We really took the best part of 61 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 3: social media and create platforms and put them into one 62 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 3: new experience. So, you know, I grew up, you know, 63 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,279 Speaker 3: to date myself a little bit in like the MySpace 64 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 3: era where social media was much more social and fun, 65 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 3: and as did my business partner, and as we were 66 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 3: kind of like ideating like, oh, should we do something 67 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 3: in this space? You know, it really came down to 68 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 3: our own frustrations with you know, how the current state 69 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 3: of social media is meaning it. 70 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 4: To a lot of doom scrolling. 71 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 3: There's a lot of seeing content that you know, miners 72 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 3: shouldn't see or even we shouldn't see that. You know, 73 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 3: we don't know what's going to always be shown to us. 74 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 3: And you know, we wanted something fun. We wanted to 75 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 3: like see content from people we care about. We wanted 76 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 3: to you know, have that you know, surprise and delight 77 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 3: of discovery back into social media. We're eighteen and over, 78 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 3: so we do allow for topless content. So that's where 79 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 3: we've been dubbed, you know, the h social media. 80 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 4: But there's nothing fully new, there's nothing explicit. 81 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 3: You know, we take the stance that social media, especially 82 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 3: when monetizations involved, should be for adults. 83 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: I love that you just mentioned MySpace, and I'm also 84 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 1: I guess going to date myself because I loved MySpace. 85 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: I was like the girl that like wrote poems on 86 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: MySpace and of course like Emo Laurie like I had. 87 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 4: I just it was. 88 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 2: Such a cool community. 89 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: But it's actually MySpace predated Facebook and all. Just like 90 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 1: it was really kind of how we grew up with 91 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: social media. It felt really different when I first got 92 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 1: into social media. It just felt like this was really 93 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: interesting and it was cool and it brought you closer 94 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: with your friends, and it felt like a little bit 95 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: punk rock. It just felt like a different time and 96 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 1: that was like, God, I feel so old saying this, 97 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: but this was like fifteen, almost like twenty, like. 98 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 4: Early two thousand. 99 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, things were so different then. Online you had these 100 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 3: platforms just emerging before they've what you know, before what 101 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 3: they've evolved into now, which no one at the time, 102 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 3: what have ever guessed? 103 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, were you growing up?

Was it MySpace? 105 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 2: Like now you're like a tech CEO now, So growing up. 106 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: Was there something that was like your gateway? I guess 107 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 1: mine was like a TAMAGATCHI does that? 108 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 3: I was gonna say Nintendo sixty four, Okay, maybe no, 109 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 3: it's super Nintendo. 110 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 4: Really date myself, like. 111 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 3: You know, I just grew up on you know, different 112 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 3: video games, a game Boy. 113 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 4: I had an Original Game Boy. 114 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 3: I think there's something about new technology that I've always 115 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 3: just naturally gravitated towards. 116 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. Same. 117 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 1: I remember in college it was like I was one 118 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: of the first to get an iPhone and people are like, 119 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: that's so weird, what is that? And God, again, I 120 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: just feel like I'm like an old person talking to 121 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: someone at this moment, but like, but it was, there's 122 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: something about kind of new technology and something about you 123 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: that I've always thought was really interesting. And I know 124 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: this as your friend, but also as I was looking 125 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: through your history and really understanding it is like you 126 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: you are an edge person too, Like you like the 127 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 1: edges before they become the center. You before Violet, you 128 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: were the CEO of OnlyFans, so adult content. This kind 129 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: of felt like it was a bit on the edges. 130 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: Before that, it was cannabis. You were opening up a 131 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: cannabis cafe in Los Angeles. 