Watch our exclusive interview with Keith Peiris, Co-Founder and CEO of Lightfield.

This is a story of what #entrepreneurship is all about—from the team that built Tome to 25M users in just two years, and is now tackling the #CRM space with Lightfield.

We began by discussing how Keith communicated this pivot to #investors, and more broadly, when is the right time to #pivot and focus on the real problem. In Lightfield’s case, it’s about giving #AI the right context to take #CRM to the next level.

We then explored how Lightfield is adjusting its #GTM strategy to take on CRM’s big #incumbents — showing how a 20-person team can ship #features #faster than companies with 20,000, and even going door-to-door to demonstrate what a modern #SMB-focused CRM looks like.

Finally, we discussed how Lightfield balances automation with #augmentation in the #AI era, how they leverage #proprietary customer data while ensuring privacy, and how they prioritize which AI models to use.

And where does Keith get his best #ideas? 💡🚴‍♂️🛣️
