I'm gr McNichol I'm the co-founder and CEO of growth book we're an open source feature flagging and a testing platform we use AI to help uh make experimentation better so we have automatic AI suggestions that you can use we're also looking to um use AI to make the discovery of metrics and um possible ideas more accessible within the application so you can kind of just have it suggest uh experimentation you should do and maybe even tell you what what the results of the experiment are and so to sort of automate a lot of that manual work for you we're working a lot um we're using some pretty big Enterprises and they have specific needs that we're building bu um a lot of them are around uh just making the experience of experimentation like really effortless and um you know a lot of people don't realize that experimentation like some people say they run a lot of experiments and they're running five experiments a month and some people say they run a lot and they're running 10,000 experiments a month there's a pretty big gap there and that the tools are quite different and we're trying to help everyone get to the point where they can run the tens of thousands of experiments so there a lot of work on documentation and process and organization that we're adding to the platform um but I would be lying if I said I knew exactly what we' be doing in a year tend to only plan like you know a couple months out so yeah this's one talk in particular tomorrow around um us using AI to help developer efficiency I'm very interested to learn about that it's a a very developer heavy conference with a lot of technical talks and a lot of smart people
