00:19:02.350 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah.
186 00:19:02.650 ⇒ 00:19:04.130 Uttam Kumaran: Then we’ll need one more person.
187 00:19:05.630 ⇒ 00:19:08.440 Miguel de Veyra: Okay, yeah, I’ll speak with them.
188 00:19:19.590 ⇒ 00:19:21.780 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, yeah, I was gonna ask, by the way,
189 00:19:22.950 ⇒ 00:19:25.530 Miguel de Veyra: cause it looks like we’re not really gonna hire a Pm.
190 00:19:25.760 ⇒ 00:19:29.639 Miguel de Veyra: Right? In the meantime, there’s just no budget for it. I think.
191 00:19:32.820 ⇒ 00:19:37.109 Uttam Kumaran: I mean what? Tell me what? Tell me what your actual question is?
192 00:19:39.130 ⇒ 00:19:49.191 Miguel de Veyra: I was planning to like hop on a call with Nico. Because I think why we don’t have a Pm. I have to do those stuff right? I just wanna have, like, you know, like, how do you actually do those stuff like usually.
193 00:19:49.420 ⇒ 00:19:53.909 Uttam Kumaran: So I’m gonna so I’m gonna set up like we’re gonna so I know, we talked about this last week in leadership.
194 00:19:53.930 ⇒ 00:20:00.330 Uttam Kumaran: I’m going to set up a meeting to talk about all the Pm. Expectations, probably tomorrow or Wednesday.
195 00:20:00.600 ⇒ 00:20:01.620 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, wow!
196 00:20:01.930 ⇒ 00:20:04.610 Uttam Kumaran: Basically, I’m gonna go through everything for like.
197 00:20:04.630 ⇒ 00:20:12.400 Uttam Kumaran: what type of client communications? What’s the sla’s? We’re gonna have a probably a project management review process.
198 00:20:12.560 ⇒ 00:20:15.569 Uttam Kumaran: So I’m gonna set. We’re gonna talk about that this week.
199 00:20:15.740 ⇒ 00:20:22.099 Uttam Kumaran: Most likely. Yeah, I’ll I’ll I’ll ask you to handle it for the AI clients.
200 00:20:22.100 ⇒ 00:20:22.500 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah.
201 00:20:23.570 ⇒ 00:20:25.280 Uttam Kumaran: And then we will go after.
202 00:20:25.740 ⇒ 00:20:30.709 Uttam Kumaran: Basically, I want to understand whether Nico can handle it or we’ll have to go after another. Pm.
203 00:20:31.140 ⇒ 00:20:32.090 Miguel de Veyra: Okay. Yeah.
204 00:20:32.520 ⇒ 00:20:35.330 Uttam Kumaran: But ideally like I wanna get somebody who like
205 00:20:35.480 ⇒ 00:20:37.890 Uttam Kumaran: I want to get somebody who who can like.
206 00:20:37.930 ⇒ 00:20:42.550 Uttam Kumaran: who knows at least a little bit of AI stuff, so
207 00:20:42.710 ⇒ 00:20:49.490 Uttam Kumaran: we’ll see. But we can’t. We can’t. I can’t set the expectations right until I met them, so.
208 00:20:49.820 ⇒ 00:20:50.720 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, yeah.
209 00:20:56.360 ⇒ 00:21:07.190 Miguel de Veyra: cause cause that was like that became like one of the main problems. And like my previous company, where I was basically the head of AI and engineering right?
210 00:21:07.670 ⇒ 00:21:16.759 Miguel de Veyra: And then I was also the one communicating with clients supporting the developers. And then we had Pm’s. But then they don’t want to deal with the everyday stuff with the clients.
211 00:21:16.760 ⇒ 00:21:18.240 Uttam Kumaran: No, no fuck that like.
212 00:21:18.240 ⇒ 00:21:22.160 Miguel de Veyra: So I was like, I’m doing 2 jobs now.
213 00:21:22.400 ⇒ 00:21:24.869 Uttam Kumaran: No fuck that. That’s not what’s gonna happen.
214 00:21:29.420 ⇒ 00:21:30.730 Uttam Kumaran: So yeah.
215 00:22:06.090 ⇒ 00:22:08.720 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, yeah, we should add your message, shit.
216 00:23:10.330 ⇒ 00:23:13.900 Uttam Kumaran: Can we go through the what else is on the AI board this week?
217 00:23:15.882 ⇒ 00:23:17.210 Miguel de Veyra: Let me check.
218 00:23:20.960 ⇒ 00:23:33.420 Miguel de Veyra: Well, the the voice is technically done. For the AI boards, just the evals which is trace loop. They’re still speaking with relevance. And then primarily, I’m focused on the
219 00:23:33.560 ⇒ 00:23:36.610 Miguel de Veyra: raw stuff, the browser base.
220 00:23:37.770 ⇒ 00:23:44.260 Miguel de Veyra: And then, yeah, the one the call with riot. I’ll probably hop on a call with Nico tomorrow, and then look the day after.
