SaaStr Annual Know Before You Go!

You come on your badge, come get your badge Monday if you're super excited. If not, we'll see you here Tuesday. And so there's a bunch of stuff we wanted to just help you guys go through as an attendee, know before you go, before you come to SaaStr. So cool, let's hit it. I'm going to share my screen. I'll go through just a few things for folks to know before you go. So yeah, SaaStr kicks off in, you know, I think that's counting down to one. We rope drop 4 days. Everything's looking fun here. So yeah, a few things we're going to run through the essentials, things to know. Feel free to drop questions in the chat as you have them. We'll, we'll do some Q&A at the end here, but that way you guys have a good gist of everything you should know before you go. So let me share my screen here. Okay, here it is. All right, cool. Awesome. So In this know before you go, so this is live on sasreannual.com. If you come over to this purple attendee portal, you'll see the same view I am seeing here. So this is the know before you go. A lot of this you can find in like various places at the website, but we wanted to just consolidate it for you guys. So as a quick reference right now, if you need help with something pre-event, you can email our events team, events@sasreannual.com. As we flip to show days, the fastest way to get an answer for somebody will be to come to the registration the help desk that is at registration because that's where we will be. So, um, before you get here, um, one, we did put the attendee Wi-Fi password here. It's going to be everywhere on campus, brought to you by our friends at Artisan, but we put it here as well so that you can take a screenshot, save it, you already have it handy for when you come to SASTR. Hours for the event. So yeah, we officially kick off Tuesday at 12:30. Folks do line up early, so if that's something you want to do, feel free to do that. But yeah, we officially open doors at 12:30 and I believe the first session starts a little bit after 1 o'clock with Jason M. Lemkin. So that's Tuesday. Come Tuesday, it's Deploy Day. There's a lot of sessions on deploying an agent. There's happy hour that day. There's gonna be a lot. It's gonna be jammed. I know sometimes people think, oh, I could skip the first day because it's quiet. It's kind of the opposite for us. The first day is usually pretty jammin'. So, and with the inclusion of Deploy Summit this year, Should be a super fun time. Lots to go through and talk about on deploying agents IRL. So hopefully that'll be fun for folks. Wednesday, if this is your first day, then we open gates at 8:00 AM. And then Thursday, if that's your final day, then we, again, we open gates at 8:00 AM. Come at any time. Come early. There's always something to do. There's plenty of spaces and coffee and Wi-Fi to hang out. So it should be a fun time, especially if you're traveling. We do things like bag check and coat check if you're traveling. To store things as you're coming and going. We do ask though, if you're not checking something, that you do like pack light if needed. So, so cool. This is where the— I'm sorry, let me move this person. So cool. Make sure you guys can see my screen. Cool. All right. All right, I'll keep going. The— all right, so that's, that's the gist. So what do you need for badge pickup? We put it here at the top. There's two things you should do before you come to make it super easy to breeze through check-in. One, you should download the SaaStr Who Do You Wanna Meet app, which we'll talk about in a little bit. That is the best way to get in. If you use the app, you'll get your check-in QR code. You can just scan it when you get here, makes it super fast. We don't have to like look you up in the system. Download the app. You need the app for networking anyway, so you might as well download the app. It's called SaaStr Who Do You Wanna Meet. I know there's like an old SaaStr app floating out there, so Look for the one that specifically says SASTR, who do you want to meet? That'll be the right one to do. Check-in and badge pickup. Now there is early badge pickup noted here. So if you're coming early, if you're traveling into town and you're already here Monday and you don't want to wait in the long lines, you can come to Monday early badge pickup. And then there's also satellite badge pickup if you're staying at the Hampton Inn. If you're not staying there, you could still go there, get your badge before you come on Tuesday. What that means is if you get your badge early, that whenever you come back, you'll be able to use the express line. You won't have to go through as long of a line to come back in. So make sure you download the app. That'll be the easiest thing to get you here. What to bring, and then also maybe what not to bring. So in addition to download the app to get your check-in QR code, make sure you have a valid photo ID with you each day that you're coming to disaster. So not only on the first day when you get your badge, but each subsequent day. Because we do daily ID checks. So you will need a photo ID of you every day. We always have people