A teacher came in for migraines and weight loss with a stack of leaky gut test results and a diagnosis that never fixed her. Shiv K. Goel is a board-certified internal medicine and functional medicine physician who argues that leaky gut is not a diagnosis but a physiological response, and that the upstream driver is often chronic stress and a dysregulated cortisol rhythm. This episode is based on his article "Why your leaky gut tests aren't fixing your symptoms," published on KevinMD. You will hear why a normal scope and an IBS label can still leave a patient uncured, why no single permeability test is reliable on its own, and why objective results still matter because they drive patient adherence. He explains why he reaches for sleep, stress reduction, and targeted support over a generic supplement stack, and why you should neither dismiss patients with normal labs nor over-order unvalidated panels. Press play to hear why the fix starts with the story behind the symptoms, not the next panel. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

We've got something different today: a live demo and walkthrough of how an actual product leader built a real, PM-focused tool with AI. Our guest today put her proverbial money where her mouth is when she got sick of the AI hype and anxiety and grew tired of writing the same status update five different ways for five different audiences. So she decided to build her way out of the never-ending loop of draft, then repackage again and again and again. And today, she's going to demo it for us and show how she and a team of collaborators built an entire AI PM operating system to help with the myriad of similar, repetitive tasks that product leaders face! Parul Goel has spent nearly 20 years in product, including almost nine at PayPal building a zero-to-one payments platform for marketplaces, and her recent stint as Senior Director of Product at Indeed.com, leading the payments and billing platform through a major scaling challenge. In this episode, Parul shows: A live demo of the PM operating system she built with 3 fellow product leaders and the four-layered architecture behind it Why the "context library" and codifying company identity, stakeholders, and voice is the layer most people skip, BUT the one that matters most And how the system handles core PM workflows like exec updates, cross-functional communication, customer interview synthesis, and PRD drafts Links Parul's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pg2121/ PM OS GitHub project: https://github.com/goelparul-cyber/AI-PM-OS Parul's collaborators: Vidya Sarangapan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vsara/ Priyank C.: https://www.linkedin.com/in/priyankachaturvedimit/ Bhagyashree Prabhakar: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bhagya-prabhakar/ Chapters 00:00 Introcution 02:58 The inspiration behind Parul's PM OS tool 07:26 Live Demo: Exec update (Video version on YouTube!) 12:54 Other PM OS skills 13:55 Why building the context library is the most important part of the process 20:48 The future of PM with AI 21:57 Conclusion Follow LaunchPod on YouTube We have a new YouTube page!

Your blood pressure is fine. Your cholesterol looks great. So why do you still feel exhausted, wired, and unwell? Internal medicine and functional medicine physician Shiv K. Goel returns to explain what standard lab panels miss when chronic stress quietly reshapes the body. This episode is based on his article "Normal labs miss what most patients are living through," published on KevinMD. You will hear how sustained stress ripples through your hormones, gut, and immune system, and why a patient can be genuinely sick while every routine result comes back normal. Shiv walks through the targeted tests he uses, from salivary cortisol to the Dutch test, and is candid that not all of it is covered by insurance or backed by the usual evidence. He also makes the case for listening longer and treating the root cause, with real ways to do it inside a packed schedule. You will come away with practical ways to hear more in a short visit and follow the clues standard labs leave behind. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

Waiting three to five days for funds isn't just annoying, it quietly reshapes entire business models. I sit down with Arpit Goel, CEO of Root, to unpack why money movement in the United States still depends on slow, multi-hop workflows and how that slowness creates “float” across payroll, staffing, marketplaces, insurance, and the creator economy. When settlement is delayed, someone benefits, and Arpit makes a sharp case that incentives are the real blocker, not the lack of technology.We dig into what Root is building in the instant payments space: a non-custodial, bank-to-bank infrastructure layer that aims to deliver true real-time payments where funds settle in seconds and can be used immediately. Arpit explains the “Zelle for businesses” idea, why it matters for enterprise disbursements, and how programmatic treasury APIs can help companies ship faster without spending a year integrating directly with a bank. We also talk about the current US real-time rails, including FedNow and RTP, and why adoption is accelerating as standards and competition push the ecosystem forward.Then we zoom out to the trends payments leaders can't ignore: agentic payments, fraud and liability, strong customer authentication, and the stablecoin-to-bank convergence as regulation catches up. Arpit's final message is direct: compliance is a follower, and security needs to be years ahead as AI-driven attacks scale faster than humans ever could.