221 00:23:45.700 ⇒ 00:23:47.869 Miguel de Veyra: See? You know, stuff we can build
222 00:23:48.960 ⇒ 00:23:52.339 Miguel de Veyra: for them. But yeah, wait. Let me just send a message to Eddie.
223 00:24:03.820 ⇒ 00:24:05.320 Uttam Kumaran: Where can I test the voice?
224 00:24:06.980 ⇒ 00:24:11.500 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, wait, wait! It’s in. Not that the one is about beef.
225 00:24:11.620 ⇒ 00:24:16.040 Miguel de Veyra: I I just need to swap out, cause I created my own cal.com.
226 00:24:16.660 ⇒ 00:24:19.840 Miguel de Veyra: I just need to basically swap out our Api keys.
227 00:24:21.570 ⇒ 00:24:24.389 Uttam Kumaran: And then we also we have an 11 Labs voice.
228 00:24:26.610 ⇒ 00:24:31.159 Miguel de Veyra: Oh, yeah, yeah, that one I haven’t really got. I haven’t had the time to chat
229 00:24:31.590 ⇒ 00:24:34.529 Miguel de Veyra: to work on that. We’ve made some changes on.
230 00:24:35.410 ⇒ 00:24:40.870 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I’m figuring out if we need to do anything for Hpi, we have ABC, we have serious.
231 00:24:40.910 ⇒ 00:24:46.979 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, so let me, we have one more thing for Hpi, that may come up. But I’m gonna just check if we’re gonna do that.
232 00:24:53.740 ⇒ 00:24:59.679 Uttam Kumaran: okay, raw, organic demo. Yeah. So that’s that’s still, like we need Walmart Kroger, right?
233 00:24:59.680 ⇒ 00:25:03.209 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah, yeah, that’s I’m prioritizing that right now. Because I think.
234 00:25:03.210 ⇒ 00:25:06.190 Uttam Kumaran: That that would be huge. So let’s focus on that.
235 00:25:06.610 ⇒ 00:25:11.210 Uttam Kumaran: And then are you working on that? Or is Casey also working on that.
236 00:25:12.067 ⇒ 00:25:14.679 Miguel de Veyra: No case is working a lot in internal agents right now.
237 00:25:14.680 ⇒ 00:25:16.370 Uttam Kumaran: Internal stuff. Okay? Cool. Okay.
238 00:25:18.580 ⇒ 00:25:19.550 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. Great.
239 00:25:21.840 ⇒ 00:25:27.259 Miguel de Veyra: Yeah. For the AI stuff. I think we pretty much finished majority of it last week.
240 00:25:27.830 ⇒ 00:25:33.120 Miguel de Veyra: like at least for the demo side, the vo, the voice. I just need to swap out
241 00:25:33.310 ⇒ 00:25:36.279 Miguel de Veyra: your keys, and then, you know, you can test it out.
242 00:25:36.980 ⇒ 00:25:39.590 Miguel de Veyra: But you know the voice isn’t really our priority right now.
243 00:25:40.100 ⇒ 00:25:40.660 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
244 00:25:42.670 ⇒ 00:25:46.460 Miguel de Veyra: And then the website chat board. It’s pretty much also done. It’s there.
245 00:25:46.640 ⇒ 00:25:48.919 Miguel de Veyra: But again, not priority.
246 00:25:52.280 ⇒ 00:25:58.870 Miguel de Veyra: So yeah, I think that’s pretty much it. The ABC. One was the top priority we finished last week.
247 00:25:59.430 ⇒ 00:26:01.299 Miguel de Veyra: I’m not sure if you were able to test it.
248 00:26:05.180 ⇒ 00:26:10.740 Uttam Kumaran: I have tested it. Yeah, but that one looks good. I’m gonna test a little bit more this week.
249 00:26:10.740 ⇒ 00:26:14.029 Miguel de Veyra: Okay, I mean, it’s not really that complicated. To be honest.
250 00:26:30.906 ⇒ 00:26:34.630 Miguel de Veyra: I can. I can hear my girl. How do you say it?
251 00:26:35.610 ⇒ 00:26:36.435 Miguel de Veyra: Snore.
252 00:26:58.370 ⇒ 00:27:00.310 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, dude. Alright. I’m gonna go eat lunch.
253 00:27:00.590 ⇒ 00:27:01.910 Miguel de Veyra: Okay. Yeah. Sure.
254 00:27:02.770 ⇒ 00:27:08.689 Uttam Kumaran: You’ll be on for a bit. I’m gonna try to get yeah, if you’re not. It’s fine. But I’m gonna book some meetings for the rest of this week. For, like product.
255 00:27:10.506 ⇒ 00:27:12.239 Miguel de Veyra: You mean part of development.
256 00:27:12.450 ⇒ 00:27:13.130 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
257 00:27:13.470 ⇒ 00:27:16.779 Miguel de Veyra: Okay, sure. Sure, I’ll probably wait for at least
258 00:27:16.790 ⇒ 00:27:21.780 Miguel de Veyra: reply, for I don’t know 1015 min. If not, then I’ll probably go to bed.
259 00:27:23.640 ⇒ 00:27:26.939 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, yeah. I mean, hop on the meeting. And then if he doesn’t join, then yeah.
