  • Getting AI-Ready with Reliable Data (Barr Moses)
    Jun 28 2025

    Everyone is talking about building AI agents. But is your foundation even ready?

    In this episode, Andreas Welsch speaks with Barr Moses, CEO of Monte Carlo, about the hidden risks behind the push for Agentic AI and what business leaders are missing when they rush to scale.

    Barr shares what she’s hearing from data and AI leaders: The majority is building or deploying AI this year, but only 1 in 3 believe their data is ready, and even few have a reliable way to ensure agent outputs are correct.

    What does that mean for your AI roadmap? A strong model or prompt isn’t enough. If the data is wrong, the agent’s action will be wrong and in some cases, costly. From AI chatbots selling cars for $1 to data platforms returning flawed recommendations, the risks are real.

    Barr also breaks down three areas data and AI teams must prioritize:

    • Productivity by using AI to accelerate their own workflows
    • Readiness to build a foundation of high-quality, trustworthy data
    • Realiability by ensuring AI agents produce outputs that align with business goals


    If you’re working on an AI strategy or are leading teams expected to deliver on it, this conversation makes the case for why AI success is built upon operational readiness.

  • Strategies for Product-Led Growth of AI Agents (Leah Tharin)
    Jun 14 2025

    Is your company ready to realize the true potential of AI agents or just riding the hype train?

    In this episode, host Andreas Welsch sits down with Leah Tharin, an expert in product-led growth, to discuss how businesses can effectively use AI agents to transform their operations and drive success. Leah shares her insights on the complexities of integrating AI solutions into existing workflows, the importance of understanding customer success, and the challenges of pricing and positioning AI products.

    Discover the critical shift companies need to make from siloed solutions to cross-functional strategies to unlock the real value of AI:

    • Understand the existing challenges within your customer’s data environment. By demonstrating how your AI agents can streamline processes across departments, you can earn crucial buy-in and trust.
    • Align monetization with customer success to avoid pricing structures that deter potential users. Instead, create transparent models that align your success with your customers', fostering sustainable relationships.
    • Embrace a cross-functional mindset, break down departmental silos and showcase your solution as a holistic tool that enhances overall company efficiency.

    These strategies can transform how you approach AI sales and lead your organization into the future.