Karan is the co-founder and CEO of Cartesia, an AI model lab building the next generation of real-time voice intelligence.In this episode, Karan explains what all goes into building an AI Lab company; from massive datasets to pre-training to post-training to inference engines, plus a heavy dose of relentless evaluation, and obsession with every layer of the stack. We also discuss why existing AI benchmarks are not very helpful, why latency is voice AI's biggest enemy, and why maintaining context across long conversations is one of the hardest unsolved problems.Apart from the cutting edge tech, this conversation explores Karan's journey from researcher to founder, building Cartesia with a five-person founding team, raising capital, and realizing why first-time founders waste years focusing on things that ultimately don't matter.If you want a glimpse into the future of AI, watch this episode.00:00 Trailer01:35 From DPS to Stanford to Cartesia02:35 From Counter-Strike to AI04:28 Another Research Paper Wasn't Enough06:48 The Story Behind “Cartesia”07:17 Building a Company With Five Technical Founders09:55 From Research Project to Startup13:54 Cartesia's Audacious Vision for 203515:07 What It Takes to Build an AI Model Company18:55 Why Faster AI Doesn't Have to Be Worse24:12 AI Still Has a Memory Problem27:14 Why Context Builds Trust27:50 Will AI Replace Entire Account Teams?29:16 Hold Music Is Now a Salesman30:30 Designing AI That Feels Personal31:31 Building With Cartesia34:48 Voice AI's Enemy #1: Latency38:50 Why AI Labs See the Future First41:32 Finding Product Market Fit45:34 Great Products Don't Need Much Marketing48:12 Very Few Things Matter52:26 How Big Can Voice AI Get55:53 Fundraising And Mission58:15 What Cartesia Is Ultimately Building-------------India's talent has built the world's tech—now it's time to lead it.This mission goes beyond startups.

What happens to a seized mafia asset after the headlines fade? Dr Amber Phillips, Senior Lecturer in Criminology at UWE Bristol, has spent her career chasing that answer, starting with fieldwork in Calabria alongside anti-mafia organisations working to strip the 'Ndrangheta of its assets and its grip on local communities.She joins Jason Sandoval to unpack her 'Beyond the Figures' research with financial investigators across England and Wales and the gap between headline recoveries and what practitioners count as success. Amber argues for a fifth 'D', Destination, alongside disruption, disentitlement and deterrence, and previews her new NCA/Home Office study, funded through the Asset Recovery Incentivisation Scheme (ARIS), on whether asset recovery genuinely deters crime.⏱️ Timestamps02:00 – Amber's route into asset recovery via Calabria08:45 – how mafia power works and what asset recovery undermines14:00 – the GOEL social reuse model in Calabria17:50 – proposing a fifth D: destination as a measure of success21:00 – Beyond the Figures29:45 – how ARIS funding actually works
In this episode of The Birth Lounge Podcast, HeHe sits down with pelvic floor physical therapist Hayley Kava, founder of UMA Pelvic Health, to tackle one of the most common pregnancy complaints that doesn't get nearly enough attention: SI joint pain. If you've been told pregnancy pain is "just part of it," this conversation is your reminder that you don't have to simply suffer through it. Hayley explains what's actually happening in your pelvis during pregnancy, why SI joint pain develops, and how your pelvic floor, core, ribcage, breathing, and overall movement patterns all work together. Together, HeHe and Hayley break down why treating the pelvis in isolation often misses the bigger picture, how pregnancy hormones and your changing biomechanics influence pain, and why small changes to the way you move, stand, breathe, and rest can make a huge difference. They also discuss practical tools like SI belts, belly support bands, Pilates balls, yoga blocks, and gentle movement strategies, along with when those tools can help... and when they might not. Hayley also shares why pelvic floor physical therapy isn't just about internal exams (and yes, those are always optional), how to build a supportive birth team, and why individualized care is one of the best investments you can make during pregnancy. Whether you're already dealing with pelvic pain or hoping to prevent it, this episode is packed with practical, evidence-based strategies to help you move more comfortably, feel more supported, and better understand your changing body throughout pregnancy. 00:00 Stop Blaming Pelvic Floor 01:03 Pelvic Floor Basics 01:56 Meet Hayley Kava 03:19 Why SI Pain Matters 06:43 SI Joint Anatomy 09:18 Normal Asymmetry Patterns 12:20 Pubic Pain and Rolling 15:52 Inhibit Then Retrain 17:56 Rubiks Cube Body Model 20:10 Stop Bracing to Sneeze 21:34 Pregnancy Posture Fixes 25:31 Preparing for Labor Moves 29:14 Build Your Care Team 33:39 Pregnancy Compensation Patterns 34:36 Spotting Habitual Postures 36:46 Mindful Pain Check Ins 38:29 Shifting Stance And Sitting 41:29 Tension Beyond Pelvic Floor 43:23 Guarding And SI Joint Myths 46:16 Ribs Hip And Big Picture 47:57 Internal Exam Is Optional 50:38 Daily Tools And Movement 56:43 Services Access And Wrap Up Guest Bio: Hayley became a pelvic floor therapist in 2017 after a birth injury opened her eyes to the limitations in traditional pelvic rehab.

