Today’s guest is Derek Crager, founder of Practical AI and the creator of Pocket Mentor—the world’s first voice-based AI built for real-time, hands-free support on the job. With a background in industrial training and a mind shaped by autism, ADHD, and dyslexia, Derek sees patterns others miss. His tech turns expert know-how into instant, voice-guided help—no apps, no logins, just answers. He’s on a mission to close the skills gap and reshape how teams learn, work, and thrive with AI
