Great advice! Folks often don't realize some of the almost irreversible things they can do with their cap table that will be instant red flags to investors. 👏

I was happy to do my small part as a judge but you could tell so much time and effort went into highlighting the cohort companies (amazing highlight reels) and into the event itself @ Gardiner Museum.

Big congrats to the winners Numr CXM, Tinybox Systems, Swiirl, and to Kare Chemical Technologies for winning the People's Choice Award. 👏 🥳

This is why we've spent a ton of time making sure the context in our systems and workflows are well curated and maintained so that effectiveness multiplies as we layer on more Agentic flows.

Do you... have a twin? Otherwise, sounds like a company that is constantly going through a re-org?

I'm actually seeing the largest impact coming from folks outside of the engineering world. Designers and PMs are supercharged with context that is very valuable for AI to craft complete solutions.

Folks should always code with this mentality as default. Unless you’re prototyping or hacking something that is throwaway.