What if the future of surgical training doesn't happen in the operating room? In this episode of Med Tech Gurus, we sit down with Dr. Danny Goel, orthopedic surgeon, clinical professor at the University of British Columbia, and CEO & co-founder of Precision OS, to explore how virtual reality and AI are transforming surgical education. Today's training environment is under pressure—reduced clinical hours, increasing procedural complexity, and a relentless focus on operating room efficiency are limiting opportunities for hands-on learning. The traditional "see one, do one, teach one" model is no longer enough. Dr. Goel shares how Precision OS is addressing this challenge with immersive VR simulation that allows surgeons to practice procedures on demand, receive objective performance feedback, and improve skills outside the operating room. With over 100+ orthopedic training modules and the ability to capture detailed performance data, the platform is redefining how surgical competency is measured and developed. We explore the shift from subjective evaluation to data-driven skill assessment, the importance of workflow integration for adoption, and how just-in-time training can improve both surgeon confidence and patient outcomes. If you're interested in medical education, surgical simulation, AI in healthcare, virtual reality training, or MedTech innovation, this episode offers a compelling look at how technology is reshaping the future of surgical training.

Traditionally, European power systems were engineered around a single imperative: survive the winter "Dunkelflaute," those prolonged cold, dark, windless stretches that push demand higher while renewable generation collapses. But rising summer temperatures are dismantling this assumption. Heat waves are forcing a fundamental recalibration of infrastructure investment, operational strategy and market design across the European power sector. In this episode, host Eklavya Gupte speaks with Parth Goel, power analyst at S&P Global Energy CERA, about how extreme heat is reshaping demand patterns, straining supply and exposing vulnerabilities in the continent's energy infrastructure. Goel explains why France, not Southern Europe, has emerged as the most price-sensitive region during heat waves, how solar generation creates dramatic price swings between midday troughs and evening peaks, and why Europe is shifting from a winter-peaking power system to a dual-peaking one. The conversation also examines the compounding effects of drought on Alpine hydro, the thermal stress on nuclear cooling systems, and why summer now demands the same infrastructure planning attention as winter.