ask, but yes, you can use a digital copy of your ID as long as it's valid. So it can't be like an expired license or an expired passport. It does have to be valid and it does have to be you. So those are the two rules for IDs there. But if you're not comfortable bringing like, you know, your passport with you every day, you can show us a photo of it. Again, it just needs to be valid and it needs to be you. Preferably, you know, a physical ID is better. But I get that sometimes some folks just want to use a digital ID. All right, comfortable walking shoes and layers. This is important for the Bay Area. We're at the San Mateo County Event Center. It is an indoor-outdoor campus. Even for our team this week, we've, you know, we've worn layers. You can see I layered this over my hoodie. Like, it gets cold, then it gets warm and stuff like that. And it's a lot of walking. Like, it's a big campus. So make sure you bring comfortable walking shoes. And there is grass, you know, in some areas. I don't want ladies to fall into the grass. So wear comfortable shoes, bring backup phone chargers and battery packs. It's just an essential. You can bring empty water bottles with you, kind of like airport rules. We do have water bottles here as part of the swag store. But if you want to bring your own, there's definitely stations on site to refill. There's coffee on site, etc. So you can bring your own. I've seen people bring their own like tumblers and stuff. Business cards, people still do. Or you can, if you haven't seen it yet, you can do your like SAS or attendee card. Make a little attendee card here that you're coming to the show. Okay, we get asked this question a lot, so I'll, I'll, I'll touch on it briefly of like, what's the food situation? We will add a fun map before you guys get here of like all the different food stations and activations. But basically, because we are an all-encompassing campus, there is like lunch, snacks, coffee provided daily, and then during happy hours, there's, you know, kind of same setup with drinks. Dietary restrictions, we accommodate all the major ones. So if you can't find what you're looking for, just ask a staff member that's at the kitchen. You'll see them if you need something special. Things not to pack, by the way. So other things I wanted to check on of, you know, things you should bring and then things you shouldn't bring. We do mandatory security screenings. Again, you can treat it like an airport when you're checking in. That's the best way to think about it. We do have metal detectors. We have open gates that you walk through, but you have to take your laptop out. Again, it functions like an airport. I'll just pre-say thank you to everyone for being patient with us as we go through, you know, security and bag check. It's just something that even at Disneyland there's lines because it takes a little bit of time to get everybody through. We want to keep you guys safe. That is our goal. I know sometimes other events in the Bay Area don't do this, and so sometimes it feels a little bit frustrating, but trust me, there's so many of you. Our number one goal beyond anything else is to keep you all safe. So Pri, thank you for bearing with us with the security and bag checks. Prohibited items, again, treat it like an airport. So anything you can't take into an airport, I wouldn't take with you to SASTR. Anything that you think is probably on the edge may get confiscated. So things like scissors, anything sharp like that that you might accidentally have in your bag. We do, again, and these are daily, so I always recommend to folks, you know, If you're gonna bring like a, your laptop, which we encourage to like build an agent and stuff, I would still pack light around that. Like I, I try not to bring a backpack on show days. I really just bring, you know, my laptop, maybe a power cable, and then go from there so that you're not, um, too heavy and like bogged down at security cuz they're gonna check everything in your bag. So just keep that in mind. Kind of smaller bags are better, even just tote bags, like just your laptop in it or something like that is better than a backpack. And again, it's at their discretion if they feel like they need to confiscate something or have you check something versus being able to bring it in on campus. So just keep that in mind. We also ask that you keep in mind our code of conduct. You know, we don't want— I know you guys are very excited to get here. We'll get into the exciting stuff next. But, you know, this is an event with thousands and thousands of people. We ask that you be respectful to other attendees who have also traveled in some cases very long multi-day flights to get here at this point. You know, be respectful, be mindful of your peers that will be here and your colleagues that will be here at SASTR. We do have, if it wasn't clear from the earlier point, we do have 24/7 security throughout the campus, again, to keep everybody safe and keep things running. So just keep that in mind. And then if you were worried about things like that, hopefully that makes you feel a little bit better. We do have full, you