ありがとうございましたー！！
まだ西海岸に来たばっかりですが、地道にプロダクトフォーカスで頑張っています。
もちろんアメリカ市場やるためにも日本市場が我々にとってはとても大事です。
引き続き日本のコミュニティの方々とData Agentの領域を盛り上げて行きたいです！

@CaseyMeraz Some of our customers told me, "we want to use our tool for GA analysis, but we don't have access to our GA account." Happens every time the GA account belongs to someone else 😂

@Hilaanalyst Data cleaning 😂
Every time I clean data, I find the one field that really matters is missing and end up going back to the source.

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

@tylersbryden Seeing this a lot. The AI recommendation happens off the record, and analytics only sees the search that came after.

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

@victorinpublic The report landing while you're at the gym is the right order of things. Love this.

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

@Brendon_Arch @a16z Exactly. A ping people learn to ignore is just another dashboard nobody opens. It has to know what the team actually cares about first.

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

@Brendon_Arch @a16z Agents doing the reading is exactly it. The dashboard becomes context for the agent, and the human only hears about it when something moved.

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

@paras_doshi Same movie, new ending maybe. Opening one now costs about the same as asking a chat, so the bottleneck is deciding to look. The dashboards stay useful as context. The data just has to speak first.

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

When opening a dashboard costs the same as asking a chat, neither one is the bottleneck anymore. Deciding to look is.

No one wants to check more dashboards. Data should speak first instead.

@knowixbuilds @treg_ai Closing all the GA tabs feels so good. One watcher for every site is exactly the kind of quiet win that saves a Monday morning.

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

@AdiCoSto @attio CRMs were made for humans clicking around. Agents need to query. Love that.

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

AI made building a dashboard almost free.
Getting anyone to open it is still hard.

How many of your dashboards did anyone open last month?

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

@Gustav_Joubert Technology amplifies decisions' is the line:) The cleanest dashboard in the world still waits for someone to open it.

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

@nicklaunches Building Squadbase. Instead of you opening a dashboard and asking, your data tells you what changed and what to do next. Happy Wednesday.

@pashuk Ha, guilty. The refresh habit is the tell that the dashboard isn't doing its job.

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

@JacquelineSYC19 Great point that it's the consumer that changed, not the data. A human can shrug at an hour-old dashboard. An agent acting on it can't.

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

@Sixtylicious 'Today, not next Monday' is the whole point. Honestly the number I want first is whichever one moved the most overnight, and that's rarely the one I'd think to check.

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

@cristinayang77 Love this. The part I'd watch: the dashboard only helps on the days you open it. Most of the expensive stuff (one campaign quietly dying, checkout tracking breaking) happens on the days you don't. What made you finally build it this week?

[Naoto Shibata @sbtqueue]

@leonagano Nice! What was the first question you asked it? I've found the most useful answers come from the questions I'd never think to ask, like which single landing page quietly dropped last week.