132 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 2: Things that you know might be hard to explain to 133 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 2: mom and dad. 134 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 4: What was it? 135 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 2: What is it about the edges that interest you? 136 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 3: Well, you say edge, I say forefront. You know, being 137 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 3: on the forefront, that's new, what's interesting. You know, I 138 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 3: kind of naturally gravitate towards what's up and coming, what 139 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 3: might be considered a little bit taboo before it hits 140 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 3: much more of mainstream culture. 141 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 2: You know. 142 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 3: I I'm not sure where that comes from in terms of 143 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 3: if it's probably just a natural interest curiosity. Professionally, I've 144 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:56,679 Speaker 3: worked in a range of industries from fashion, CpG, tech, 145 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 3: and the common thread throughout everything is really just like, oh, 146 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 3: what's new, what's up and coming. I think there's something 147 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 3: very exciting about that and also having that kind of 148 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 3: eye or insight into what could that potentially be. And 149 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 3: while it's controversial to others it, you know, fast forward 150 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 3: a few years, it's much more mainstream and loses a 151 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 3: bit of that stigma to it. 152 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, And so going back, you were born 153 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: in Mumbai, you were raised in Virginia. 154 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 2: An only child, I am an holy child. Your parents 155 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 2: are immigrants. 156 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: I'm curious did their journey impact your career aspirations at all. 157 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 3: So, actually, I don't think I've talked about this publicly, 158 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 3: but I'm adopted from India. My father's Indiana and my 159 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 3: mom's American. But just grown up, I've obviously very pronounced 160 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 3: I like to say la accent. But you know, I 161 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 3: think having parents from a different background, and also, you know, 162 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 3: most places is that I've lived like, there's not a 163 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 3: ton of diversity. Yeah, you know, so I think that 164 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 3: starts to shape your outlook. 165 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 4: On how you see things. 166 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 3: And now even in my adult life, I find like, oh, 167 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 3: I have so many more South Asian friends than I 168 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 3: ever did growing up, because there just weren't, you know, 169 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 3: various different types of people around. 170 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 4: Yeah. 171 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: And I mean especially it's so funny because I think 172 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: so many journalists, when you're like looking at this, call 173 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: your background as a taxio non traditional because it seems 174 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: as though, like so many of the people we see 175 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 1: in these roles in technology feel a little bit similar 176 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: or have similar backgrounds. But I do find it's really 177 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: interesting when you meet people who grew up in places 178 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: where they might not have felt like they always fit 179 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 1: or it felt like there was something that was always 180 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: the same. I remember growing up the only Jewish girl 181 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: a very Christian, conservative. 182 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 2: Southern school where there was a lack of diversity. 183 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: My whole career has been spent saying, Okay, how do 184 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 1: we get more people involved, or that perspective is so 185 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: much more interesting, or that it feels like it's like 186 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 1: a frustration that actually ended up being a fuel to 187 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: some degree for you. 188 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 4: I completely agree. 189 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,680 Speaker 3: I mean, I remember when I was turning thirteen and 190 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 3: my birthday of party was a whole party, and I 191 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 3: lived in a you know, very predominantly Jewish area and 192 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 3: went to nothing but bar batmans, was every weekend. 193 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 4: I was like, my birthday really stucks. 194 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 2: That's really funny. 195 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: Well I grew up where no one had gone to 196 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: a bar movements, Well I was the only bat mits. 197 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: When they came to they had no idea what it was. 198 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 1: So that's that's really interesting, Okay. 199 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 2: And so. 200 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: You end up you tell me, let's start with a 201 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: cannabis cafe. 202 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:40,439 Speaker 2: Okay. 203 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: So before joining only Fans, you helped launch one of 204 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: Los Angeles's first cannabis cafes. I mean, this is post legalization, 205 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: but I'm sure at the time the camp this industry 206 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: was heavily regulated. This probably wasn't the easiest of things. 