Priyanka Rotti — Director of Engineering
Most enterprises don't fail at AI because of the model. They fail in the gap between pilot and production — where guardrails break down, evaluation frameworks don't exist, and nobody budgeted for what running an agent at enterprise scale actually costs.I've lived in that gap for the last two years. I've managed 25+ AI startups through enterprise partnerships long enough to know exactly which ones survive it: the ones with a defensible moat, enterprise-grade product maturity, and the contract infrastructure to back it up. I've driven $250M in partner-led revenue doing this. I advise founders on what enterprises actually buy and why. I've deployed agentic AI in regulated environments where a misbehaving agent isn't just a product problem — it can escalate into legal one. I prepare quarterly briefings for Boards making long-term AI infrastructure investments. And I write Billion Parameter Bill, a newsletter about what enterprise AI actually costs to run — because that conversation needs to happen more honestly than it currently does. What genuinely energizes me is meeting founders, builders and innovators at the edge of what's possible. The ecosystem is the best real-time indicator of where innovation is headed and what problems enterprises are willing to pay to solve. That intersection — between what's being built and what enterprises actually need — is where I work best. If you're building or deploying AI infrastructure or AI agents at enterprise scale, I'd like to know you
