Sahitya Senapathy, founder and CEO of Endeavor AI, joins Fund/Build/Scale to talk about launching a solo-founded startup at the intersection of AI and heavy industry.

From building FEMA apps at age 11 to raising $7M before finishing college, Sahitya shares the hard lessons behind the headline.

We dig into:

– Selling AI solutions to manufacturers with no network and no co-founder
– What enterprise customers actually care about in early-stage tech
– Navigating credibility as a first-time founder in hard tech
– Building while still learning — on the floor, in the pitch, as a leader

This is a candid look at what it means to hustle in deep tech without shortcuts or safety nets.