Part 2 of 2. In Part 1 we walked the road from 2011 — three companies, an investor ultimatum, and the capital it took to build. Part 2 is the mind. Saahil Goel starts with what, given hindsight, he'd do differently, then the first principles he runs Shiprocket on (distribution beats product), the two or three metrics he genuinely obsesses over, his bet on applied AI, why he believes you can't actually manage people, who does and doesn't survive at the company, the guitar he still plays, his dog, and the question Rohin closes every episode with, which Saahil answers with a single number.Chapters1:02 With hindsight, what he'd do differently2:10 “A paisa of every transaction in India”5:23 First principles: distribution beats product11:32 The metrics he obsesses over17:22 Betting on applied AI29:33 “You can't manage people”31:45 Who doesn't survive at Shiprocket42:05 The guitar, Pink Floyd, and Bruno the CHO58:28 The book he forgets — and how he reflects1:00:50 Rating his life an 8This episode was produced by Rohin Dharmakumar and mixed and mastered by Rajiv CN.Write to us at fp@the-ken.com with your feedback, suggestions, and guests you would want to see on First Principles.If you enjoyed this episode, please help us spread the word by sharing and gifting it to your friends and family.
Tech workers can be rigorous at work and surprisingly loose with their own money. After more than 200 coaching sessions, Vaibhav Goel keeps seeing the same patterns: too much wealth tied up in one company's stock, excess cash sitting idle, missed tax-advantaged accounts, and generic advice that does not fit high earners.In this episode, Marc Baselga and Ben Erez sit down with Vaibhav Goel, a former product leader at DoorDash, Google, Lyft, LinkedIn, and Microsoft who now coaches tech professionals on their finances. They unpack what changes at different net-worth levels, how to think about 529s and concentrated equity, why traditional advisor models can miss this group, and what a more practical financial plan can look like.They explore the most common money mistakes he sees, how priorities shift at different net-worth levels, plain-English breakdowns of things like 529 accounts and long-short investing, why traditional advisor incentives leave a lot of tech workers underserved, and how to think about diversifying a portfolio that has become dangerously concentrated in one stock.If you're a tech worker who optimizes everything at work but defaults on your own finances, someone sitting on concentrated company stock and unsure what to do next, or anyone curious how the newly wealthy actually handle sudden money, this episode is for you.This conversation is for education only and is not personal financial, investment, or tax advice.All episodes of the podcast are also available on Spotify, Apple and YouTube.New to the pod?

Part 1 of 2. Most people date Shiprocket to 2017; in truth it was born in 2011, and the road there runs through two companies called KartRocket and Craftly. Saahil Goel walks Rohin through the build: Rs 15 lakh of their own money, nearly not being hired by their own first engineers, the hard lesson that in India you sell outcomes not software, an investor ultimatum to take $4 million or nothing, and by the end, just how much capital it's taken to get from that first office to the edge of a public listing.

Anurag was employee #8 at Stripe, set for life and free to do anything next. Instead he spent a year and a half hunting for a problem worth decades of his life. He chose to build a product to make it simple for developers to ship apps, going head-to-head with AWS.In this episode, Anurag breaks down how he hit $10M ARR in 4 years with zero marketing spend, why refusing to launch a free tier was his most expensive mistake, and how putting engineers on customer support rotations quietly shaped the entire product roadmap.Why You Should ListenWhy you don't have real product market fit until your users sell the product for you.How a sub-2-minute setup turned developers into a word-of-mouth machine.Why skipping a free tier for years was his most expensive mistake.How engineers doing support on rotation built the roadmap—and 6M+ developers.Keywords startup podcast, startup podcast for founders, product market fit, finding pmf, developer tools, cloud infrastructure, PaaS, Render, word of mouth growth, product-led growth, AI infrastructure, StripeChapters00:00:00 Intro00:01:44 The Moment of True Product Market Fit00:04:14 The #1 Driver of Word of Mouth00:13:25 Why He Left Stripe to Build Render00:23:48 Why AWS Would Never Build This00:30:33 $10M ARR With No Marketing Spend00:36:43 Engineers as the Support Team00:42:19 Riding the AI BoomSend me a message to let me know what you think!
Before he founded Render, Anurag Goel was the fifth engineer at Stripe, where he watched roughly a fifth of the engineering team disappear into managing AWS, writing brittle, repetitive, error-prone infrastructure scripts that had nothing to do with the actual product. That experience became the seed for Render: a platform that automates away the undifferentiated DevOps work and lets application teams ship without standing up their own cloud team. Today, millions of developers build on it, and Render has raised over $260M from Bessemer and General Catalyst. In this episode, Tobi and Anurag get into what's actually changing as AI moves from hype to production. Anurag makes the case that agents are simply a new kind of application, long-running, stateful, tool-heavy, and a new kind of end user you have to design for. He explains why Render deliberately refuses the "AI cloud" label, what he's building with Workflows and sandboxes, and why the hardest part of shipping agents isn't building them but seeing inside them. The conversation also goes wide: how to hire executives when interviews lie, why short-lived keys and blast-radius thinking matter more than container escapes, how distribution is shifting from SEO to getting ChatGPT and Claude to recommend you, and why, despite all the "SaaS is dead" noise, specialization isn't going anywhere. Topics covered: Why ~20% of Stripe's engineers were stuck managing AWS and how that became Render "We're not the AI cloud, we're the application cloud," and why the distinction matters Agents, as a new type of application (and a new end user), you have to build for Render Workflows and sandboxes: the consolidated AI runtime Hiring executives when interviews are an imperfect signal Security as blast-radius management: short-lived keys over "admin forever" The shift from SEO to GEO, getting chatbots to recommend your product Why SaaS isn't dying, and specialization still wins

