Episode 35: The Founder's Guide to Scaling Open Source AI Products to Production on AWS
Omnistrate co-founders Kamal Gupta and Alok Nikhil map the road from open source adoption to revenue: the four ingredients of monetization (project, enterprise features, distribution, go-to-market) and the three business models open to open source AI companies, product-led growth, AWS Marketplace co-sell, and enterprise sales. Alok closes with a live demo that turns vLLM into a managed inference service with a self-service customer portal, showing why distribution needs a control plane and why a Marketplace listing alone gets you discovered but not paid.

Romi Datta, VP and Head of Product Management at DataRobot, explains why enterprise AI is moving past chatbots and copilots toward full agent workforces, and why 95% of agentic AI pilots still fail to deliver measurable ROI. He walks through production use cases from insurance claims processing to industrial safety at Chevron (with NVIDIA edge AI), then breaks down the governance, observability, secure context management, and agent memory an enterprise platform needs to run agents in cloud, hybrid, on-prem, and air-gapped environments.
Episode 31: Building BYOC for Fortune 500: The Real Story of Enterprise AI Deployment
Daniel Chalef, founder and CEO of Zep AI, walks through the brutal technical reality of deploying AI products into Fortune 500 environments, zero-trust architectures, Service Control Policies, no-egress VPCs, and broken image supply chains.
