The Ravit Show

1 year ago, Atlassian bought The Browser Company. So I asked Josh Miller the obvious question. Would you do it again? Josh is Co-founder and CEO of The Browser Company, the team behind Arc and now Dia. We sat down at Team ‘26 Europe in Amsterdam on The Ravit Show.

We talked about:

- How the first year inside Atlassian really went

- What Dia is and how it compares to the browser you use today

- What Dia can do that would surprise anyone who thinks an AI browser is just a chatbot in a sidebar

- Why getting someone to switch browsers after 10 years is the hardest problem in software

- Why they started from scratch instead of adding AI to Arc, and which belief he expects to rebuild for in the future

This is one of the most honest founder conversations I have had this year.

Boards are no longer asking if you use AI!!!! They are asking what it returned!!!! I spoke with Brian Duffy, Chief Revenue Officer at Atlassian, at Team ‘26 Europe in Amsterdam.

Brian talks to enterprise leaders every week, so I asked him the questions every CFO is asking right now.

We covered:

- How top enterprises are measuring real ROI from AI today

- Where the compounding returns show up when teams move from 1 tool to the full system of work

- What makes European enterprises different when it comes to adoption and modernization

- How AI is changing Atlassian’s own sales and success teams

- How partners are stepping up with AI advisory, migration and transformation services

- How to scale AI fast without licensing and infrastructure costs spiraling

If you own a budget, watch this before your next planning cycle.

Brian is a blast to talk to!!!!

Everyone is talking about models. Tamar Yehoshua is talking about context!!!! I sat down with Tamar, Chief Product and AI Officer at Atlassian, at Team '26 Europe in Amsterdam on The Ravit Show.

Her view is simple. Every company can rent the same models. What they can't rent is how their business actually works, and that is where the Teamwork Graph comes in.

We got into:

• Why context is the real differentiator in enterprise AI

• The 1 new feature she is most excited for customers to use, from Loom briefs to Rovo Work to Agent Sessions in Jira

• What's new with Atlassian MCP and why meeting people inside Claude, Cursor and ChatGPT matters so much

• How product, engineering and business teams will work 2 to 3 years from now

If you lead a team and you are figuring out where agents fit, this one is for you.

A CIO with hundreds of bots already running doesn't want to hear "rip and replace." So what do you tell them about AI agents? I put that question to Vikram Kakumani, Deputy CTO at UiPath, at FUSION 2026 on The Ravit Show.

This one got deep into architecture:

- How to take an RPA estate with hundreds of bots into agentic automation

- What "controlled agency" really means, and where humans should stay in the loop

- The biggest blocker keeping AI agents out of production

- Orchestrating agents, robots and people together

- The architecture mistake companies keep making with agents

- How the Map of Work gives agents the enterprise context they're missing

- Where Maestro takes orchestration next

The part that stuck with me was controlled agency. Everyone wants agents that act on their own. Very few teams have decided where a person still needs to sign off. Vikram laid out a practical way to draw that line.

Where would you keep a human in the loop for your agents?

UiPath put 'Where AI meets ROI' on the main stage. I asked the CMO to back it up. I grabbed Michael Atalla, CMO, UiPath minutes after the day 1 keynote at FUSION 2026 on The Ravit Show. The theme this year is "Where AI meets ROI," and I wanted to know why they're putting that line on the main stage right now.

We got into a lot:

- How to explain Cartographer and a "map of how the business runs" to a CFO who only cares about ROI

- Marketing agentic AI when every vendor is using the same words

- Why governance took so much of the keynote, with Runtime Checker and Compliance Packs, and whether trust now sells better than speed

- The value stories customers are actually sharing

- How the brand has moved from RPA leader to agentic automation company

- Why UiPath opened up to Claude Code, Cursor and Codex with Coding Agents instead of pushing only its own

The part that stuck with me was the CFO question. Every AI conversation ends up there. Michael had a clear way of connecting the Map of Work back to the numbers a finance leader wants to see.

What's the hardest part of selling AI inside your company right now?

I just sat down with Rajesh Ganesan, CEO of ManageEngine on The Ravit Show, to talk about what happens after a breach. ManageEngine surveyed 700 IT and security leaders across the US and Canada. Every one of them had been through a breach or incident.

Here is what stood out:

- 91% are confident in their security posture. Yet 33% believe a major breach is inevitable.

- Only 8% make security a permanent priority after a breach. 80% say the urgency fades within 1 to 6 months.

