Chief Evangelist, VP Sales at an AI startup, sharing what actually works selling and building Enterprise AI. the trenches, not the theory.

[Vikas @_ivik]

enterprise AI has a dirty secret.

90% of 'AI-powered' products die in pilot. not because the tech failed. because nobody mapped the AI to a workflow the buyer already owns.

you don't sell AI. you sell a shorter month-end close. a faster audit. a pipeline that doesn't lie.

@RealEmirHan Emily is such an amazing actress, with depth that keeps going ! from Devil wears Prada all the way to Sicaro and what not

@nateherk @HyperFrames_ This is crazy ! Glad you made it before it got taken off.

[Vikas @_ivik]

@anshuc This is getting crazy. The app is edible now

[Vikas @_ivik]

@rpnickson This is one solid promo !

[Vikas @_ivik]

@jjen_abel That’s right .. and that happens on when you have some kind of relationship. And without a relationship you do not have a deal.

[Vikas @_ivik]

@rileybrown oh man ! this is crazy

Shipped something outside my usual B2B lane.

@CreditRun - tells you which credit card to swipe at checkout based on Credit Free Days. Built it because I genuinely couldn't answer that question myself or find an app that does it.

Live on Product Hunt today. Would mean a lot if you checked it out 👇

@Arteymas_ Brilliantly simple

@jjen_abel @shreyas Absolutely these two. Getting in “imagine” mode is super critical, unless they already came prepared.
Project manage their buying process is to ensure they know what to do - coz if they don’t, things will stall.

[Vikas @_ivik]

@TheDoctorLogos Brilliant interpretation.

[Vikas @_ivik]

@HarperSCarroll Interesting way to explain core points. Like it.

@lunarmassdriver If this is it, it’s ugly. Foldables never made sense to me, but to each their own.

[Vikas @_ivik]

@businessbarista Looking forward to follow along and learn

[Vikas @_ivik]

the market doesn't have a capability problem. it has a defensibility problem.

every platform can do the thing. almost none of them have made it hard to replace.

[Vikas @_ivik]

model company? stop assuming the harness will build itself around your API.

application company? stop competing on the model layer. you won't win that fight.

somewhere in between? that's the most dangerous place to be. pick a side.

[Vikas @_ivik]

@jjen_abel Without the LOL

[Vikas @_ivik]

is there a specific harness built for a specific buyer's workflow that you wouldn't swap out even if a cheaper model showed up underneath?

if the harness is generic, it's not a moat. it's a product.

[Vikas @_ivik]

@itsjustmigs_ sounds like a problem worth solving .. when's the launch?

i just submitted an app that solves a parallel problem - which card to use now, to get the max credit free days.. @CreditRun

[Vikas @_ivik]

Totally get that - the different billing cycles and systems make it such a mental load figuring out which card to pick every time.

I made @CreditRun ios app that just shows you the best one instantly based on how many “credit free days” you get with each. Might save you the headache next time you’re reaching for one

[Vikas @_ivik]

@madebyabhinav Yes - take a look at @CreditRun
