Feedback highlights that adoption is a multi-stakeholder, team-wide decision and that onboarding and implementation need to be seamless, including importing existing product documentation and expanding the AI assistant to create roadmap items. \nFaith updated messaging and a new website to position it as a strategic CPO purchase focused on CEO/board decision-making and commercial alignment, prioritising UK/EU B2B SaaS (especially PE-backed). Polarised reactions informed a two-tier pricing model (tactical feedback/roadmapping vs outcome and goal alignment). \nNext she’ll chase testers, prepare four beta users, improve agent reliability, data security, and integrations, and move to a more robust stack with evals tooling; a future episode will feature Ed Biden on evals and production readiness.\n00:00 Weekly Check In\n01:09 Early User Signals\n02:20 Onboarding And AI Assistant\n03:06 Messaging And Jobs To Be Done\n04:30 Ideal Customer Profile\n05:45 Maturity And Pricing Tiers\n07:32 Next Week Execution Plan\n08:20 Stack Upgrade And Evals\n09:05 Confidence And Hiring Help\n11:19 Next Episode Preview\nLearn more about Discoveree: https://discoveree.com/","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/zRtsvl0fP7pXHBBa0YY5Eq9tGJczgYrCbA80W7Cr0VY/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8yYTJm/MDM0NDYxN2QwMGZi/ODhlNGVkNGM0MmVl/MDQwMC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
