Our thinking about HubSpot, AI, & removing silo'ed data

We recently attended The Open Letter's "Building Global Tech from SA" event in Stellenbosch — a gathering of entrepreneurs, founders, and tech builders exploring how AI is fundamentally reshaping what it means to build software and scale businesses from South Africa. The lineup featured Adii Pienaar, co-founder of WooCommerce, and Renier Kriel, founder of The Open Letter and former developer. The conversation was sharp, practical, and deeply relevant to what we're seeing every day at MO Agency: the cost of building has collapsed, the barrier to entry has evaporated, and

The other group is asking a different question entirely: “Why does this article keep getting cited by ChatGPT?” That second question is where things start to get interesting. Because what we’re seeing now isn’t the death of SEO — it’s a shift in what matters most. First, let’s clear up the terminology mess Depending on who you ask, this new thing is
