[00:01:41] S7: To be honest, like, our first product looks really rough. We actually only used two weeks. One day, we have over, like, 100 people just flow in this product. Our users actually just, you know, like, doubled. There is huge increase in the user and there's huge increase in the revenue. That is a time we know, okay, we hit something right. We have over 10,000,000 downloads in a year, and we now have over 10,000,000 annualized revenue within a year. It's not just about fantastic UI, UX, or how you're marketing it. It's more like what result users get. You don't need to wait for the product to be perfect to launch it. Most of the time in the AI era, things will change every day. If you wait too long, you may never be able to launch a product. So you just need to launch it, develop it, learn from it at the same time. Hi, I'm Ella. I'm the founder and the CEO of Creati AI. Creati is the agentic AI to augment your marketing video at scale. Just drop one product image and Creati write your script, shoot your video and even do the cross processing for your marketing video without the need of full media crew. Creati is growing pretty fast. We have over 10,000,000 downloads in a year, and we now have over 10,000,000 annualized revenue within a year, thanks to our network effect between the influencer and the brands. I started my career as actually a hardware engineer at Apple. We are building the first generation of AirPods. We don't even know what product people actually need. So we invite a lot of users to our small interview room, we ask them a lot of questions like, what do you need actually for the AirPods? What do actually have the pinpoints for, things like that. At Apple, when we conduct the interviews instead of just doing online surveys, we actually more prefer to invite the users to the interview room and conduct like face to face interviews, right? When you ask people to fill out a survey online, people most of time they just, you know, click the first one, whatever they see there, right? Because they want to just jump to the end. No one really want to get their feedback. So you may get the wrong answers. And another more important thing actually is when you are talking to users face to face, you actually get more than what you want to ask. Right?

Like people, they always have some assumption that, okay, maybe user need a, b, and c, but actually user don't care about them like at all. Right? Like they only care about what they care about, like d, but you don't have that on your survey, so you'll get the wrong answer. That's a reason actually Apple prefer to have face to face user interview when they are building a new product. And one important thing we learn at Apple is, you know, you really need to understand people's pain points. You need to really know why people need it when you are building it. We have our, like, a lot of fantastic ideas or imagination, but those are not solving the pain points of real customers, and that's not what we want. Right? So meeting people or knowing people's pain points actually is the first step when you need to create a great product. The AirPods project is like... It's amazing experience for me. Many people said I should stay there for longer. But the thing is that I always pursue for building something new or building something I think I feel most excited for. When I was a child, I found I get information much easier when I get it in the form of video instead of long text or blog posts or things like that. So it is always my dream that in the childhood that if one day we could turn a lot of communication, the learning, the information gathering just in the video format, that will be really
