Stephanie Scott shared thisAs a new mom, the last thing I want is to experience my daughter's first milestones through a viewfinder. When she tried her first croissant on vacation, I knew I wanted to capture it, though I didn't predict her waving it around, hugging it, and getting crumbs everywhere. 🥐✨ Normally, I’d frantically switch between photo and video mode. Instead, I just hit record with Magic Capture on Pixel 11 Pro. Magic Capture is designed to make life simpler by eliminating that trade-off. Powered by Video Boost, HDR+, Top Shot, and Gemini, it analyzes 400 frames in real time to automatically deliver both smooth video and peak-quality HDR+ photos from a single take. That powerful tech stack makes capturing chaotic kids, pets, or live events feel effortless. I got to be fully present for the croissant incident, and now I have pristine photos and a video saved. I can’t wait for you to try Magic Capture on Pixel 11 Pro and spend more time in the moment! P.S. And because toddlers have zero chill, the scratch-resistant screen means I don't panic when she reaches for the phone mid-record! 📱 #Pixel11 #MadebyGoogle #ProductManagement #WorkingMoms

Stephanie Scott shared thisJuggling a baby while helping build the next Pixel phone means my mental load is always at capacity! Here are two new Pixel features I’ve been relying on to keep my day on track lately: 💬 Rambler: It lets me speak freely in a mix of English and French, with messy thoughts, filler words, and all. Then, it cleanly turns my rambles into a polished, organized message. 🏷️ Google Pixel Tag: Keys, diaper bag, stroller, wallet. They’ve all got a Pixel Tag attached now, so I’m no longer tearing the house apart every time we try to get out the door. Fellow parents, how are you saving time and staying organized these days? Give me your best tips! #MadebyGoogle #Pixel11 #ProductManagement #WorkingMoms

Stephanie Scott liked thisStephanie Scott liked thisIn 1997, Jerry Seinfeld turned down $110 million for one more season of his eponymous sitcom. In the decades since, observers have framed the decision as one of artistic integrity: “going out on top” triumphing over cold business logic. It’s a nice characterization: a rare and laudable example of a creator choosing art above money. However, it’s wrong. It was the correct choice for both art and money. On its latest episode, “Acquired” explores how it was this exact decision that contributes to “Seinfeld’s” astonishing relevance today, three decades after it aired.

Stephanie Scott liked thisThis week, I had the privilege to speak at HCIC in Orlando about one of my favorite topics: how healthcare marketers can protect patient privacy and still measure what works. It was an honor joining the stage with Vanessa Hill and Mariia Derhachova (Beth Israel Lahey Health) to present "New Rules of Privacy-First Marketing." They are the pros, as they've done the work that many health systems are still figuring out how to start, and they were generous in sharing best practices. We walked through six new rules of privacy-first marketing: 1/ Make sure your marketing tools are built for privacy first 2/ Regularly audit what’s running on your site 3/ Review and update consent tools on a regular cadence 4/ Include legal at every stage 5/ Consolidate tools under one BAA where possible 6/ Build privacy into your culture We even talked about the dreams we've all had about cookies and tracking scripts and pixels… Thank you to everyone who came to the session, stopped by the booth, or joined us afterwards. And a huge thank you to Sophia Zey, Tu Nguyen, Phil Knight, Rob Gerdon, Adam Putterman and our whole team for making the week run so smoothly. You are the best! Want the slides on privacy-first marketing? DM me :)

Stephanie Scott liked thisStephanie Scott liked thisImproving cardiovascular health in women is an urgent public health priority. Persistent gaps remain in awareness, prevention, and management of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in women. Only 41% of women identify heart disease as the leading cause of death. CVD accounts for >400,000 deaths among US women in 2024, which is more than breast cancer, lung cancer, and chronic lung disease combined. The Advisory describes the current landscape and proposes a novel infrastructure to support expansion of dedicated Comprehensive Centers of Excellence (CCoE) for Women's Cardiovascular Care: interdisciplinary care models built on four interdisciplinary pillars: clinical care, education and training, research, and community partnerships. Integrated pathways spanning disciplines can reduce fragmentation, enable earlier risk identification, and expand women's representation in clinical research. American Heart Association, American Academy of Pediatrics, American College of Obstetricians & Gynecologists, and the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine jointly approve this shared model. 📷 Examples of women’s cardiovascular health education topics across medical education and training.

Stephanie Scott liked thisStephanie Scott liked thisThe 90% gross margin era is over. AI companies need a new way to pitch their economics: For years, investors got used to SaaS companies with 80-90% gross margins. AI changed that. In AI, the cost of serving a customer is much higher. Every query runs through a foundation model, and that cost sits in COGS. If you’re using frontier models, your gross margin could be 40%, close to zero, or negative. For me, a low margin doesn't mean a bad business. Frankly, a negative one doesn't necessarily either (though it is really painful). What I care about is whether the margin is going up, and why. Two trends should be pushing it up: the industry's and your company's. The first is the industry's. Cost per token of the same intelligence has fallen roughly 98%+ in 18 months. And as companies move from selling a tool to selling an outcome, they capture more of the value they create and their price goes up. Both of those bring gross margin up as the company matures. The second is your company's. Investors need to see the same thing happening inside your business. Your blended gross margin doesn’t show that. Breaking it out two ways does: 1. Gross margin by customer. Ideally, you can show that customers who went live a year ago have much higher margins than customers still being implemented. Once a customer is live, you've already paid for the implementation work, so the margin on that account goes up. 2. Gross margin by pricing cohort. If you've changed your pricing, ideally you can show that customers on the new model have higher margins than those on the old one, and that the gap keeps widening. For example, customers on your original seat-based pricing might be low margin, while customers on usage-based pricing are higher margin and still climbing. Chart the two groups as separate lines. The story you want to be able to tell is pretty simple: customers that are fully implemented have strong margins, customers still in implementation don't, and the new pricing is materially better than the old pricing. That is a far stronger answer than a blended number with a promise that “margins will improve.”

