About this Episode
Deepti Yenireddy has an incredible track record of creating tech products and platforms that change the trajectory of businesses. What’s her secret sauce? She spends 90% of her time with clients. When she’s not with a client, she and her team are in full ‘speed-to-value’ mode– getting iterations to clients to enjoy and give feedback on, within days, not months. Deepti is our guest on the show today and she’s a fountain of insight and knowledge.
Currently, Deepti is the Founder of Boon, a connected AI platform transforming the trucking and logistics industry. You can tell she spends 90% of her time directly with clients because she rattles off terms like “hours of service review,” “fuel cost mapping,” and “tenders” as if she’s been working in trucking for decades. She breaks down for us where she thinks the industry is at in terms of AI adoption.
Deepti’s goal is to deliver true, real-world value to all the companies that are supporting the backbone of our economy, getting them to the next level where they can actually see double-digit profit margins rather than single-digit margins. If that resonates with you, you’re going to really love this episode.
Plus, Jason and Turley talk about where they’ve bumped into AI this week: Machine tending robots who can “see.”
