Listen Later

Dheeraj Pandey is a visionary entrepreneur and philanthropist best known for founding and leading Nutanix from its inception to becoming a publicly traded company valued at approximately $16.5 billion on NASDAQ. In 2020, he launched DevRev, an agentic AI company focused on unifying data to enhance customer experiences, securing over $100 million in funding from Khosla Ventures. Beyond his contributions to technology, Dheeraj co-founded Param Hansa with his wife, Swapna, to advance human life through science and technology. He holds a Computer Science and Engineering degree from IIT Kanpur and a master's in Computer Science from UT Austin.

In this conversation, we discuss:

  • Why data is the backbone of AI and how DevRev is leveraging knowledge graphs to transform customer support and product management.
  • The evolution of enterprise AI—why businesses must integrate AI with human workflows rather than replace them.
  • The future of customer support—how DevRev combines real-time conversations with ticketing systems to improve response times and reduce inefficiencies.
  • The ethical challenges of AI adoption—how bias, security, and machine reliability shape the future of AI-driven business operations.
  • How DevRev raised over $100M, including an unconventional approach using blockchain and decentralized funding models.
  • Dheeraj’s vision for AI’s next frontier—why the real challenge isn’t intelligence, but making AI work seamlessly with human decision-making.
