For our 500th episode, Braden is back on the mic as we reflect on the last 5+ years of doing the podcast. We kick things off with the story behind the rebrand from FinChat to Fiscal.ai, why the name change was necessary, and what’s coming next as the platform evolves. Then, we each bring a company that’s firmly on our radar. One is riding a wave of long-term infrastructure spending, while the other quietly powers a huge portion of the internet.