207 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: What did you learn from that experience? How'd you get 208 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 1: into that? 209 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 3: So I got into it working for with a and 210 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 3: in the sector, and they were opening a establishment in 211 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 3: West Hollywood which was very friendly to cannabis overall. And 212 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 3: this was like twenty eighteen twenty nineteen at the time, 213 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 3: so you know, there were dispensaries all over LA the 214 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 3: way that you see liquor stores a lot of places. 215 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 4: In the US. 216 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: So you know, there were tons of these kind of 217 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 3: like cool brands popping up. And also to give context 218 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 3: my background, I worked with Red Bull before being in cannabis. 219 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 3: That's kind of again like a little edgy being on 220 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 3: the forefront. And with that business there's a lot of 221 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 3: regulation you must be twenty one to consume. Also a 222 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 3: lot of misconceptions like what where you know, people think like, oh, 223 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 3: this is you know, is gonna cause to have a 224 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 3: lot of like bad actors around, or you know, there's 225 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 3: you know, a certain reputation with you know, we all 226 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 3: grew up with movies about the stoner in high school. 227 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 3: But really there's tons of people where whether it's a 228 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 3: medicinal value, recreation, provide some sort of you know, just 229 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 3: like anxiety relief, Like people are consuming it all the time, 230 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 3: like you've all been to concerts, Like it's not it's 231 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 3: not that big of a deal. 232 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, And I imagine opening this cafe. 233 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:16,439 Speaker 2: What did you learn? 234 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: What did you learn about about the industry, What did 235 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: you learn about people? 236 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 3: We're all really similar and I will say, you know, 237 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 3: there was something special about that place. 238 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 4: It's no longer around. 239 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 3: It shut down during COVID can't have in person establishments, 240 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 3: even though cannabis was an essential business at the time, 241 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 3: But there is something special where you're seeing especially in 242 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 3: West Hollywood, a lot of people know it, you know 243 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 3: for being you know, such a leader in the gay 244 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 3: culture and community. But there's also a lot of elderly 245 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 3: people there and they didn't have anywhere to go. So 246 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 3: you'd have these locals come over and just you know, 247 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 3: want to sit have a coffee and a joint.

The CEO stepped 319 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: down some controversy the platform had said it would ban 320 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: explicit content and a backtrack, and Tim stepped down, You 321 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 1: stepped up. 322 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 2: What was going through your mind when you got the 323 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 2: call that you would be CEO? 324 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 3: You know, it's it's nice to be and I'm you know, 325 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 3: forever grateful for being just acknowledged for the work that 326 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 3: I had done and continue to like support for the business. 327 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 3: And that's kind of that instance where it's like, oh, 328 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 3: you know, I didn't realize it at the time, but 329 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 3: I was the one chiming in with you know, oh, 330 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 3: let's work with this, let's have this partnership let's do this, 331 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 3: or you know, there's different emails and scenarios where I'm 332 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 3: stepping in and sharing you know, opinions, ideas on what 333 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 3: to do, and also coming into the business so passionately 334 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 3: of like, oh this is you know a true disruptor. 335 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 3: Is what led to you know, taking the reins when 336 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 3: Tim stepped down, and then that's when I really doubled 337 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 3: down on platform safety, transparency, a lot of those kind 338 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 3: of core trust in safety fundamentals, which you know when 339 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 3: we get into Violet, that's really what impacted a lot 340 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 3: of the foundations of the platform I co founded. 341 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 2: Was there a learning curve at all? 342 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,920 Speaker 3: Definitely in a sense that a lot of people don't 343 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 3: know this but only Fans is a UK domiciled business, 344 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 3: so you know, there's a lot of public affairs learnings. 345 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 3: You know, we didn't grow up learning about the UK 346 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 3: government in the US. You know, you have the House 347 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 3: of Commons, House of Lords, like you know, I remember 348 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 3: looking at a list as like these sound like Harry 349 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 3: Potter characters. 