Vivek Joshi — Founder
I’ve spent my career building AI/ML systems that survive contact with reality. Previously, I co-founded Lightup (backed by a16z) and later led Product & GTM at Granica, deploying AI systems into production at enterprises including McDonald’s, Gap, Skechers, AMD, and Elevance Health. The pattern is clear: we spent the last decade perfecting Systems of Record (data). The next decade will be defined by Systems of Action (execution). I’m currently building in stealth at the AI execution layer, infrastructure that converts repeatable human workflows into governed systems that safely run in production.
Stackforce AI infers this person is a SaaS and AI infrastructure expert with a focus on enterprise solutions.