know, facilities here. So things like outside of registration, if ever you need help, you can always go back to the help desk at registration. If you're like, I lost something, or I need to find the first aid or the staff or, or anything it is, you can just flag folks in like a SAS shirt. Or if you can't find somebody to help you, you can always go back to the help desk at registration. Those are the folks who know, I would say, the most amount of information and can help you from there. So. All right, with that, that's my disclaimer. Let's get into the fun stuff. So hopefully when you guys get here, you have seen by now we're at the San Mateo County Event Center. So we're a big campus in the Bay Area. You know, if you're, if you're trying to plan your travel times, we're about 20 minutes from SFO, which is the closest airport. There are technically 2 entrances to the San Mateo County Event Center. You can use this address. This is kind of the main address if you're going to take an Uber. Or a Lyft. I know sometimes when you take an Uber or Lyft, you just type in San Mateo County Event Center. That's totally fine too. Just know they're going to drop you off at one of the two entrances. So if you want to come to the main entrance, type in this address. This is the main entrance. There's an overflow entrance. At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter which entrance you come to. You can come to any entrance and we will guide you in here. But if you want to maybe be quicker, then I would use the main address. As your actual drop-off point. If you are coming and you are parking, parking is free, but you do need to request a parking pass. So just come here to the attendee portal, request a parking pass here, hit this button, say that you're an attendee, and then just pick what days you need. Super easy there to get your parking pass, and then you'll just need to show it on your phone or print it out to get in for parking for free. So keep that in mind. Again, we just talked about Ubers and DriveShare. If you're staying at the Hampton Inn, which is now one of our sold-out room blocks, There will be a shuttle running to and from campus that you can get on. It runs at these times. Sometimes it gets full at peak time, so you may have to wait a little longer. So if you're trying to get some— try to get here fast, either catch an early shuttle or Uber if you need to, if you're coming to or from at a time where there's a ton of folks. But that should help you cut down on some Ubers if you're staying at the Hampton Inn. Okay, here's a look at our campus. It is a huge area. Trust me, it'll all make sense when you get here. Basically, the biggest thing to know is whichever entrance you come through, um, you're gonna kind of get directed to these two hangars. Now, the two hangars is like the core of our event, but there is a lot going on outside too. So I always preface folks like, there's a lot going on inside, there's a lot going outside, and then people kind of like spread out, which is totally natural, um, from there as they like take meetings, etc., grab things. And so, um, this is the campus map. We'll have these— we actually have these already printed out for you guys for when you get here. So you don't have to memorize this, but it's nice to have it here on your phone. And this will kind of direct you. I think the biggest things to note here is just the stage names, honestly, for when you get here. The rest, you'll kind of like— it will make sense when you see it. You're like, okay, that's why I see the sponsor hall. I see where the networking lounge is. But yeah, for specific stages, this is kind of like the place to know all the names. You'll get the hang of it, I think, by Day 1 or Day 2. And I know there's a question in the chat, like, these, the sessions right now do not have the stages on them. That is on purpose. We gauge session registration and then we assign stages literally this weekend. So you'll see the name start to populate so that you know which stage to go to. We also have signage outside of each stage. So if you're ever like, where did this one go? You can walk by the stage and find the right one. But yeah, this one will have the names of the stages. On the map. It's also here digitally, but that way you know which stage to go to. Basically, the two big AI ones are in Hangar West, and then if you're coming to one of the summits, you'll go to the summit stage. So that's like the CRO, the CCO, or the FDE summit. And if you're going to anything that's on deploy day, Tuesday, or one of the deploy workshops the other two days, then you're pretty much going to the deploy stage. So hopefully it's a little self-explanatory in that. Once you start to get the hang of it. If you're going to one of the vibe coding classes, that's in Replit's vibe coding lounge outside. If you're going to the beer garden, that's outside with Gamma. And so, again, hence comfy shoes, sunglasses, always good to pack too. It's a little sunny. Deep dive and demo stage right here in the middle. Again, you'll get used to it. You'll kind of see the signage on site here, but that's, that's