EPISODE INTRODUCTION

Ahmed Elsamadisi of Narrator.ai joins us in this episode to share how they are solving the data problems of all startups and tech companies using a very easy-to-use product. Ahmed will share his previous hustle working as a dev in WeWork and how they were able to grow fast and solve problems even though they were using fragmented data points. He will also share what triggered him to create Narrator because of the need to create a functional Business Intelligence tool that is easy to use despite the many data sources startups use. Ahmed will also share the grit it took to get Narrator to where it is today despite the years of having no functional product and getting pressure from investors and almost running out of runway.
