[00:00] Christopher David: All right, let's take a look at our roadmap. First a quick recap. So in April, we launched our chat MVP that's working fine.

[00:08] Christopher David: Chat with 18ish models, one subscription. Cool. We just launched our agent store.

[00:15] Christopher David: Basic functionality is working fine there. Featured agents at the top. How many chats? How many people use it? Trending.

[00:23] Christopher David: Very basic, but it works. You can upload PDFs and we'll improve the rag and stuff over time.

[00:29] Christopher David: But core functionality works. We've been kind of paying manually every day.

[00:35] Christopher David: Agent payouts. We're going to start switching this into auto. But yeah, look at this. We've paid infinity percent more developers than OpenAI has.

[00:44] Christopher David: You can't even compare our payouts to OpenAI's because it's error divided by zero on their end.

[00:50] Christopher David: Because they're so busy paying lawyers and plaintiffs. And we're going to keep paying developers. And then I kind of catch up with this.

[00:57] Christopher David: That feels nice. Okay. So the roadmap.

[01:03] Christopher David: So by the end of this month kind of rolling out mostly next week, we're going to be switching the kind of manual payouts into more programmatic payouts tied to usage.

[01:17] Christopher David: We're going to be starting to phase out the like bounties that we've been paying for plugins because we just now have a lot of them

[01:24] Christopher David: And encouraging people to make money through uploading agents and soon plugins all via RUI.

[01:32] Christopher David: But we want it there to be like a lot of transparency around. Hey, you got paid because this person sent a chat message to your agent and to get you little like notification.

[01:42] Christopher David: Some of that stuff we're going to be building and I'm going to kind of get back into our routine of building features on the video stream here.

[01:50] Christopher David: So all stream a bunch of this building and you'll see us build and launch that into this month.

[01:56] Christopher David: Aside from like having that core sort of economic engine in place of people paying for stuff and then the payouts going out to the builders.

[02:06] Christopher David: We want to allow more kind of social discovery to surface what's good and what sucks. So we're going to be building some basic social features around here.

[02:16] Christopher David: And I think people see profiles and let you like follow your favorite agent builders and being able to comment you can comment on agents like hey this one hallucinated this one sucks.

[02:26] Christopher David: Yeah, that'll help with discovery.

[02:29] Christopher David: Our.

[02:31] Christopher David: So that kind of stuff I'll be building and so we'll do that on stream and then the rest of our developers are focused on the agents plugins UI.

[02:38] Christopher David: So all these like 15ish plugins that developers have made we've got a big list of those.

[02:43] Christopher David: I think there's some stuff live now where like some agents can have tools enabled or like try to pick the best plugin building a lot of that stuff kind of in the background.

[02:54] Christopher David: Last week and next week.

[02:56] Christopher David: But in June we're going to be rolling out more of the UI so you can kind of click and associate what plugins you want with your agents.

[03:03] Christopher David: And then you know any plugins that you use some share of the revenue will go to those plugin builders.

[03:08] Christopher David: And so that's what's going to we think have a lot more useful agents happen because instead of just the basic like prompt engineering and rag.

[03:16] Christopher David: We've got the community providing plugins to enable agents to be upgraded.

[03:22] Christopher David: So kind of slotting that into the marketplace with the same rev share as the agent builders.

[03:27] Christopher David: And quarter three going to be just envision all of that except having drag and drop nodes and that's probably when we're going to be leaning more into the third party integrations.

[03:37] Christopher David: You can envision you have the kind of things that's apiard does where you can like kind of drag and drop different workflows doing that except with community provided plugins and agents.

[03:47] Christopher David: Yeah, just kind of building out our multi sided marketplace and then by quarter four or so we should have conquered the world.

[03:57] Christopher David: So don't you think I think this is reasonable to map. Okay, any comments questions, throw them in our tweet here or you know pop over to our community on staggered.News which is going quite well.

[04:09] Christopher David: And yeah, we're chatting about stuff.

[04:13] Christopher David: See you soon.