probably the number one thing you need the map for. Cool. The expo booth and floor plan. If you're looking for specific sponsors, this is the best place to find somebody specifically here. There's a lot of sponsors. You're probably going to talk to all of them, most of them by the time you guys get here. There's a lot going in, but you can think of this version of the map as a zoomed-in version of the bigger map. All right, registration and check-in. We talked about a little bit, but just to cover off on for next week. Again, you can use either entrance to the big campus. To come get your badge. And then on Monday and then Tuesday morning, you can also go to the Hampton if you're staying there to go get your badge early as well. So more of the story is we have early badge pickup if you want to come get your badge early. You can get a little bit of swag early and then go, and then that way you come disaster ready the next day. Badge swapping is strictly prohibited. As you guys have heard, we do daily ID checks, so they're going to match up the badge to the name. Hence, the badge swapping is not allowed. If you need to transfer your ticket before it's used, that's something again our help desk can help you with, but not something you can do after the ticket's been used. Security, we talked about. Don't bring anything weird that you wouldn't bring to an airport. You know, drones, balloons fall into that category. Costumes are also at our discretion, so I've seen a few people already on LinkedIn posting like their costumes of, of what they're gonna do. We allow that for sponsors, but if you're not a sponsor, it may get flagged. So just don't be disappointed if you try and bring like your costume and like marketing bomb faster, it's typically shut down. So unless you're a sponsor, so keep that in mind. Okay, more of the fun stuff. Let's go into sessions actually, and then we'll go into networking. So if you haven't yet, you can go to this agenda, hit live agenda. This will keep updating even for live days. It's also in the app, so that's how I typically access it when I'm on site is I go into the app, I pull up the agenda. It's the easiest way to do it. You can save your seat for things. Now we have had folks ask like, do I need to save my seat for things? So there's only a handful of sessions that are capacity constrained. We're outside for some of these stages. Stages are open, so there's not like, you know, hard walls that would stop you from seeing a session. But we do recommend it for things like, so the Vibe Coding classes have a hard cap, and then some of the summits are capped by title slash ticket. So, but outside of that, I would say 95% of sessions you don't need to register for. But if you'd like to, I like to do it just to kind of know where I'm supposed to go at what times of like, that way I'm not like scrambling in real time to see what session I want to go to. I like to just reserve my seat for things. Again, Monday you can come early for, to pick up your badge either at the Hampton Inn or you can just come here to the event center, get your badge. And then Tuesday morning you can go to the Hampton Inn or you can just come here when doors open at 12:30 to get your badge. Tuesday is a big day. We've got the Deploy Summit, we've got CRO Summit, we've got CRO and CEO poker night. We've got a lot of really awesome, really awesome content here throughout the entire day on deploying agents. I know Jason M. Lemkin is going to do the kickoff on how to deploy an agent. We've got Vercel. I'm gonna do how to build an AI BPM marketing live with you guys. Anthropic is this day. That, that one will be super fun. And then Replit is gonna like help us close out the day, if you will. We've got a few more tactical sessions here, but oh yeah, Rory's coming from the 20VC podcast, which a lot of you watch with Harry, Jason, and Rory. So that'll be kind of, that will be, that'll be fun. We'll see if Jason joins him for some rapid-fire AMAs there. So again, lots going on on Tuesday, so don't sleep sleep on Tuesday, sign up for sessions. It's gonna be a lot of content on deploying agents, seemingly rapid fire. So that's Tuesday for you. Wednesday, there's still a lot going on. We recommend coming early. So there's this really great product panel. I know there's a lot of technical folks coming this year to SaaStr. There's a really awesome product panel here, right to kick off the morning. Actually, I think Jason's gonna join this one 'cause it's so good. And then he'll do his like formal kickoff. And then this day's pretty stacked. Now we've got Salesforce, we've got Databricks, we've got Snowflake. We've got Stripe, just even scrolling down the day, Lovable, and we have Lovable times too, actually. So yeah, there's a, there's a lot going on this day. Higgsfield is coming, Cloudflare is coming, like Rippling, like all these great folks. So Wednesday's a stack day. Wednesday you're gonna have to, I think, pick your battles on which ones you wanna go to. But again, we do livestream everything too and record it. So if there's two sessions at the same time, just, you know, pick whichever