Dan Lewis — Co-Founder

Every organization wants to realize the potential of AI for their business. We build the underlying AI technology platforms and the agent/workflow builder tools that can run at any scale. In some cases the innovation comes from HR, finance, operations, sales, legal and more working with IT to roll out a company-wide solution. Other times one individual wants to use AI or build an agent for themselves. The underlying AI models, orchestration, prompt/knowledge, connectors/MCP/A2A, security, governance, evals, analytics, etc. are all baked into our platform so its fast and accessible. The agents built on our system are used by 1000s of companies and millions of times per week. I'm excited to be building this system for Microsoft...if you're interested lmk. Beyond Microsoft, I spent over a decade working on startups, including founding and scaling up Convoy. If you're a founder or involved in the future of work or AI, feel free to reach out if I can help. I get energy from doing this, so it isn't a burden if you ask. I'm best at thinking about how to pitch and sell, product systems/strategy, UX, and all the things on the founder/CEO journey. If you're working on marketplaces, venture/angel investing, machine learning/AI, e-commerce, the supply chain, robotics, or enterprise software and services, I might be able to help!
