When WorkOS approached us about sponsoring their [Enterprise Ready Conference](https://enterprise-ready.com/), we jumped at the chance. The one-day event here in San Francisco this week was a great opportunity not only to showcase Nuon, but to evangelize BYOC to the greater tech community. Here’s how it went.

## We Gave a Live Demo

Our first conference demo in the books. Jon Morehouse, our founder and CEO, gave a stellar demo that focused on the brand new features we’re excited to be adding to our day-2 maintenance suite: Approvals, Drift Detection, and Break Glass.

- **Approvals**: This allows a user to preview changes to their application before they land in your customer’s account, offering peace of mind that the changes are safe to ship.

- **Drift Detection**: If a customer modifies or changes your application, Nuon will automatically alert you that drift has occurred.

- **Break Glass**: If things ever go wrong, you can securely and safely request permissions within a customer account. The customer can then temporarily approve them and enable actions to run in their account, mitigating the issues.

## What We Learned

With this being our first large conference, our goal was less about making sure everything was perfect and more about crowdsourcing best practices from industry leaders. As the day progressed, we found ourselves creating a runbook of new ideas and formats that we’ll be trying out at our next conference.

Bring the most agile people on your team to the conference. As with anything in startup life, even if you’re 100% prepared for a project, things can and will go wrong. That’s why those who are cracked enough to both fight fires in the background and shake a million hands at the booth are the best candidates for your conference team.

Live-Tweet the conference and have your team write as many social posts as they can. Conferences are a great opportunity to cast an incredibly wide net on your socials and maximize your reach.

Don’t be afraid to grab an empty table and let the networking come to you. Our VP of Revenue, Mark Milligan, and I both grabbed spots at separate empty tables in the cafe area, and within five minutes, we both found ourselves surrounded by 6–7 new people we’d never met before. 

Mark and I were able to gather multiple new leads — it was a lot easier to connect with people while sitting at the same table than standing on opposite sides of an expo booth.

## Who We Heard From

One of the really cool things about WorkOS’s Enterprise Ready Conference were all the lightning demos. Below are some that really stood out to us.

![The first of three demos shwoing code and their dashboard behind them on the screen](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/3jtsca34/production/70e4373a1822e9a302c4e0759eacb86d51dc6a31-2417x1507.jpg?w=1200)

[Metronome](https://metronome.com/): Cosmo Wolfe, Founding Engineer and now CTO of Metronome, walked us through a five-minute download of how their platform is rethinking monetization. Rather than just focusing on one part of the billing “stack,” Metronome empowers the user to gauge their full billing stack, creating an end-to-end monetization model with real-time observability into rate cards and revenue recognition.

[Augment Code](https://www.augmentcode.com/): We then heard from Chris Kelly, who works on the product team at Augment Code. He focused on why context is everything for AI agents and how their platform, Augment, features an industry-leading context engine, making it one of the strongest AI software development platforms.

Their platform also focuses heavily on improving users' prompts as an early pre-processing step to enhance quality and generate more context-aware results.

[Sentry](https://sentry.io/welcome/): While most people reading this blog will know what Sentry is, the leading application monitoring tool, David Cramer, Sentry’s Co-Founder, gave an incredibly rad demo of an unreleased project they’ve been dogfooding in-house.

The main focus was on using an LLM to identify bugs and their root causes, then using an agent to generate PRs to fix the problem in real time.

## See You at the Next One

This was an amazing event for the team at the conference and for our company as a whole. We don’t have an exact roadmap yet for where we’re going on the conference circuit, but with a successful ERC behind us, we’re excited to attend more. We’ve even floated the idea of hosting our own Bring Your Own Cloud conference.
