Have you ever been on the phone to a company representative and thought “You know, if only this human on the other side of the call was instead a chatbot who would be even less receptive to my problems”?

The practice of DevRel is something that can vary hugely amongst those who engage in it, so it’s always fascinating to see how different companies approach DevRel. In this episode, we’re speaking to Liran Tal, director of developer advocacy at Snyk, about how his team makes use of DevRel.
