[00:23:51] S0: Absolutely. Well, this is one thing, we were talking about a lot on our team is that Notion AI can now connect with all of our different knowledge bases. I think my coveted said a message, like, ignorance is now, unacceptable, because people should just ask questions to the knowledge base. [00:24:09] S1: So you've talked a little bit about how you use Notion. What about our AI products? [00:24:14] S0: Yeah. I really like drafting things with them, of course. I think it's the first one. And then I think the second thing is the knowledge base retrieval. Especially, I know the connectors are newer, but as those develop over time to not just read from all of our applications, but also write in all of them, I think that's really exciting. Because ultimately, context is at the heart of all productivity and having the tool that has all the context on our interactions is the, you know, most important way to leverage that. [00:24:47] S1: What's one building block of advice you'd leave behind for early stage founders? [00:24:53] S0: I think it's find the thing that you're obsessed with because self discipline will only go so far. It's the problem that... [00:25:02] S1: Especially if you're not disciplined to with. [00:25:03] S0: Especially if you're not disciplined to begin with. Right? It's a thing that you can't stop thinking about and you just need to keep coming back to because that's the draw that will last for the decade that it takes to build a business.

[00:25:17] S1: And my last question is, if you had to rebuild Merkor from scratch today, what is the first block you'd start with? [00:25:24] S0: I think it would be the team because I think that early on you do a lot to discover the market and the problem and what it needs to look like versus now that I have more of an understanding of that, it's like I need to have the people that I really trust in place to execute. And so it all does come back to hiring in one way or another. [00:25:50] S1: Doing it great. Yeah. Right? Doing it great with people you wanna build with. Absolutely. I love that. Alright. You.