- 44% made no structural or strategic change after their latest incident.

- 90% say business priorities take precedence over security.

- 84% say employees report mistakes quickly. But 83% say fear of blame still shapes how incidents are handled.

- Then there is AI. 67% act on AI recommendations without extra verification, and 55% say AI has made them more willing to accept cyber risk.

In our conversation, Rajesh shares how leaders can keep security a priority once the pressure is off, why ownership matters, and when a human should step in on AI-driven decisions.

If you lead IT or security, this one is worth your time.

Thank you Rajesh Ganesan and the ManageEngine team for the great conversation.

Banks don't need more AI demos. They need agents they can actually trust in production. At Dreamforce, Ravit Jain had a chat with Jyoti Chaudhary, Global Head of Salesforce Practice at Altimetrik, to talk about what that takes.

A few things that stood out:

Altimetrik has a full 360 relationship with Salesforce. They sell to Salesforce, for Salesforce, and with Salesforce, from joint product innovation to services integration.

The big theme this year is data first. Automation, semantic layers, agent creation and Salesforce showing up inside Slack and cloud environments all sit on that foundation.

For BFSI clients, Altimetrik starts with workshops to set KPIs and a roadmap before any agent goes live.

Every agent has to be grounded, monitored, governed, compliant and auditable. In regulated industries that is the price of entry.

The use cases are practical. Onboarding, KYC, claims and servicing.

The payoff is a full customer view for relationship managers, which means better insight and more cross-sell and upsell opportunities.

You can find more of their thinking on the Altimetrik website and LinkedIn page.

Thank you Jyoti for the great conversation.

Only 17% of enterprise executives say they have clear clarity on their AI strategy!!!! That is from a survey of 500 leaders at Global 2000 companies. I spoke at Dreamforce with David Cushman, Executive Research Leader at HFS Research, and Gurvinder Singh Sahni, CMO at Altimetrik on The Ravit Show, to talk about what that gap actually looks like!!!!

What we covered:

- The shift at Dreamforce itself. Service providers used to dominate the floor. This year the attention moved to AI labs, AI infrastructure, and the interaction layer. Dario Amodei and Jensen Huang were in the room.

- Enterprise leaders are still confused about pricing models, and there is a real distance between where most companies are today and where Salesforce's vision sits.

- The legacy problem nobody wants to talk about. If your digital transformation is half finished, you cannot layer advanced AI on top of it. The foundation has to get sorted first.

- The theme of this phase is the harness. Control, governance, cost management, protecting enterprise margins. Making sure AI delivers results safely.

- Human at the helm, rather than human in the loop. David's point stayed with me. In the loop puts the human under the machine's control. At the helm means the human directs, decides, brings creativity, and stays accountable. Salesforce's responsible AI work uses the same framing.

Advice for leaders from both of them:

David said leaders have to use these tools themselves, daily. Without hands on experience you cannot see where AI actually fits in your organization.

Gurvinder said the same from the practitioner side. Equip your own teams first with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini. You cannot authentically guide clients on something you have not done yourself.

And the goal is augmentation. Efficiency per person, revenue per employee, human capability extended rather than swapped out.

Thank you David and Gurvinder for a great conversation.

DREAMFORCE last week was a blast!!!! Most AI agent projects fail for the same reason. The foundation was not ready. That came through clearly in my Dreamforce conversation with Jyoti Chaudhary, Global Head of Salesforce Practice at Altimetrik, and Jeff Sneeringer, Service Delivery Director at Huntington National Bank.

What we covered:

- Salesforce is unifying its AI strategy across the ecosystem, pushing AI into Cloud, Slack, and Microsoft Teams so it sits inside the conversations people are already having.

- Regulated industries are moving away from custom code. Banks want turnkey configurations they can stand up fast and see value from, for customers and for internal teams.

- Salesforce is shifting from a system of engagement and record to a system of action and intelligence. Agentic capabilities, agentic frameworks in Marketing Cloud, and developer efficiency through Cloud Code.

- On deployment, Jyoti made the case for a phased approach. Get the data layer, automated workflows, and semantic layer right first. Understand your business processes and KPIs before you build an agentic roadmap.

2 pieces of advice for leaders:

Prepare for headless and omnichannel. Surface your tools wherever people work, simplify the workload, and chase ROI over cost savings.

Take responsible AI engineering seriously. Your practitioners need to understand compliance, regulation, and what sustainable looks like as this moves fast.

Thank you Jyoti and Jeff for a great conversation.
