AI for Founders with Ryan Estes

AI That Turns Ideas Into Real Companies


Listen Later

Welcome to AI for Founders, I'm Ryan Estes.

Every non-technical founder hits the same wall.

You’ve got the idea. You’ve got the market. You’ve even got early traction.

But then comes the question that kills momentum:
“Who’s going to build this?”

Technical cofounder? Impossible to find.
Dev agency? Expensive and slow.
No-code tools? Great… until you need something real.

Today’s guests are here to blow that bottleneck up.

Ben and Brad are the co-founders of Woz, an AI platform designed to act like your technical cofounder — turning raw ideas into production-ready, scalable software, not demos, not toys.

They met as roommates at MIT, raised $6 million, and are building what could become the operating system for non-technical founders who want to ship real products fast.

In this episode, we break down:

  • What AI can actually replace in software development

  • Where humans still matter more than ever

  • And how founders without engineering backgrounds can finally compete at scale

If you’re a founder, operator, or investor wondering what building software looks like in the AI era — this one’s for you.
