And then there's like, well, how fast do your tests run?
How quickly can you actually deploy?
I'll share a story on that, which is quite funny.
It's like the first time we hired a product manager at Ramp was Jeff.
It's like he came into the organization.
He had some experience being a PM at another organization, and he looks at the way we are prioritizing work and cutting up chunks of work.
And he's a little bit appalled that we are not sizing the different levels of effort for the different tasks.
A lot of companies will do this.
Oh, there are 10 things we want to do.
Like this one is five points and we'll take five hours.
And this one is one point and we'll take one hour and whatever.
And he's like freaking out that we're not really measuring how long we think things will take.
And he's trying to introduce that.
And I get freaked out.
I was like, why are you doing this, Jeff?
He's like, well, because so that we can know how fast we're actually moving.
I was like, wait, you don't think we're moving fast enough?
He's like, no, I think we're moving incredibly fast, like faster than any place I've seen, but I just want to measure it.
And I believe that there's a little bit of a Schrodinger's principle there where it's like, you can get a lot of precision on how long things take, or you could do them very fast.
It's hard to get both because if you start to put a lot of importance on measuring in advance, how long you think things will take and estimating that long.