Stephanie Scott liked thisStephanie Scott liked thisI LOVE my ŌURA Ring, but have you ever been in full stealth mode trying to sneak out of your toddler’s room after FINALLY getting them to sleep… And suddenly your ring decides it’s time to go full E.T. phone home, shooting green lights out of your finger? 👽 So naturally, your toddler reaches out to grab the mysterious glowing object. Mission failed. ŌURA, I love you, but we need to talk about your timing. Anyways, I see you, parents! May your coffee be strong this morning. ☕ (Clearly an edited GIF for a fun reenactment of what my toddler probably saw.)

Tesla releases detailed safety report after Waymo co-CEO called for more data Most founders think transparency is optional. It's not. Here's what just happened: Waymo's co-CEO stood on stage at TechCrunch Disrupt and called out competitors for hiding their safety data. She didn't name Tesla. She didn't have to. Everyone knew who she meant. A few weeks later? Tesla released the most detailed safety report they've ever published. 5 million miles between major collisions using FSD. 699,000 miles for regular drivers. That's 7x safer. Here's the problem you're facing: Your competitor is telling a story about your industry. They're setting the standard for transparency. They're defining what "responsible" looks like. They're making you look like you're hiding something. Even if you're not. → In PR, this is called losing control of the narrative. The best way to respond when a competitor attacks? Instead of playing defense, own a different metric entirely. Here's what Waymo did brilliantly: They made transparency the competitive weapon. Not better technology. Not lower prices. Not faster deployment. Transparency. And it worked. Because now every article about Tesla's data mentions that Waymo called for it publicly. ✅ Define the standards before your competitors do ✅ Make transparency your competitive advantage ✅ Force competitors to respond on your terms ✅ Turn data releases into PR moments Not: ❌ Waiting until you're called out ❌ Releasing data reactively ❌ Letting competitors set the narrative ❌ Assuming your product speaks for itself Tesla's numbers are impressive. But Waymo already won the PR battle by being first to demand transparency. Your competitors aren't just building better products. They're building narratives that force you to respond. PS: Are you setting the transparency standards in your industry?

Sad to see this happening after all the innovation iRobot led. This unfortunately highlights how important it is to have a well developed Supply Chain strategy that offers flexibility and resiliency. I'm not saying iRobot lacked this, but events like this and recent geopolitical issues certainly highlight that companies need to re-think the prior assumption that you can succeed by designing in the US and making in China. Re-assessing this and mapping out a new strategy for the future should be an important priority for manufacturing companies.

Headed to AI Infra Summit in Santa Clara, Sept. 15–17. I’m especially interested in meeting the people working where AI meets the physical world — product engineering, data-center infrastructure, robotics, manufacturing, supplier engineering, and strategic sourcing. At FES, we’re building Digital FAE™ agents that capture the application knowledge buried inside veteran engineers and suppliers, then make it usable at the point of design — from prints and part matching to warnings, samples, and faster engineering decisions. The part I’m most interested in discussing at the show: Where are engineers still losing time because the answer lives in one person’s head, one supplier’s inbox, or 400 pages of catalogs? If you’re working on AI factories, physical AI, product engineering, robotics, infrastructure, or supplier digitization, I’d enjoy comparing notes while we’re there. #AIInfraSummit #PhysicalAI #EngineeringAI #Manufacturing #DataCenters #Robotics #DigitalFAE

The median Senior SWE at Waymo earns nearly double what the same role at Tesla pays. Senior SWE pay in the automotive industry varies dramatically, and it often comes down to how a company views engineering: as a cost or an investment. Automotive tech sits at the juncture of both software and hardware, and you can see which side a company leans toward just by looking at its pay practices. Companies that start from a software-first ethos tend to extend that compensation philosophy into hardware roles. Those rooted in traditional manufacturing, on the other hand, show more constrained bands. In many ways, how a company began, software or hardware, still defines how it pays, builds, and competes today. We’re bringing back the Senior SWE box-plots, this time for automotive tech, built from recent offer data points in the US. Some insights from the data: Waymo leads the pack with a median of $420K (p25: $380K, p75: $516K). Its 25th percentile clears the 75th at Tesla, Lucid, GM, Zoox, and Rivian, showing clear, consistent top-of-market positioning for autonomous engineering talent. Zoox ($304K) and GM ($302K) cluster in the low-$300Ks with moderate IQRs, implying more standardized offer bands. Tesla shows a lower center (median $213K, p75 $290K) but a long upper tail (max ~$700K), suggesting a mix of outlier grants by department and some volatility based on the stock and refresh grants. Even within the same niche, compensation isn’t just about market value. It’s about philosophy. Some companies reward stability, others risk. And in automotive, that split often mirrors the tech itself: established automakers vs. autonomous pioneers. You can run these reports and visualize distributions like this directly in our Benchmark Tool. Built for compensation and total rewards teams who want to stay ahead of the market. From setting bands to tracking competitor shifts in real-time, our tools help you make data-driven decisions with confidence: https://lnkd.in/gpqPZzcA What category of companies should we chart next? And which range here surprised you most?