350 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 4: Like I don't know what explain that because there just you. 351 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 3: Know, everyone goes by like you know, a much more 352 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 3: formal title. Yeah, you know, things are quite traditional there 353 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 3: and the biggest learning is seeing you know how the UK, 354 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 3: especially at the time, was much more on the forefront 355 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 3: of online safety, especially the age verification, and now that's 356 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 3: look at the rest of the world. It's caught on 357 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 3: in terms of these conversations around like oh, what are 358 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 3: miners being exposed to? Like how can we prevent that? 359 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 3: Should social media be for any on under sixteen or 360 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 3: over sixteen? 361 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 1: So it's really interesting because UK has been ahead, especially 362 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: with deep fake abuse and so many of these issues 363 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: surrounding online safety. 364 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 2: And it is interesting because. 365 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: During your time there, I saw this threat emerge, like 366 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: you wanted only fans to be known for more than 367 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 1: just adult content. This is like part of now what 368 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: you're doing at Violet, which we're going to get into. 369 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 1: Why do you think only fans didn't really make that leap? 370 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 1: Like what were you frustrated? Like what was that like 371 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: and with some of these priorities and how have you 372 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: kind of like taken that into Violet. 373 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 3: I feel like it's still, you know, known for a 374 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,120 Speaker 3: range of creators. You're kind of always seeing different news 375 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 3: articles of like, oh, this person's not only fans, this 376 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 3: person's doing that. So it's always been known for it, 377 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 3: but because it does allow for you know, content on 378 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 3: the spicier side. Yeah, it will you know, have a 379 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 3: bit of that reputation, which I think is good. That's 380 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 3: what gave it that kind of cool factor and continues 381 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:01,400 Speaker 3: to you know, keep it relevant the media. And then 382 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 3: looking at Violet, that started as really our own frustrations 383 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 3: of social media and the doom scrolling, the not seeing 384 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 3: content from your friends. But also we all have friends 385 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 3: that want to monetize. They don't have a following, they 386 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 3: don't know how, they don't know where to start, and 387 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 3: it's really quite intimidating, you know, looking at these other 388 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 3: platforms they don't know you know. 389 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 4: Oh how do I set up a profile? How do 390 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 4: I set up a page? 391 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,640 Speaker 3: And that's where it kind of clicked, like, oh wait, 392 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 3: we can take the best of social media, the best 393 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 3: of a creator platform in terms of the monetization tools, 394 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 3: and put them into one new experience. And that's where 395 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:44,880 Speaker 3: we really see Violet, you know, as its own lane 396 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 3: in the market. You know, there's nothing sitting between creator 397 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 3: platforms and social media for adults, so we really categorize 398 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 3: it as adult social media. 399 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like and so you left OnlyFans in twenty 400 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,959 Speaker 1: twenty three. Before we leave Only Fans, can you just 401 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,359 Speaker 1: like take me into the room. What was like the 402 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: craziest call or experience you had as the CEO of OnlyFans. 403 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,159 Speaker 3: I mean, there's a lot of funny conversations. And this 404 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 3: even happens now around like, Okay, what's getting moderated for content, 405 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 3: for example, Halloween costumes, so you can't have blood, but 406 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,360 Speaker 3: if it's in a like a costume setting, like, oh, 407 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 3: it's like learning about different context for things. 408 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 4: And then really and I feel like you'll relate to this. 409 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 3: It's just people's and this happens to this day still 410 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 3: where people can't believe like oh, that's your job or 411 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 3: you worked at that company. 412 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,360 Speaker 4: It's like, well, yes, yes I did. 413 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 3: Or there you know, there's many times, you know, I'll 414 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 3: get on calls and people aren't expecting, you know, an 415 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 3: executive to look the way that I do. Or many 416 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 3: times people think that I'm, which is a compliment, significantly 417 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 3: younger than I am, and I will have to voluntarily 418 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 3: give up my age or say I'm a lot older 419 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 3: than I look. 420 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 2: Oh that's so interesting. 421 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 1: Just like even like the misconception of like you get 422 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: on a call and someone doesn't realize Yeah, the only 423 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: fan CEO could be like. 424 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,159 Speaker 4: Like, who is this kid?

