I like building things that think.
I built my first agent in 2015 at ServiceFriend, which Meta acquired. Then I founded Tiv.ai, a WhatsApp assistant that grew to over 5 million users. Later I built Wix's first AI agent and led AI at monday.com.
In 2023 I created GPT Researcher, the first open source deep research agent, then co-founded Tavily, the search engine for AI agents, which Nebius acquired.
Most of my work comes down to one idea: making machines useful to people. Now I'm building Ora, which is the reverse: making the world usable by machines.
## investing
I'm also a scout for Sequoia, angel investing in early stage AI startups. Some investments: LangChain, Anthropic, Engram Labs, Delphi, PiLabs (acq. by Microsoft), Runhouse (acq. by Anthropic). If you're working on something exciting, reach out.