one you're vibing with, and then the other one's recorded and you can watch it later. Um, Thursday, actually Thursday is a really jam day. It's a, it's a, it's a shorter day, but I think sometimes people get the wrong impression that it's like not as jammed in the morning. So Jason and I are gonna do a version of the Agents Podcast on Thursday morning. If you guys have been watching that, or maybe watch a few minutes of it before you come, we're gonna do a version of that on Thursday to kick everything off. Adam from Owners coming to talk about how he's accelerated to 1 which is a big number. Andrew Bialecki from Klaviyo is gonna be here. SK from— sorry, I should say her full name. Sarah Kennedy from Google Cloud will be here this day. CoreWeave is gonna be here this day. GAM is gonna be here, which is like one of our top sessions. So don't sleep on Thursday. I know sometimes people think, oh, it's like a— and that's another half day. I'm like, we kind of go till like 3 or 4. It's not really a half day. Like, we just are not going until like 7 like the other days, but It's usually pretty jammed, and I actually have heard from both an attendee and sponsor side. It's usually the day where they have like the highest quality, either like meetings or actually close deals on Thursdays because it's not as chaotic. People aren't running around as much. You can actually get work and business done on Thursday. So I really like Thursday from that perspective. Alright, so back to our know before you go. We, Couple other things to know here on networking. So now that we've gone through the whole agenda, we wanna talk about networking 'cause I know we get the most questions about networking. So if you come here, you can either come into the Know Before You Go or you can come into the networking tabs, hit this Know Before You Go program. Who Do You Wanna Meet is the main version of our networking, but there are other things you can do too to help book meetings before you come to SAS Re:ANUAL. So again, if you haven't yet, download the app, You can also access it on desktop. I like to access it though on the mobile app once you get here, because then it's a little bit easier. We did reset everybody their join codes yesterday, so if you couldn't find it, hopefully you can find it now. If you still can't find it, you can ask us. The other thing you can do is when you get here, if you can't find your join code, the folks at the lounge can help you find your code, get in, help you book meetings. That's the best place to go. I wouldn't ask the people at registration for your code. Those people are just gonna get you your badge and they want you to get in. So ask the folks at the lounge if you still, if you still for some reason are having trouble with it, the folks at the lounge can help you out at the lovable Who Do You Wanna Meet networking lounge. Lots of hybrids all over the place. Yeah, download the app. What you'll do is you'll join the app kind of like I have here. You see I've got all my SaaS apps here. Somebody wants to meet me, I'm gonna, no offense to Paul here, but I'm gonna decline this meeting request 'cause I'm a little busy during annual. But this is how you guys will book meetings. So you'll set up your full profile. I do recommend taking the time to fill it out fully. And then you'll come into your people tab. One thing I always like to remind folks is you're only ever gonna see your top matches here. You're not gonna see everybody. Can't tell you the amount of questions we've had where folks are like, I can't see 10,000 people in the app. You're not gonna see 10,000 people in the app ever. You're only gonna see your top matches and your top matches do refresh daily 'cause more people join the app. You gotta think other attendees really join the app super last minute. I— it literally was spiking today with people joining the app. So people do join the app and then it will change your matches, but you're never gonna see everybody in the app the whole time. You're gonna only ever see your top matches. So just keep that in mind. Also keep in mind some people have already hit their meeting limits. So if you're like, I don't know, I'm kind of struggling with this. You know, on the flip side, I have people who are like, I hit 5, and so they've opened up new meetings actually. So just keep that in mind. It will not show everybody on purpose. So you can't just like spam folks coming to FASTR. So if you're— if you were trying to do that, you can't really do that. And also, that's not the goal. Like, the goal is that we help you find your top matches and the folks that are most relevant to you to meet up FASTR, to have, you know, 5 or so meet— 5 or so meetings is a lot if you're looking at the content, looking at the schedule of the day. 5 meetings is a lot. These are like half-hour meetings. So that's quite a lot of time to spend in meetings already, which is also why we have that cap initiated there. So there's other things you can do here, but again, the biggest thing on the mobile app version to know is your check-in QR code is here. So this is all you need. You could just show