that ultimately you are creating some form of artifact that is not easy to collaborate on or share with others other than the form of a final document or text thread.

So that is well understood by anyone who works in a model and you can understand how you could create a great deal of inefficiency by multiple people spinning up the same versions of a similar research project.

What I will often do is when I am doing research of that nature, I will often connect it up via our, our MCP connection.

And so take MCP is just a form of being able to connect multiple types of systems in, into a models, but using your APIs.

And in our case, I will connect up the models that I use into my instance of right.

where as I create research, I will extract the key areas and I will use that to track both context and collaboration with my senior team.

So let's say I'm digging into a thread on competitive features in my space or a go-to-market move that I'm seeing in the marketplace.

I can use this to set up a structure within Rake where I've got a project, I've got the shared research, which is that context, and then I'm actually assigning actions and accountability on that basis where we're able to look at it.

When I then come and pick up a future use case as a follow-on, I can instruct the model to go back in there and look at that prior project or task that I've set up, use that to inject into the context window rather than spinning up all this all over again as a research thread.

That's a really good example of using

how I see a way to tie some of these pieces together.

And it's a very different conversations with customers on the types of workflows that they are utilizing.

But that is a common example that I use when talking to them as a way to take something they understand both at the work management level, as well as at the model level and say, look, here's a way to make this more powerful for you to be able to get value.

Yeah, this is a really good example of something where

I had a going-in point of view that has been challenged in conversations that I've had with our customers.

going in point of view was that there would be a cleaner segmentation of how customers thought about that question that you just posed, which is, is it a bring your own model discussion?

Is it a use the agent inside the existing application?

Is it the

We just want to keep using the application as it is today.

And I find that sometimes, in fact, frequently, I'm having all three of those conversations with the same customer and often the same person.
