AI vs. Employee Turnover: The Predictive HR Tool Small Businesses Need
Manage episode 491786095 series 3654798
In this episode of Founders Future, with host Ammar Elm, Jason Cavness reveals how his military background led to creating CavnessHR—an AI-powered HR platform for small businesses that can't afford full-time HR staff. The retired Army officer shares his unconventional startup journey, from not knowing what LinkedIn was to pivoting from failed consulting attempts, and how walking into Seattle med spas uncovered his niche. With 20 early customers (whose startups later folded), Jason breaks down his current MVP testing phase and ambitious plans to compete with ADP by predicting employee attrition through AI signal processing.
Jason gets real about the challenges of being a non-technical founder raising funds in today's tough climate, and why he's building his dev team in Vietnam at 70% cost savings. He shares hard-won lessons on avoiding "shiny object syndrome," the importance of just starting (rather than waiting for perfection), and why his podcast/social media presence (100K+ followers) became his unexpected lead gen engine despite being a self-proclaimed introvert.
