Getting AI out of the POC and into production has been the defining challenge of the last three years. Brian Raymond has lived it from the inside — building infrastructure, mistiming bets, and figuring out in real time what "enterprise-ready" actually requires.
This episode covers:
What it takes to get AI out of the demo and into production at scale
Why senior engineering judgment matters more than headcount in the AI era
How Unstructured crossed the Valley of Death without forking their stack — same core code base on Game Warden and in financial services
What a decade at CIA taught Brian about paranoia as a leadership practice
Why the dam may have finally broken on enterprise AI adoption
Brian Raymond is CEO and co-founder of unstructured.io, an AI data infrastructure company with $65M raised, 70M open source downloads, and customers spanning financial services, defense, and enterprise SaaS.
