Turning data into decisions for growth and traction is where many startups stumble.

Our guest, Ahmed Elsamadisi, is the Founder and CEO of Narrator.ai, an innovative platform allowing companies better and quicker access to their critically important data.

Before Narrator, Ahmed was the first member of the data team at WeWork, a team he helped grow to over 40 people. He has also worked as an AI engineer for missile defense systems as well as for self-driving cars.

Narrator allows companies to answer questions about their data in just minutes instead of weeks, using a single 11-column table. Since its founding in 2017, Narrator has helped dozens of companies and graduated from startup accelerator Y Combinator.
