Building @HelloKeywork - capital & AI that works for real-economy entrepreneurs. Founded @UnshackledVC to unlock immigrant founders from visas.

My thoughts on what's driving this elegant distribution model, why the economics work for everyone involved, and the potential lock-in risk.

OpenAI & Anthropic just raised $5.5B for AI deployment services.

Not new models. Not new chips. Human engineers, embedded inside companies, building AI workflows by hand.

[Nitin Pachisia @immigreating]

We founded @HelloKeywork on this exact thesis: real-economy businesses won't vibe-code their way to AI adoption. Good to see PE + OpenAI + Anthropic come at it from the enterprise end, while we bring AI adoption in real-economy businesses at the earliest stages.

That's right. Instant/quick response is a competitive adv in trades. We consistently heard during our customer discovery that an estimate within 1 hour of the query = 7x chance of winning. Excited to bring such operating advantages to @HelloKeywork portfolio companies soon.

“When a restaurant misses a phone call, that’s a $30, $40 order,” Avoca cofounder Tyson Chen told Fortune's @agarfinks. “When a home service business misses a phone call, that could be a $30,000, $40,000 HVAC install they’re missing.” https://t.co/9jEuCVLtEV

@bryce Don’t waste time on stuff that doesn’t compound

[Nitin Pachisia @immigreating]

… product strategy as we build @HelloKeywork for SMBs. The last mile of AI enablement will be paved with ease of use, reliability, AI cost minimization, and coverage across functions / teams.

[Nitin Pachisia @immigreating]

This is a great distillation of whats missing in making AI capabilities business useful at scale.

Finishing projects to make them complete & reliable, + ability to work together are critical.

this is exactly why we built Keywork - to fund ambitious operators to build and run real business with an "AI operating system" as their secret sauce

[Dustin @r0ck3t23]

Mark Cuban just described the largest wealth transfer of the AI era.

Almost nobody understood what he said.

Cuban: “There are 33 million companies in this country. Aren’t going to have AI budgets. Aren’t going to have AI experts.”

Not tech startups.

The shoe store. The regional trucking outfit. The accounting firm with 12 employees.

The businesses that actually run the physical economy.

They know AI is coming. They have no idea what to do with it.

Cuban: “You’ve got the head of Microsoft saying software is dead because everything’s going to be customized to your unique utilization.”

Software is dead.

The SaaS era ran on one rule. Build a generic product. Force millions of companies to bend their workflows around it. Charge rent forever.

AI ends the contract.

The business stops bending to the software. The intelligence bends to the business.

But customized by whom.

The third-generation manufacturer cannot tell Claude from Gemini. The county hospital is staring at a reactor asking where the light switch is.

Cuban: “Who’s going to do it for them?”

That question is worth more than the frontier models themselves.

Hundreds of billions are being burned to build the foundation. The smartest engineers alive are locked in a bloodbath over who owns the base layer.

Let them fight.

Let them burn the capital. Let them drive the cost of raw intelligence toward zero.

Because the wealth does not collect where the brain is built.

It collects where the brain meets the business.

Every ambitious kid in college right now thinks survival means a seat at OpenAI or Anthropic.

Cuban is staring at the other 99 percent of the economy.

Learn the models. Then learn the messy, unglamorous reality of how a 50-person company actually operates.

Walk through the door. Understand their problems. Wire the intelligence directly into their revenue.

That is not a job title. That is an entire economic class being born.

You do not need to build the brain. You need to build the nervous system.

The biggest winners of the electricity era were not the engineers who built the generators. They were the ones who walked into dark factories and showed the owners where to plug in.

33 million companies are standing in the dark right now.

Silicon Valley is racing to build the god. The fortunes will belong to whoever teaches him a trade.

[Nitin Pachisia @immigreating]

Delighted that I get to build this with @mitali, @NagaSamineni and Dishen!

[Nitin Pachisia @immigreating]

Real-economy is poised to be the biggest beneficiary of AI capabilities. @HelloKeywork invests early-stage capital aligned with real-economy biz, & gives portcos an AI operating system to run the biz. Excited to help real-economy founders build AI-native, durable businesses!

@IanRountree When that happens, I tell myself that non-priority would’ve arrived in 10 minutes (2.5x the est time), so I am saving even more time by paying more. Anecdotally, it makes sense, and if it doesn’t, it hurts less.

[Kesava Kirupa Dinakaran @kesava_kirupa]

Since ChatGPT first came out, people have dreamed about solving this problem with AI.
We are actually doing it. Today, @Luminai’s AI agents are directly responsible for driving 12 million end to end processes across American healthcare, working with institutions impacting millions of lives.

[Nitin Pachisia @immigreating]

@SarangTarare Well, I am talking about the people spending on tokens. As if it’s a badge of honor to spend more.

[Nitin Pachisia @immigreating]

Every event in NYC recently, heard people excited about their tokens spend. Seeing a similar sentiment reflected in my feed.
Trying to understand how that is becoming the metric of AI proficiency, versus output / progress made per token.
What am I missing?

[Nitin Pachisia @immigreating]

Mon morning flight, waiting at airport lounge, watching people drink alcoholic bevs at 1030AM. Wondering how they do this. I might still be hungover from a Sat evening drink. 🤦

[Nitin Pachisia @immigreating]

@joshelman Didn’t*

[Nitin Pachisia @immigreating]

@joshelman Ugh. Don’t know that. Looks like bankruptcy in Nov. that was the only full-kitchen I used in NYC 😞
