Manage episode 493545761 series 3654798
In this episode of Founders Future, with host Jae Encarnacion, we sit down with Sridhar Ravula, founder of Hegemony AI, to explore how his company is bridging the gap between raw manufacturing data and actionable business decisions. Sridhar shares how his background in anthropology, finance, and AI led him to create an "operational co-pilot" for mid-market manufacturers—solving critical pain points like supply chain disruptions and quality control with real-time AI analysis. He reveals why traditional sales approaches fall short in this space and how warm introductions from happy clients are driving their growth.
Sridhar dives into the unique challenges of AI adoption in manufacturing, where the cost of failure is high but the appetite for innovation is growing. He discusses Hegemony’s "information architecture in a box" approach and their research into domain-specific language models that could put them 18 months ahead of competitors. For founders, he offers a golden nugget: "Push AI tools to their limits—but know where they break."
