“Sometimes when people spend too much time in corporate life, they kind of are taught to not think. Don’t think just do. And that is really like the opposite of what we want people to think,” Ozan Bilgen says, “We want people to be critical about the process and come up with their solutions as well, if possible.”

Ozan founded Base64.ai, an artificial intelligence service that works as a one-stop-shop for processing any type of document. 

Before starting his own company, Ozan had been a part of major corporations such as Netflix, PayPal, Uber, and Microsoft after moving from Turkey. During his time at Uber, he came across the issue that Base64.ai now aims to solve.

Base64.ai differs from its competitors in its rate of accuracy when extracting data, having 25% more accuracy than competitors, Ozan says. 

In this episode, Carol and Ozan discuss what he’s learned from working for major companies. He talks about wanting clients to overuse their services, a strategy he picked up at Netflix. 

Ozan also walks us through what the “no-code revolution” is and how it will further transform the tech industry.