The same Robert Kennedy Jr. who sued Monsanto over glyphosate in 2017 is now defending an order to expand its production. What does a functional medicine physician do with that? Shiv K. Goel, an internal medicine and functional medicine physician, argues that the Make America Healthy Again movement correctly names the chronic disease crisis, ultra-processed food, and a broken food system, then prescribes the wrong treatment. This episode is based on his article "Make America Healthy Again fails true functional medicine," published on KevinMD. You will hear why MAHA's root-cause language overlaps with functional medicine, why undermining vaccines during a measles outbreak is the contradiction the guest cannot ignore, how silence on Medicaid and SNAP cuts hurts the patients most harmed by chronic disease, and why clinicians must reclaim root-cause language from populist politics. If you have felt torn between agreeing with parts of MAHA and rejecting the rest, this conversation draws the line the guest thinks physicians have to hold. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

Join Yogi Goel, Co-founder, CEO, and CFO of Maxima, for an unvarnished conversation on breaking the legacy architecture of corporate finance. After a 20-year career spanning auditing at EY, tech IPOs at Citi and Barclays, and scaling Rubrik from $5M to $900M in ARR, Yogi was firmly on the venture-backed CFO track. Instead, he realized that despite decades of enterprise software, accounting teams were still trapped in a monthly cycle of manual data wrangling and spreadsheet anguish. In this episode, we explore how Maxima secured $41M in funding from Kleiner Perkins and Redpoint, why the "semi-annual close" debate misses the mark, and why the future of finance relies on AI acting as a horizontal system of work layered directly over existing ERPs.
Mansi Goel and Allison Melody had just met. They were on their way to what they thought was a beagle rescue training session when the call came in: “It's happening now.” In a shocking turn, they were suddenly headed straight into the historic Ridglan Farms rescue, where more than a thousand people showed up to stand for beagles who had spent their lives inside a breeding facility. In this episode of Food Heals, Allison Melody sits down with animal rescuer, executive coach, and fellow Ridglan Farms rescuer Mansi Goel to talk about what really happened that day, how quickly everything changed, and why neither of them will ever forget it. What started as a trip to Wisconsin to help rescue beagles turned into hours of fear, heartbreak, courage, pepper spray, rubber bullets, and the kind of devotion that only comes from people who refuse to look away. Mansi shares what it felt like to arrive at Ridglan Farms, see the first hay bale rolled into the trench, make the choice to stay, and realize she was capable of more than she ever imagined. She also opens up about why she did not walk away feeling traumatized, but empowered. For Mansi, this was the moment she discovered what it meant to put her whole being on the line for animals. This conversation goes beyond one rescue. It's about the moment ordinary people become rescuers.The moment outrage becomes action.The moment fear gives way to purpose.And the question so many of us are asking now: If we would never allow this to happen to beagles, why do we allow it to happen to any animal? Allison and Mansi also talk about the emotional days after the rescue, when they learned the beagles were finally coming out, and the videos began showing them touching grass, receiving care, and being given names for the first time. For Mansi, that moment was sacred. These beagles had been treated like products. Naming them was not just a formality. It was a recognition of who they had always been: living beings, individuals, fellow earthlings. They also explore the connection between animal rescue, healing, compassion, and the systems that keep suffering hidden from public view. This is an episode about rescue, resilience, and the day thousands of people refused to walk away.

