KEY TAKEAWAYS
The three core areas are: Advanced company research use cases, long-form information extraction and complex data analysis.
You can use these use cases for big clients and smaller customers.
Research that would take half an hour to do manually can be done almost instantly and it will be of higher quality than you could manage manually. 
You can use Claude to digest and break down long-form content such as research papers.
The more context you can provide to Claude, the more specific and curated answers it will give you.

BEST MOMENTS

"These three examples are tied to non-specific AI use cases that I’ve used previously”

“This is basically an AI research paper”

“We have gone through 8 years of innovation in 4 months”

“There are so many use cases within business and within life that you could leverage this for”

The Hidden Power of Claude 3: The Business Uses 99% Missed

Ryan Staley sits down with Sankar Sundaresan, CEO and founder of Sky Geni, an AI-native company revolutionizing pipeline management for tech companies. Sankar shares invaluable insights on common mistakes CROs make, the importance of explainable AI in predicting pipeline yield, and how to align demand generation efforts with recent market traction.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Sky Genie is a growth acceleration platform helping revenue teams drive efficient and predictable growth by reverse-engineering pipeline needs and providing a GPS-like system for planning and course correction.
The biggest mistake CROs make is relying on rules of thumb for pipeline requirements without considering past execution data and the importance of having enough capacity to create and convert pipelines within the quarter.
Explainable AI mimics the judgement process of experienced CROs, capturing their expertise in ML models trained against past performance data to provide accurate pipeline yield predictions.
Aligning demand generation efforts with recent positive market traction in specific vertical segments, products, and geographies can significantly improve win rates and revenue growth.
Continuously tweaking the pipeline generation machine based on recent win-loss data is crucial for capitalizing on tailwinds and addressing competitive challenges.
A two-step approach to pipeline generation by identifying the most promising segment/vertical/geo/product combinations and then determining the best channels for those combinations leads to more efficient and targeted efforts.
AI is best applied to high-level, critical questions like predicting pipeline yield and identifying opportunities at risk of slipping based on conversational intelligence data.
Sky Genie focuses on giving CROs the tools to develop high-confidence, long-term pipeline plans that set them up for success, rather than just chasing current quarter deals.

BEST MOMENTS

"The single biggest mistake is just relying on rules of thumb. Like I need three X pipeline. I need four X pipeline because you'll be amazed at, you know, how many jobs we've seen dropping to the ground when we actually show them." 

"I think there's a huge opportunity to align where we're building pipeline with where sales teams are actually able to win as evidenced, not by people doing research on 6sense and things like that." 

"Instead of making it a one-step answer, it's really a two-step answer. You solve for it one step at a time, and therefore you get to a better, more efficient way of generating the right kind of pipe, using the right channels for exactly the type of pipe you need to generate." 

"If all you're doing is just chasing current quarter deals, I think you're just setting yourself up for failure, right?"

"We're in a hype cycle. We're about to get the first taste of companies that had no product and revenue that raised over 100 million that are going to go out of business because there's no traction."

KEY TAKEAWAYS
AI is a generational technology, potentially bigger than the internet, but currently in a massive hype cycle similar to the dot-com era.
Most current AI ideas are basic integrations into existing workflows, not reimagining the workflow, and are likely to be disrupted.
Joining an AI company now provides valuable experience, even if 90% fail, as the winners will scoop up experienced talent.
The AI technology creating operational efficiency in the short term may not be the same as the disruptors redefining industries over the next decade.
Understanding prompting, the foundation of AI language is crucial for developing micro-workflows, agents, and eventually autonomous swarms.
The innovator's dilemma and appropriate beachhead selection are key concepts for AI startups to consider when building for the long-term vision.
RevOps, once seen as supporting humans, may flip to AI doing the job with humans tweaking and refining.
Technical issues like hallucinations and latency will likely be ironed out as the technology matures, revealing AI's true potential.

BEST MOMENTS

"I've never had more conviction for my students that come up to me. Like, 'Hey, what's up? Professor, like what, what should I do? Like, I want to be, I want to go into startups. Like, what should I do?' And I, I've always had like different opinions. I was like, do you have to go to AI? Like every tech company is going to, in like six years is going to be native AI. You have to get that experience now." 

"I think all the tea leaves are similar to like 1997. Let's not forget that in that time, we dialled up to the internet using AOL, launched a Netscape browser and did searches through AltaVista, right? Where are those companies? Lycos, right? Is, is, is, yeah, is OpenAI Netscape or is it Google? Like we got to figure that out, right?" 

"The AI technology that's going to create significant operational efficiency and growth this year and next for companies, especially these bigger companies that my CROs are from is not going to be the trillion dollar new company that disrupts the space." 

"I've kind of come to the conclusion that the AI companies, vendors, technology that is going to create the most operational efficiency, even for our start-ups in the next year is not going to be the same AI technology company, et cetera, that becomes the disruptor over the next decade and redefines the sales and martech sector." 

"RevOps has become huge, didn't even exist 15 years ago. And for the most part, RevOps is seen as an organization that supports the humans to do their job. And that flips with what you're saying. Is, at some point, it flips where RevOps does the job and humans there to tweak it."