this in the app version to the folks when you register. They'll have an iPad. You'll just scan this code. Now don't take a screenshot of this. This is my code and I will already be checked in. Use your code in the app. This will be your code to check in to the event. Again, if you try and use mine, it's not going to work because it'll say I'm already checked in. But just so you know, all right, that's networking. That's the mobile app. A couple of other things to know before you come here. Yeah, there are other ways to network beyond just that. So Who Do You Want to Meet is our main networking. There's also things like Meet a VC you can still apply for. It's a little late, but still apply if you want to do it. If you're a founder seeking investment or if you're an investor trying to meet with founders, This is a super popular program and most people do sign up now. So not too late to do who do you want to meet. It is a last call for the pitch comp. So if you come here to the pitch comp, we're going to close submissions at midnight. So we're going to send everybody an email after this as a reminder. But today is like the last day to apply for the pitch comp. If you get chosen and now anyone's eligible, like you don't have to be the founder to do the pitch if you're like, I'm the CRO or I'm the president or whatever, but you're the representative coming from your company and you want to come pitch. I recommend you err on the side of applying and see if you get chosen to pitch versus not applying and then seeing other people pitch. You're like, man, I could have done that. So apply for the Pitch Comp. It's in partnership with our friends at Google. There's some cool prizes. You'll see last week's— last week's— last year's winner is going to have like a whole booth here at SaaStr. Next year's winner will have an even bigger booth. So yeah, and you get to, you get to demo your startup if you are chosen. So there are a couple, I know there are a couple slots left for pitches still to happen. So highly recommend you submit by midnight tonight because we're going to be sending out final, final invitations tomorrow to come pitch next week. And then the finalists, so like the top 3 to 5 people, We'll pick with Google and you'll get to pitch live to everybody on Thursday. So even if you're like, man, I don't know if I want to booth this after, but I do want to pitch to like thousands of people that are going to be here this year. This is the way to do it. Enter the pitch comp. Um, there's some other prizes Google's going to do too, but more than anything, you'll be able to showcase your product if you are chosen to do a demo of it and show people what you've been working on. So, um, highly recommend you apply by midnight tonight for the pitch comp. Good luck. I'm one of the judges, but also Google Gemini is one of the judges, and it's a pretty hard grader. So make your pitch good, but apply by midnight tonight and see if you get one of the last pitch slots. This is always super fun now that we've started doing this every year. Okay, a couple other things here. So we do these summits. I'll, I'll touch on maybe just CRO because they all follow the same format, but we have these by function summits daily. So Tuesday's is the CRO and CEO Summit. Wednesday is the CCO/FEE Summit, and then Thursday is the CMO Summit. Tuesday summit with the CRO and CEO Summit also has poker night. So poker is open if you wanna just come play poker. That's gonna be after content. You can just show up to the summit stage. That's where poker will be. You can come play poker, come network with folks, or some people are super serious about poker. You can just come play poker. You do have to apply for CRO Summit even if you have a ticket, and it's not a VIP pass. So if you have a ticket that's like a Startup Pass or Big Co-Team Pass and you're looking at this and you, you kind of wanna come to some of the stuff that's on Tuesday or CRO Summit, then you do need to apply. You will get notified if you get accepted. If you don't get accepted and you apply, we do have some standby availability, but it's based on capacity. So if we have room, we'll let a few standbys in. I like not having an express pass at like Disneyland. We do standby as we can. I know last year we let a few folks in on the standby, but I highly recommend applying so that if you do get in, then, then you're in basically the fast lane for the CRO Summit. So that one will be fun. There's two other ones you guys can also look at here if that more so applies to you. Okay, other things is the parties. So every year— this one was today actually. So every year there's a lot of like what we call like third party kind of like official, semi-official, unofficial parties that go on at SASTRA. You can email it to yourself so that you get the whole thing. I'm going to do that real quick just for funsies. Everybody has my email, so that's not really a giveaway there. But you can email the party list to yourself. We've added to this, I can't even tell you how many times a day right now. There are so many parties and things we keep learning about and hearing about. If