Daniel Vassilev is the Co-Founder of Relevance AI, a tech startup that gives businesses artificial intelligence super powers using a no-code AI platform and focussing on unstructured data (e.g. text, pictures, video, audio).

When he was in high school, Daniel built an app in 1 week that allowed users to listen to YouTube music in the background. The app had 1 million users in just over two years. When PokemonGo was at its peak popularity, Daniel built an app that located Pokemons. That hit 4 million users in just two months.

In this episode, you’ll hear Daniel’s guiding principle for validating ideas; how a conversation with a friend at a high school party led to a long-lasting co-Founder relationship and how he managed to successfully raise $3M, without it taking him away from the day-to-day business of Relevance AI.
