personas

    title: Founder/CEO
    role: CEO
    bio: Since graduating MIT CS in 2018, I've led a team routing the $1B+ ARR ad pricing system at Amazon Ads, and I've launched several $10M+ ARR LLM ad optimizations at Meta Ads that generated 10B+ ad impressions. 50% of search volume will be eaten up by AI interfaces by 2028. I'm on a mission to build the monetization infrastructure that will power and fund the next age of 1B+ user AI apps, and be the leader of the projected $1.3T AI ad market.