The ACOG recommends a multimodal approach to postoperative pain that includes nonsteroidal NSAIDs, acetaminophen, and opioids. Ketorolac is a favored NSAID for postop pain control. However, the optimal dose of ketorolac after cesarean delivery has not been determined. In this episode, we will summarize a brand new randomized, controlled, single-blind trial of pregnant women undergoing cesarean delivery under regional anesthesia at a large academic medical center between June 2022 and October 2023. Enrolled participants were randomized to receive an initial loading dose of 60 mg (intervention) or 30 mg (control) of intravenous ketorolac in the operating room at the end of surgery.1.

Is the new oral Wegovy pill a breakthrough or a risk most patients never hear about? Shiv K. Goel, an internal medicine and functional medicine physician, joins the show to unpack his KevinMD article, "Oral Wegovy: the miracle and the mess of the new GLP-1 pill," and why treating this drug casually could hurt you. He breaks down emerging data linking high-dose semaglutide to ischemic optic neuropathy, with reporting odds nearly five times higher for Wegovy than Ozempic, and explains why the obesity population faces unique hemodynamic risks. You will learn why he never prescribes a GLP-1 without prescribing a plan, including slow titration, protein and resistance training to protect lean mass, hormone optimization, and red flag education. Goel also addresses the rebound weight gain most patients face after stopping, the dangers of buying compounded GLP-1 medications from medical spas, and why losing just 10 pounds may not warrant these drugs at all. If you are considering oral Wegovy or already on a GLP-1, this episode could change how you approach weight loss medication. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

Internal medicine and functional medicine physician Shiv K. Goel discusses the article "Why lifestyle matters more than BPC-157 and semaglutide." Shiv explains how the modern longevity boom has trained patients to seek out quick fixes like peptides and weight loss injections while ignoring foundational habits. He shares a compelling patient story to illustrate why optimizing sleep, circadian rhythms, and stress management is far more powerful than any supplement drawer. Shiv argues that tracking endless biomarkers with wearables without understanding a patient's personal story only creates anxiety. By prioritizing deep listening and addressing the root causes of metabolic dysfunction, clinicians can offer real solutions rather than just another health care transaction.

In this episode of Cloud Wars Live, Bob Evans sits down with Pankaj Goel, CEO of Opkey, to explore how agentic AI is reshaping ERP implementations and the broader systems integrator landscape. Goel shares how Opkey's platform automates the full lifecycle of enterprise applications — from design through testing and support — while addressing long-standing inefficiencies in implementation models. The discussion highlights the growing urgency for speed, cost efficiency, and business outcomes in the AI Era, and how digital workers are enabling organizations to rethink both delivery models and competitive positioning. AI Transforms ERP The Big Themes: AI Reshapes ERP Delivery Models: The conversation underscores a major disconnect between modern cloud ERP adoption and outdated implementation methodologies. While enterprises are rapidly shifting toward cloud-based systems like Oracle, SAP, and Workday, many systems integrators still rely on legacy approaches rooted in early-2000s practices. This mismatch results in inefficiencies, cost overruns, and delayed outcomes. Opkey addresses this gap by introducing AI-driven automation that aligns delivery models with the speed and flexibility required in today's AI Economy. Massive Time and Cost Savings: The platform delivers measurable efficiency gains. Customers report up to 40% reductions in day-to-day operational time post-implementation, while testing cycles shrink from weeks to just a few days. For systems integrators, implementation costs have dropped by approximately 25% in early deployments. These improvements not only enhance productivity but also enable faster innovation cycles, allowing businesses to respond more quickly to market changes. A Win-Win Ecosystem Vision: Opkey's strategy is built around creating value for all stakeholders: ERP vendors, systems integrators, and end customers. By improving implementation success rates, reducing costs, and accelerating time to value, the platform fosters a “win-win” ecosystem. This holistic approach ensures that innovation benefits the entire enterprise software value chain, rather than optimizing for one group at the expense of others. The Big Quote: “Copilots. . . help you understand your information better, whereas agents and agentic AI is a fundamentally different way of conceiving work. Think of an AI agent as a digital worker, just like you used to have Oracle administrators in past and your business analysts."