Was it time 429 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 2: to move on? What was it? 430 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 3: Kind of a combination where, you know, I felt like 431 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 3: it was time to move on. I had done so 432 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 3: many like amazing things there, accomplished a ton of goals, 433 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 3: growth experience, you know, I joke it's like an MBA 434 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 3: on steroids. And then it's like, Okay, how can I 435 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 3: take this experience and do something on my own? So 436 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 3: that's when I left. I launched an advisory Hoxton with 437 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 3: my co founder business partner in Kaylee, and we're both 438 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 3: very entrepreneurial. So in the back of our minds while 439 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,919 Speaker 3: we're working with a range of clients we had like 440 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 3: fintech luxury CpG, like, okay, well we want to start 441 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 3: a company. Our running joke was that every shady character 442 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 3: that you can imagine who had their idea for the 443 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 3: next like of would reach out to us. Only yeah 444 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 3: and then you know, we always shun them away, especially Kaylee, 445 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 3: but it happened so much and then it was kind 446 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,479 Speaker 3: of like I was always like, no, I'm not going 447 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 3: to go back into that sector. But it was really 448 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 3: just seeing like, oh, no, one's talking to this entire 449 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 3: white space of potential users, of people who want to 450 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 3: monetize don't know how, And then just look at the 451 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 3: frustrations like I hear from not just creators but our 452 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 3: friends or you know, other influencers talent where they're like, 453 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 3: I don't they're frustrated with the current state of social media. 454 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 3: They've plot towed on growth, they're not their content's not seen, 455 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 3: they're not being seen. So we kind of felt like, okay, 456 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 3: maybe there's something here well. 457 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,199 Speaker 1: And there's also just like this really interesting happening like 458 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: after chat GPT launches twenty twenty two. AI is nothing new, 459 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: but now it's mainstream to see. It happens so fast, 460 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 1: it happens so quickly, and all of a sudden, there 461 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 1: are all these conversations about consent online. I mean, I know, 462 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: for me, it's really near and dear. The rise of 463 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: sexually explicit deep fakes. A lot of these women in 464 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 1: public some more public than others who had their likeness 465 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: taken because now we're in this age where our most 466 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: intimate features, our voice, our face, our bodies. 467 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 2: Can be mimicked with AI. 468 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: And so now we're entering this era where consent online 469 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: really matters. 470 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:36,640 Speaker 2: And if someone wanted. 471 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 1: To create AI Laurie to do anything, they could, And 472 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: so I think it's really interesting to think about, well 473 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: you combine that moment with a lot of the stuff 474 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: and the frustration from creators, and also what could a 475 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: social media platform look like if it was built with 476 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: folks who have experience in the creator world, but who 477 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 1: are also women. And I think that kind of like 478 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 1: combination and those ingredients are kind of at the core 479 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 1: of Violet. It almost feels a little bit like an 480 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: offshoot of only fans, but very different in some capacities. 481 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 1: You've launched just a couple months ago, So what have 482 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:13,360 Speaker 1: you seen so far? 483 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 3: So we're still very new, but we have about ten 484 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 3: thousand users on the platform already.

Like how are they interacting with it, 512 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: what are people monetizing? 513 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 2: How it has it working? 514 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 3: So you're seeing a range of content.

The only difference between kind of 517 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 3: fans or users of the platform and creators is that 518 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 3: creators set up subscription tiers, meaning they can monetize their 519 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 3: content through premium VIP subscriptions, through pay per view content, 520 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 3: custom content that they're able to us upsell to their followers. 521 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 1: Let's talk about the AI integration. What is Violet doing 522 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 1: with AI that's unique? What are the decisions made to 523 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 1: get there? 524 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,360 Speaker 2: What will you do? What won't you do? 525 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 3: So for AI, we want creators have full control over 526 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 3: their digital twin, meaning that they upload eight to twelve 527 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,959 Speaker 3: images of themselves to be able to train it. You know, 528 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 3: they can put in create their own prompts. We have 529 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 3: pre selects if they're like not sure what they want 530 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 3: to write, and it's really streamlined the image creation process. 531 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 3: They own all of the AI images that are generated. 532 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 3: So after they generate an image, if they like it, 533 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 3: they can post it to their Violet profile. They could 534 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,360 Speaker 3: post it to their you know, VIP or premiums here 535 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 3: and upsell it, or they can download it and then 536 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 3: it will be watermarked with Violet AI too, and that 537 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 3: gives them like really a sense of control over their 538 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 3: likeness their IP.

