In this episode, I had the opportunity to chat with Sean Gigremosa, founder of Claritiv, a conversation intelligence tool designed to transform business conversations into actionable insights. Sean's journey began in the tech world as a developer for major players like AOL and Warner Brothers, eventually moving into product management at Rolls-Royce and Premiere Digital Services. His experience revealed a gap in how companies manage and remember key conversations, leading him to create Claritiv to solve that problem.

We discussed how Claritiv helps teams synthesize key details from meetings, pulling out pain points, action items, and more, ultimately improving collaboration between sales and product teams. Sean also shared his transition from corporate life to entrepreneurship, talking candidly about the challenges—like choosing the wrong business structure and narrowly focusing on product features early on. He stressed the importance of customer validation and continuous feedback from users to build a product that truly serves its market.

When asked what advice he'd give his younger self, Sean echoed what many entrepreneurs say: "I wish I'd started sooner." While entrepreneurship can be scary, he explained that the freedom to control your own future—and the empowerment that comes with it—is worth the leap. Sean is building something impactful with Claritiv, and it's clear he's just getting started.
