A

Everyone, this is our iteration release, video for the product, Marketing Group, uh May, 18th, I'm, gonna answer with Jess go in the room, see we worked on acceleration.

B

Thank you, I'm, just going to share my screen uh so I'm talking about two things for this Sprint, the first one is a Solutions page for inner source, which was a page we hadn't actually touched in like the three years the steam has been together. So it's finally getting an update.

B

um You know following kind of the same pattern as our our Solutions Pages, do um desperately needed that update. So that's great and then uh the second thing actually started as um something I worked with the growth team on, but I think we're going to use it across many things, including the marketing site. So it's this not necessarily going to be in this hero, but it's this um AI code suggestions animation.

B

um So this is just an example of one python version where we can actually translate englishes with sorry translate languages with code suggestions, so you need to type in this little code and it can tell you, oh you want to do it in Spanish Etc. um It does it in a bunch of different languages and we have um videos of things they can do so that'll be really cool once we have that we can use it across uh many different things.

B

um I got blocked, unfortunately, for a couple other things I was working on, and so hopefully those will go out next Sprint, but uh I will pass it to Mateo.

C

You just um share my screen.

C

All right so there's the smaller things I was working on uh the Atlanta page for the world tour uh still needed some changes in content, so I was doing that um small follow-up to the tracking in the solutions page that I did last iteration um I also worked on migrating, a bunch of pages, that's the bitpanda page significant and the syncretron Soleil page, and then most of my duration went into the solutions AI page, which is this one.

C

As this animation, which places you scroll, then a few new components now here and that's it for migration, I'll, pass it over to Laura.

D

Thanks uh this iteration I did a couple of the case. Study, migrations, I, don't know if we show those but I guess I. Can um they look familiar? As you know this, this sort of thing I think these are the only visible things that I did um and they're waiting for the customer's approval. uh So they're not live yeah. These are just the review apps.

D

um Otherwise, I did my very last. Hopefully, uh navigation release for a little while um and I got that out to add the. Why get lab page to the the top level navigation um I picked up fixed up some links on the solutions. Pages. Some of those cards were going to uh other links, um I removed the uh a B test from our buyer experience repository.

D

um This was the A B test that was testing the free trial button in the navigation um with like the regular black button or like a gleam black button.

D

um It ran for like two weeks and it was like an exact tie so we're keeping the control like the regular black button, um but someday we'll get a gleam into our our repository um and then other than that, uh oh yeah.

D

Just more fixes, uh we removed one of the case studies from the small business page and and um fixed up a few links on that page as well, um and then I updated the template for our case studies, um some of them the links on the the case study, template, didn't, have Google analytics tracking, so I updated that so that Dennis can track everything that he needs. um I think that's it for me and I'll go to Miguel.

E

Thank you, um I share my screen.

E

uh This situation, I I, also worked in a in a case study customer case sorry, uh which went live, uh I use the the same template that we we have for customers, so that was good and I was I, also migrated a bunch of icons that were logos, company logos uh from the slippers report to the buyer, experience repo and um also I, started working on a first version of the the code suggestions component, uh which hopefully uh will have a demo next week and um yeah next iteration yeah that that's for me, I'll, pass it over to Justin.

A

Yeah, that's what I highlight something uh Miguel: remove the logos from slippers it reduced like our one of our largest JS packages by 300 or 300K, just removing those from so that was every single page was loading that in so it's nice that they're gone, but everything still works good. So that was a huge win there thanks, Michael um and novice is out um chat a few things he's you worked on. He fixed uh some logos issues, uh customer case studies.

A

um He also migrated a bunch of things over custom cases like everyone else, um I did uh to ask him to um find all of slash, handbook and or slash company pages in buyer experience, there's still linked to those, as the handbook is being ripped out into its new repo new domain.

A

um Some of these are less important, but we have uh links on our competitor pages tool, Pages stuff, like that, that we want to make sure that when those pages migrate over, it's not a redirect of a redirect to get to the new handbag page that those are like a first link. So we have it all documented. So we can jump on those right away uh uh as well as oh, and he did um another size thing we with horse help.

A

You pushed up like the large image compression um Mr and he saved us with this pass about 50 Megs of image size that is no longer being loaded on the site. So another big win there for page speed and mobile, optimization.

A

And I think that's about it. Thank you. Everyone.