So 585 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: many of these really successful AI companies and I look 586 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: at like character Ai, although albeit they didn't have the 587 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: correct cardrails with like and they also didn't have the 588 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 1: permissions like they had like Ai Nicki Minaj. But Ai 589 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,719 Speaker 1: Nicki Minaj was building out a world and having all 590 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 1: these crazy conversations with folks and getting millions and millions 591 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,040 Speaker 1: of chats, which kind of proves the point that people 592 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: know that it's not Nicki Minaj, but they are willing 593 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 1: to do it. The problem with character Ai is that 594 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 1: they didn't have permission from Nicki Minaj to be doing this. 595 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: And so my understanding from Violet is that you do 596 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 1: have permission and yeah. 597 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 3: We're not doing anything. It's actually the creator and the 598 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 3: talent who is like, oh, they've you know, taken decision 599 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 3: to train their Violet AI chat and they turn it on. 600 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 3: They're the ones creating all the images. We're actually not 601 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 3: doing anything. We're providing the tools for them. And there's 602 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 3: some creators that you know, they they don't you know, 603 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 3: use the AI tools as frequently and more so. They 604 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 3: like the just the user experience, the subscription tiers, and 605 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 3: there's somewhere like they're just cranking out those images and 606 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 3: I am like, and we're going to play with it, 607 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 3: like literally right now.

You know, 824 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:12,720 Speaker 1: this is like it feels like a little bit different 825 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,480 Speaker 1: over here, which I kind of like, it's a different 826 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 1: fact we're creative. 827 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:18,680 Speaker 4: It just kind of lets you express yourself. 828 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I think is so interesting about 829 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 1: this is it just feels it feels different than some 830 00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:27,279 Speaker 1: things I've seen, because it does feel like we are 831 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 1: entering a world where there's AI slop and there's just 832 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 1: you don't know what's real and what's not, and you know, 833 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:38,040 Speaker 1: you there's an inevitability of AI and social media, but 834 00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 1: it feels like things have gotten really crowded and really 835 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: busy and we're not sure where the incentives are and 836 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:45,440 Speaker 1: we're not sure what's behind it. So it certainly is 837 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 1: interesting to see what could the space open up to, 838 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:52,719 Speaker 1: what are new opportunities in the chaos? 839 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:54,520 Speaker 4: So I appreciate that. 840 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 3: And it's also just the transparency of knowing, like because 841 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:01,359 Speaker 3: this AI or not? Yeah, And ultimately like people don't care, 842 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 3: they just want to know. 843 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 1: Well, but it is interesting, Like I guess my question 844 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:07,840 Speaker 1: when we started out even with this podcast, was like, 845 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 1: are people going to care if it's AI? Like, are 846 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:14,120 Speaker 1: people going to want to interact with, you know, with 847 00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:16,799 Speaker 1: an AI version of someone in? The answer I think 848 00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 1: is resounding yes. And I guess the question is how 849 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,640 Speaker 1: do you build guardrails around that? And what are the 850 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:25,920 Speaker 1: ethical ways to do that? And for you, it sounds 851 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,720 Speaker 1: like so much of that comes down to consent and transparency. 852 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:34,400 Speaker 3: Absolutely consent, transparency and control for a creator around their image, 853 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:38,320 Speaker 3: how they use it. They have full you know, audience 854 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 3: over how how do I want to create AI? How 855 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:44,360 Speaker 3: do I want to show up digitally? So there's nothing 856 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,279 Speaker 3: that's not happening. If they don't like the image, then 857 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 3: they delete it or they generate a new one. 858 00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 1: So give me advice on how I can make money 859 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:54,040 Speaker 1: on Violet with how my AI Lori can go to 860 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 1: work and make money on Violet. 861 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 3: Well, let's get training and training your AI chat.

