S10 Bonus: Moving Beyond Scratch-Built Apps and Using AI to Assemble Enterprise Software from Pre-Validated Modules with Anand Kulkarni, Founder & CEO of Crowdbotics
Jan 15, 2025 · Season 10 · 23 min
Legacy codebases can now be modernized with AI.
Anand Kulkarni started his career in the dark ages of AI, as a Computer Science researcher at UC Berkeley. He published papers on human intelligence inside of software products, and eventually founded LeadGenius, which was AI for sales and was supported by Andreessen Horowitz and Sam Altman. Outside of tech, he is married with 2 kids, and used to be an avid rock climber. He also loves to eat tofu, and has been picking up a lot more science fiction lately.
Though the AI space is crowded today, Anand and his team have been working in the space since 2016. They observed the need to modernize legacy software and digitally transform organizations. They wanted to utilize an intelligent approach to this, and started down the path of building a large dataset, building software to learn from it, and use that to modernize software.
This is the creation story of Crowdbotics.