Yogi spent 20 years living the nightmare of enterprise accounting. As a senior finance leader at Rubrik, he watched highly paid professionals spend three weeks every month manually wrangling data into spreadsheets—a problem that caused mass burnout and multi-million dollar stock corrections.When ChatGPT launched, Yogi knew the technology was finally ready to solve the problem. In this episode, he breaks down how he left his executive track to found Maxima, how he landed massive enterprises like Scale AI and Rippling as early design partners, and why he managed to raise $41M from top-tier VCs like Kleiner Perkins and Redpoint before he even had a pitch deck.Why You Should ListenHow a 1st-time founder raised an $11M Seed and a $30M Series A in a year.Why replacing accountants with AI is a bigger opportunity than replacing SaaS tools.How to use the "Design Partner Playbook" to secure Fortune 500 customers.Why charging for an MVP creates the friction you actually need to find true PMF.The difference between selling "digital shelves" and selling "folded laundry" in the age of AI.Keywordsstartup podcast, startup podcast for founders, AI in accounting, enterprise SaaS, product market fit, finding pmf, raising seed round, raising series a, B2B sales, design partners00:00:00 Intro00:07:37 Leaving a CFO Track to Become a Founder00:11:52 Raising an $11M Seed Round from Kleiner Perkins00:20:07 The Design Partner Playbook00:22:34 Why You Must Charge Your Early Design Partners00:28:36 The Aha Moment for Product Market Fit00:33:20 Selling "Folded Laundry" Instead of "Digital Shelves"00:36:47 Raising a $30M Series A Pre-EmptivelySend me a message to let me know what you think!
Internal medicine and functional medicine physician Shiv K. Goel discusses his article "Agentic AI in medicine: the danger of automating the doctor." Shiv analyzes the new ARPA-H "ADVOCATE" program which aims to deploy autonomous AI agents for heart disease care within three years. The conversation highlights the critical difference between processing data and understanding a patient, noting that AI cannot read the fear in a voice or the silence between words. Shiv warns of the "liability black hole" that arises when algorithms make high-stakes decisions and argues that technology must serve the healer rather than replace the human connection.

Internal medicine physician Shiv K. Goel discusses his article "Claude for Healthcare vs. administrative burden: a physician's review." Shiv contrasts the two hours he spent fighting a prior authorization with the promise of Anthropic's new "Claude for Healthcare," an AI system designed to handle claims and verify coverage in minutes. The conversation explores the race between Anthropic and OpenAI to dominate medical AI and the potential for these tools to liberate physicians from paperwork. Shiv warns, however, that without physician input, these efficiencies could simply be used to increase patient quotas rather than improve care.