you're one of the people hosting the parties, you can submit yours if you go all the way down to the end. It's all the way down at the end, but if you keep going, you can submit yours here and then see if we admit it here. But yeah, there's a lot of parties. Actually, there's more than one. I looked at it yesterday. So yeah, lots of parties, lots of things going on. If you're still thinking about doing a party, this is also good G2s and learnings of like what other people are doing, kind of how they're formatting it. There's a lot going on. A lot of, a lot of semi-official slash official slash unofficial parties and then off-book parties happening next week. But yeah, this is the party guide. I know some people are really into going to all the different parties to collect swag and stuff or just meet different folks. So yeah, the party guide is here. OK, back to our attendee portal real quick. Talked about security, mobile app, FAQs. Yeah. Again, I think we've gone through most of this, but you can check in anywhere. Basically, basically get here, fly safe, you know, pack appropriately, download the app. I think that's the biggest thing to do if you haven't done so yet. Everything else is hopefully self-explanatory. And then yeah, if you can, I would pick some sessions. You can use these tabs here that we kind of broken out to make it easier for you. So you can do things like the most popular sessions. You can also see what new— we literally added like 20 or so things just yesterday. So it's— we are still adding. I know it sounds crazy. We are still adding new things to the agenda as we get closer and closer and folks want to do some last-minute things. So there's some more stuff there for you guys to reserve your seat on. There's all the Vibe Coding classes that you could do too. You don't have to go to all of them. Some of them repeat, but you know, they're still good to do. The MeetWits are really interesting. So a lot of the CEOs of companies will be here. They can help answer. I was like, what do I use a meet with for? I'm like, dude, ask your question, learn from them, talk to them if they're a stage above you, talk to the CEO if you're thinking about buying this product. Like if you're thinking about buying like a Lightfield or an Oracel and you're like, oh, you know, I'll go straight to the source. Vercel's head of startups is gonna be there. I'm like, dude, Austin's awesome. Like he knows a lot about everything and go-to-market. Like that dude's gonna, I think he's gonna be there. Probably more than, you know, the 30 minutes he's supposed to be there in the booth, but you can ask him a lot of questions. And so there's really great folks like this where you could specifically go to their booth and meet them and, and actually learn a lot from these, these resources that will be here. Okay, with that, happy to answer any questions. I know I just blew through that quickly and there's a lot going on, but hopefully, you know, if you use this attendee portal, Or if you've got folks coming with you as well, this recording will be on our YouTube page. We'll add it to this, but you can also just use this Know Before You Go as like a handy guide of everything you need to know before you come to Zaster next week. Ready? Cool. Any other questions you can before Monday, you know, email events@zasterank.com. Once you get here, just come. Even if you just come ask a question, get your badge on Monday, that's totally fine. People do that. Instructions we went through, dress code, it's business casual. Just so folks know, again, we recommend comfy shoes and layers just because it's the Bay Area, sunglasses because you might be outside. I think there's still room at the DoubleTree if you're still looking for a hotel. The other one is sold out. You can save this to your phone. It's just sashareno.com/attendeeportal. We're not going to take it down during. You can access the parties here. But yeah, I would say biggest takeaways are download the app, make sure you can and get your check-in code before you get here. It'll make it super easy. Make sure you bring an ID, pack appropriately for coming to CASTER, you know, maybe save the addresses for the main entrance in your phone. It's 1346 Saratoga Drive, San Mateo. There you go. And book some networking meetings if you can beforehand and like just, you know, maybe register for a few sessions if you want to plan your agenda a little bit more carefully throughout the days. There'll be coffee, there'll be food trucks, cold brews, everything you need pretty much will be here. Come, have fun. I know folks are getting really excited. Our attendance is going to be our record attendance for the last few years, so it'll be a lot of fun. I know there's a lot of people coming, a lot of really great companies you guys can talk to and learn from. Just get here already, why don't you? We will see you guys either Monday or Tuesday. I'll show you how to deploy an agent on Tuesday. Um, so will Jason. So that'll be a super fun kickoff, but there's other sessions you can go to too if you're tired of hearing from us. Um, and we will see you guys very soon.
