In this episode, we interview Puneet Mehta, Founder and CEO of Netomi. They’re a machine intelligence company that uses AI to turn customer service into a competitive edge. Puneet spent much of his career as a tech entrepreneur as well as on Wall Street building trading AI.   His current venture, started in 2015, is focused on customer service and what he calls a “workplace multiplier for enterprise companies,” striving to give time back to customers and agents.    We discuss Mehta’s ambitious plans to become a publicly traded company over the next few years.

Saving Customers & Agents Time with AI: Puneet Mehta at Netomi

Puneet Mehta, Founder @ Msg.ai, an artificial intelligence startup for conversational commerce and for an AI founder you don’t get much better than starting your career at IBM's TJ Watson Center, which is exactly what Puneet did. He then went on to build predictive platforms to power large-scale trading systems aka bots on Wall St. It is clearly not joust us who think he is awesome as Advertising Age named Puneet to the Creativity 50 list in 2014, honoring the most creative and innovative thinkers and doers.In Today's Episode You Will Learn:1.) How Puneet made his way into the world of AI and came to be the founder of YC's latest, Msg.ai? 2.) How has the YC experience been for Msg.ai and for Puneet as a founder? Have YC been able to keep the same quality of mentorship with the largely expanding number in their latest batch?  3.) VC funding is usually very available to YC alums graduating, how will Puneet go about picking his investors? What are the fundamental determinants? 4.) What have been the biggest takeaways for Puneet? What has been the highlight? What has been tough? What was surprising and unexpected? How did Puneet deal with the requirement for 10% weekly growth? 5.) Taking a step back now, Puneet has stated before about building the Turing test for money. So what does he mean by this and how does he look at AI as a key driver for conversational commerce? 6.) What is it about messaging that makes Puneet believe this is the platform of the future? What is it that bots provide that has never been possible before?
