I sometimes get asked what makes Knowledge Graphs different to just using lots of MCP integrations. In the image below is a good example of the issues with plugging MCP connectors straight into the agent. Context fetching is not very efficient with MCP connectors. You retrieve a lot of context that isn't needed and at the same time also miss a lot of context which is needed with each call. This gets worse when lots of MCP connectors need to be used simultaneously for fetching context. This means that the output quality could be higher and the token spend could be lower. A Knowledge Graph enables this!

"I hope he hasn’t lost any of his novel ideas for the AI Brain." …ok, I was genuinely worried about Fergus McKenzie-Wilson when I heard he got injured. One thing about him: he's unusually good at coming up with novel ideas for solving big problems. For the past 6 months we've been building the "AI Brain" - a knowledge layer for any enterprise. It ingests information from a plethora of data sources and transforms it into a unified data layer for AI agents to easily traverse. From there we can build any sort of custom workflow one might desire! As Employee #1 and a founding engineer, I like that I can influence all aspects of the codebase. I can also make an impact on product, design, and infrastructure decisions that drive value for our first users. I'm glad Ferg is recovering fast. His ideas have shaped a lot of the AI Brain, and we're not done needing them yet!

Maybe your next great hire isn’t sitting in a hiring pipeline at all. Yunsu and I became friends over poker. Everyone else at the table was locked in, doing mental maths, stone-faced, completely serious. Yunsu and I were making silly bets and having fun. Neither of us was really trying that hard to win. Ironically, I think that’s exactly why we did. We ended up taking the table over investors from Sequoia Capital, Chapter One, and Plug and Play Tech Center. I don’t think we realised how much we needed Yunsu until she joined the team. She alone replaced an entire growth marketing agency we'd worked with for months. Jamesin Seidel, when's the next game? Maybe I’ll finally get a 60x return this time 🔥

I met Yunsu at a cafe about a year ago. Neither of us knew it would turn into this. From the moment I met her, it was pretty clear. Sharp, capable, great with people, and had already driven serious growth results for startups. She'd been adding real value to the Unicorn Mafia community too. She even went back to China to get herself to the top of the AI game. That kind of commitment to actually going and doing it is rare. So when we heard she was looking, there wasn't really a conversation about it. It was an instant realisation. "𝗪𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗬𝘂𝗻𝘀𝘂 𝗶𝗻." That was it. Since then? She's been executing faster than I ever thought possible. I'll think about mentioning something, and it's already done. The motivation, the passion, the vibes she brings to the office every day. It's been everything and more. I didn't know I was hiring for that, and now I can't imagine the team without it. Fair warning though. She's a pretty harsh negotiator. In the best possible way. You've been told. Not sure if that's the typical "How I met our Head of Growth" story, but all I know is that we're smashing it every day. If you want to work with people like Yunsu, we're hiring.

Can you be Employee #2 twice? Yes. I just joined 60x as Head of Growth. I met Charlie Cheesman and Fergus McKenzie-Wilson right after a cofounder divorce. All I needed at the time was a desk and a reset. I trust them because: 1. They have an eye for talent. I once thought "I'd hire Alex Choi if I could," and they'd already done it. 2. They built the Unicorn Mafia developer community and won multiple hackathons together. They're not done yet. 3. Ferg and I once took down a VC vs. Entrepreneurs poker table. We know how to come out on top and have fun doing it.     4. The contract negotiation told me everything. They respected my perspective and took it seriously. As a woman, I pay attention to that. 5. They're kind. I want to help good people succeed. My mum has always called me a bookworm. Working on knowledge graphs feels like the perfect continuation of my work at FGS Global. Still reminding the team to walk slower. Day one with Charlie: I fell and dropped my entire sushi lunch. If you’re a slow walker like me, we’re hiring.

9 out of 10 people wouldn’t spot this. This 60x founding engineer is so cracked that not everyone would even recognise what they're looking at. Before joining us, Alex Choi had already: • Launched 4 SaaS platforms • Launched 7 consumer apps • Won 6 hackathons He's a true end-to-end builder. Rare in a world where most people do one thing well. "No matter what we need Alex to do, he'll handle it." Literally. He's a gatekeeper against AI slop, a vibe-coding cleanup specialist with supercharged QA instincts. In just 6 months, he kept breaking his own record, Cursor-maxxing over $3,000/month, consistently. And how we met? Pretty romantic, actually. It started in Paris. We came together at the Louvre and won among 6,000 contestants at RAISE Summit, the world's largest AI hackathon. He built the WhatsApp agent. I built the orchestrator across all 6 agents. Roses are red. Violets are blue. 60x engineers meet through Unicorn Mafia. So should you.

I turned down a YC-backed startup to join a company founded by my hackathon teammates. The reason I chose 60x is simple: I back the founders. Charlie Cheesman, Fergus McKenzie-Wilson, and I won the RAISE Summit hackathon together the summer before. When they told me they had already bootstrapped to revenue, it was a no-brainer. Ferg is an exited founder. Charlie sold a business in only 20 hours. They have a track record of going from 0 to 1. And I believe in the vision: Enterprises have very different bottlenecks, and off-the-shelf products don't always solve them. Forward-deployed projects can often be the fastest way to unlock real value. We use an AI Brain as the base technology and can ship customised workflows in 60 hours. We’ve already won together, so I trust how we'll tackle whatever comes next. It's been a strong 6 months, and we're building with good vibes every single day! We're hiring. If you'd turn down a YC-backed offer for the right founders, you might be our kind of person.

Most enterprise AI fails because it lacks a map of your world. The simple solution: Knowledge Graphs. Right now, most AI systems use Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) which relies on Vector Similarity. It finds text that looks like your question but doesn't understand the meaning behind it. Ask an agent to "audit all contracts for Project X." Vector search finds the name "Project X." But it fails to connect the Project to the people, emails, and history that actually drive it. Moving your internal AI from "chat" to "execution" requires structured reasoning. A Knowledge Graph maps your people and processes as a web of logic. Without a graph, your agent is a fast reader with no memory. In the last few months, 60X has built the knowledge core for some of the largest FTSE 100 companies. We turn siloed data (SharePoint, Slack messages, OneDrive) into an interconnected graph. TLDR: Architect the foundation that lets your software think