You know, you look at youth and 880 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 3: adult spaces colliding online, which is, you know, what's happening 881 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 3: on every major social platform, whereas we, you know, took 882 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 3: youth out of that equation and we are fully you know, 883 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,640 Speaker 3: in a adult social media platform, and that's never been 884 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,680 Speaker 3: in the vernacular before. It's been more like, oh, is 885 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:08,480 Speaker 3: it a creator platform, is it something spicy? 886 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,600 Speaker 4: What does adult actually mean? And that's again going. 887 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,239 Speaker 3: Back to like, oh, this is where the HBO of 888 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,880 Speaker 3: social media analogy comes in because we find people understand 889 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 3: what that means. It's something for the mass market, a 890 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 3: broader audience, but with boundaries and guard rails. 891 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 1: Why does this work personal to you? 892 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 3: You know, it's kind of exciting to just create something 893 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 3: new that hasn't been done, hasn't been out there. I 894 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 3: can't say like, oh, this is a space I thought 895 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 3: I was going to go back into or something I 896 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:41,840 Speaker 3: was like, you know, dreaming up for years and years, 897 00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:46,360 Speaker 3: but it really happened very organically with my co founder 898 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 3: Kaylee and just through our own conversations, and now it's 899 00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 3: just this true passion of like, wait, there needs to 900 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 3: be something different out there and or a platform led 901 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:57,280 Speaker 3: by women. 902 00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:58,840 Speaker 4: We stand for something. 903 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:02,280 Speaker 3: We're all about trans parency, putting all of our users 904 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:05,759 Speaker 3: in community first. And we've spent so much time on 905 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 3: the foundation of the platform in terms of the safety features. 906 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,319 Speaker 3: You know, who are we using for age verification, how 907 00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 3: are we going to moderate the content, how do we 908 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 3: prevent these bad actors. 909 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 4: From getting in? 910 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,080 Speaker 3: And you know, there's nothing that you know, we haven't 911 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:22,439 Speaker 3: thought about, you know, and that's just not you don't 912 00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:25,399 Speaker 3: really hear about that in businesses these days. It's like, oh, 913 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 3: how do we you know, make the quick dollar? How 914 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,279 Speaker 3: do we do this? It's like we actually focused on 915 00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:35,160 Speaker 3: the infrastructure, the business model. Then we're like, okay, of 916 00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,360 Speaker 3: course we're going to have the monetization features, but going further, 917 00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 3: like you know, we can have advertising in the future. 918 00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 3: We can you know, do different things and operate in 919 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,760 Speaker 3: a different way that just platforms haven't done before. 920 00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:50,920 Speaker 2: When you say we stand for something, what do you 921 00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 2: stand for? 922 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 3: We stand for being a safe, inclusive community online really 923 00:45:57,239 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 3: where anyone can be their authentic self without feeling like the. 924 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 4: Pressures, the trolls, the. 925 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 3: You know, just the anxieties you're getting on other platforms. 926 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:10,719 Speaker 3: That's what we don't want. We want someone to come 927 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:12,879 Speaker 3: to Violet and be like, oh, this is cool. This 928 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:16,320 Speaker 3: is where I can post this which I don't feel 929 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 3: comfortable sharing elsewhere. 930 00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:21,239 Speaker 1: So last question, where do you see Violet Like five 931 00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,280 Speaker 1: years from now, what does the future of this platform 932 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 1: look like? 933 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 3: Violet's going to be used by everyone? You know, we 934 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:31,720 Speaker 3: see this platform just kind of taking over in terms 935 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 3: of being used more internationally. You know, you look at 936 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:38,880 Speaker 3: the conversations around social media, and that's where we feel like, 937 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:42,160 Speaker 3: again we are on the forefront of something that you know, 938 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 3: we're thinking in a way that other businesses and platforms 939 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:49,520 Speaker 3: aren't thinking, where this is really much more about community, 940 00:46:49,680 --> 00:46:53,879 Speaker 3: social engagement, and then we're providing the tools for those 941 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:56,680 Speaker 3: who want to be able to monetize. So that's where 942 00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:59,839 Speaker 3: we just see this like really spreading and taking over. 943 00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:03,840 Speaker 2: Amazing. Well, you can find both me and Amy on 944 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 2: a Violet. 945 00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 1: I do answer all my messages all there, and she 946 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,280 Speaker 1: answers all of her messages if you have any feedback. 947 00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:12,759 Speaker 2: So awesome, Thank you so much, Thank you so much fun,