Maxima is building AI agents that automate enterprise accounting while maintaining the auditability and control standards finance teams require. In a recent episode of BUILDERS, we sat down with Yogi Goel, CEO and Co-Founder of Maxima, to explore his eight-year journey at Rubrik from Series C through IPO, and how those lessons shaped his approach to solving the 70-80% of finance time currently wasted on manual work. Topics Discussed: Why Rubrik's approach—entering stagnant markets with first-principles thinking—became Maxima's blueprint Securing $3K-$5K POC commitments from Figma mockups before writing code Why Scale AI and Rippling rejected a point solution and demanded 3-4 modules from day one The compound startup model: building multiple products simultaneously to meet buyer expectations How 17% of CFOs are adopting AI tools today (vs 51% in software development) Why finance teams view AI agents as "digital college freshmen" who need proof of work Hiring from YouTube Studios, Apple, and Robinhood instead of legacy finance software companies How NetSuite World conference booth sizes revealed the data integration infrastructure gap The $3K-$5K validation threshold that proved finance pain was urgent enough to pay pre-product GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Demand generation unlocks engineering potential: Yogi learned from his Rubrik mentors: "focus on demand and if you have great engineers then they will solve the problems." Maxima built products in 2-3 months they didn't initially know were technically feasible—because customer demand pulled the engineering team forward. For founders with strong technical teams, customer demand should drive the roadmap, not engineering's comfort zone. Trust your engineers to solve hard problems when customers are waiting. $3K-$5K is the pre-product validation threshold: Before writing any code, Yogi secured POC commitments at this price point based solely on Figma mockups. This isn't about revenue—it's about proving urgency. Verbal interest means nothing. Small pilot commitments mean "we'll try it someday." But $3K-$5K pre-product means "this problem is urgent enough to pay before seeing a working solution." Use this threshold to separate real pain from polite interest. Sophisticated buyers will reject your narrow MVP: Scale AI and Rippling told Maxima explicitly: "If you will only build this one thing, we will not buy. You have to commit to building three, four modules." Conventional wisdom says start narrow, but enterprise buyers with complex workflows won't adopt point solutions that create new integration headaches. When sophisticated buyers articulate their real buying criteria, ignore the startup playbook. Yogi built a "compound startup" with 4-5 modules from day one because that's what the market demanded. Target acute pain over easy access: Early-stage companies (10-30 people) were easier to reach but finance wasn't urgent enough. At that scale, it's "build product, ship product"—finance operations aren't broken enough to warrant urgent attention. Companies at 500-1,000+ employees have finance teams drowning in manual work that prevents strategic contribution. Target where pain justifies urgent action and budget exists, not where calendar access is easiest. Hire intensity and first-principles thinking over domain knowledge: Maxima deliberately hired zero engineers from legacy finance software companies. Their frontend engineer came from YouTube Studios. Others came from Apple, Robinhood, Netflix—none with financial product experience. Yogi's three hiring criteria: "incredible intensity, huge confidence in themselves, and fast thinking mode." Domain expertise creates pattern-matching to old solutions. First-principles thinking creates breakthrough products. One team member didn't finish high school but is "one of the best out there." Make AI explainable or finance teams won't adopt: Finance teams adopted faster than expected because Maxima showed every calculation step. "If they can prove by looking at the Math, you know, 18 plus 88 plus 36 is X. And I can see the step of the work, they are willing to give it to them." This isn't about fancy UX—it's about auditor-grade proof of work. Finance professionals won't trust black box outputs. Build transparency into the product architecture, not as an afterthought. This explainability became Maxima's competitive moat. Conference booth sizes reveal infrastructure gaps: At NetSuite World, the largest booths weren't ERP vendors or payment processors—they were data integration companies. This single observation validated that enterprises are desperately solving data fragmentation problems. Companies manually download from Stripe, Snowflake, Salesforce weekly to build Excel pivots. Maxima invested in upstream integrations as core infrastructure from day one. Use industry conferences to validate where companies are spending money on workarounds—that's where infrastructure gaps exist. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Rajeev Goel, CEO of PubMatic, joins Ari Paparo and Eric Franchi to discuss how agentic AI and AdCP are reshaping the media buying process, collapsing the ad tech value chain, and creating new opportunities for publishers and advertisers to compete with walled gardens. Takeaways Agentic AI can automate planning, buying, and optimization beyond today's DSP workflows. PubMatic's AgenticOS lets advertisers transact through AI agents using AdCP. AI efficiency may grow digital ad spend and shift more ROI budgets to the open internet. Seller agents and marketplaces could help publishers unlock demand without big sales teams.

Internal medicine and functional medicine physician Shiv K. Goel discusses his article "Mind-body connection in chronic disease: Why traditional medicine falls short." Shiv explores the limitations of conventional medical models that focus solely on acute intervention while ignoring the emotional roots of chronic conditions. He shares the compelling story of Linda whose physical ailments were deeply connected to decades of suppressed grief and trauma.
