S1 | E21 | What it takes to build your first AI powered start up with Jay Sarmaz - CEO & Co-Founder at Truve

This is Episode 21 of the ThinkData Podcast in partnership with Dataworks and it was my pleasure to welcome Jay Sarmaz to the show.

Jay is the CEO and Co-founder at Truve. Truve is an AI-powered legal analytics platform for law firms and their platform helps firms understand performance whilst at the same time helping to drive efficiencies across all parts of the business.

We had a great discussion, covering a number of topics, such as -

  • Jay's background, what brought him to the US, and then to launch Truve.
  • The vision behind Truve and what makes it a unique proposition within the field of Legal AI
  • The steps Jay took to establish a founder team, and then launch.
  • His advice to other founders who are looking at launching their own business
  • The steps that Jay and his founder team take to establish a core set of values/principles that his team was hired and reviewed against?
  • What makes a great startup vs. an average one
  • What is next in the world of AI

Jay is an extremely charismatic and engaging leader and no surprise his business has done so well! This episode is a great listen to anyone who wants to understand what it takes to conceive an idea and then subsequently launch your own AI start-up!
