I appreciate you saying that.

This episode is brought to you by our season's presenting sponsor, WorkOS.

What do OpenAI, Anthropic, Cursor, Vercel, Replit, Sierra, Clay, and hundreds of other winning companies all have in common?

They are all powered by WorkOS.

If you're building a product for the enterprise, you've felt the pain of integrating single sign-on, skim, RBAC, audit logs, and other features required by large companies.

WorkOS turns those deal blockers into drop-in APIs with a modern developer platform built specifically for B2B SaaS.

Literally every startup that I'm an investor in that starts to expand upmarket ends up working with WorkOS.

And that's because they are the best.

Whether you are a seed stage startup trying to land your first enterprise customer or a unicorn expanding globally, WorkOS is the fastest path to becoming enterprise-ready and unblocking growth.

It's essentially Stripe for enterprise features.

Visit WorkOS.com to get started or just hit up their Slack where they have actual engineers waiting to answer your questions.

WorkOS allows you to build faster with delightful APIs, comprehensive docs, and a smooth developer experience.

you have a new book out called Incorruptible.

It's a very different, very different book from The Lean Startup.

It feels very personal in a lot of ways.

The way I've heard you describe the combination of The Lean Startup and this new book is The Lean Startup was about helping you build a successful company and Incorruptible is about helping you protect what you've built.

I want to start with that second part of

protecting what you've built?

What is it that you need protection from?
