The rules of B2B software are being rewritten. The AI platform shift isn't coming — it's here. And the founders who understand it earliest will build the companies that define the next decade. The AI Revolution Show is the intelligence podcast for B2B software founders navigating that shift. Every episode, host Alex Theuma sits down in person with the founders living through it — the SaaS operators rebuilding their businesses for the AI era, and the AI-native builders who never looked back. No PR polish. No rehearsed talking points. Just honest, field-level conversations about what's actually working, what's breaking, and where software goes from here.

Burning the Brand: Inside Intercom's Bet to Become Fin.ai — Des Traynor

Épisode 8

jeudi 11 juin 2026 • Durée 45:26

Alex Theuma sits down with Des Traynor, co-founder of Fin (formerly Intercom), fresh from their complete rebrand around their AI agent that's already generating over $100 million in revenue.

Des walks through the brutal calculus of retiring a billion-dollar brand, why he believes all legacy SaaS will need rebuilding from scratch, and the technical reality behind Fin's 70% resolution rate. From 27 interconnected AI systems to the collapse of traditional product team structures, this is the inside story of a platform shift in real time.

In this episode, we explore:

(03:17) Why Intercom's original pricing decisions nearly killed customer loyalty

(04:43) The moment Des knew they'd hit product-market fit

(06:37) Why Fin needed a separate identity from Intercom

(09:27) The grief process of retiring a billion-dollar brand name

(11:07) Des's test for AI-native vs AI-wrapped products

(16:11) When Claude's artifacts convinced him software would change forever

(20:18) Why technical debt is just a cope for legacy companies

(24:36) What "70% resolution rate" actually means for Fin

(26:08) How AI flipped their product-first culture to technology-first

(31:05) Why AI sales now require four-week bake-offs

(32:31) The genuinely hard problems that aren't waiting for GPT-6

The AI Revolution Show is the intelligence podcast for B2B software founders navigating the platform shift, the founders building through it, and the founders already on the other side. Hosted by Alex Theuma, founder of Shift AI Events. Subscribe so you don't miss the next episode.

Ben Douablin on Product-Led Growth vs. Enterprise Sales: Full Enrich's Path from Bootstrap to 10M ARR

Épisode 7

jeudi 4 juin 2026 • Durée 26:06

What happens when a founder with "long sales cycle PTSD" builds a company designed for AI agents from day one? Ben Douablin pivoted from a struggling sales commission platform to FullEnrich, reaching 10 million ARR in under 24 months with usage-based pricing and zero traditional sales tactics.

Alex Theuma sits down with Ben Douablin, CEO of FullEnrich, a data enrichment platform serving over 25 vendors to sales teams and AI agents globally. Ben reveals how he built an influencer-led go-to-market strategy using 50 LinkedIn content creators, why he optimised for end users instead of decision makers, and how FullEnrich positioned itself as data infrastructure for the agent economy before most founders realised agents were buying software seats.

In this episode, we explore:

(02:36) Ben's failed sales commission startup and painful pivot

(06:19) Why FullEnrich chose data aggregation over ownership

(08:53) Building usage-based pricing for AI agents from launch

Make's AI-First DNA: Samurai Owners, 70% Impact Projects, and Doubling Revenue Per Employee

Épisode 6

jeudi 28 mai 2026 • Durée 17:15

Most SaaS companies talk about AI transformation, but few have actually restructured their entire operation around it. Sara Maldon, Head of Internal AI at Make, started leading their transformation three years ago when "there was no such thing as AI transformation."

In this conversation with Alex Theuma, Sara breaks down Make's approach to becoming AI-first from the inside out, including their "samurai" system where full-time AI champions are embedded in every department, their mandate to double revenue with the same headcount, and why she believes traditional companies have the biggest opportunity to gain competitive advantage right now.

She shares practical insights on getting leadership buy-in, the tools powering their operations, and why every founder needs to think like an orchestrator managing AI agents rather than just adding AI features to their product.

In this episode, we explore:

(00:36) From lawyer to cybersecurity to AI transformation leader

(01:52) Make's visual platform for building operations without code

(04:02) Starting AI transformation before it had a name

(05:18) The "samurai" system: full-time AI champions everywhere

(06:31) Doubling revenue with the same headcount through AI

(08:00) Beyond drinking your own champagne: the tools

(08:55) Creative applications of Gamma's presentation API

(09:49) Why traditional companies have the biggest opportunity

(11:19) Top-down vs. bottom-up: what actually works

(12:17) Sara's personal AI stack for unpredictable work

(13:52) Practical first steps for 5M ARR founders

(15:36) The future: orchestrating agents, not doing tasks

Inside Fathom's Platform Play: Richard White on Data Assets vs. Software Liabilities

Épisode 5

jeudi 21 mai 2026 • Durée 19:41

What happens when transcription costs drop from £3 an hour to nearly zero and AI can write better meeting notes than any human? Alex Theuma sits down with Richard White, CEO and founder of Fathom, the AI meeting system used by thousands of teams to automatically capture, transcribe, and summarise their calls. Fathom has built a viral growth engine around a simple insight: everyone hates taking notes, but only managers will pay for meeting intelligence.

Richard shares how they built "the chassis" first and waited for AI to become the engine, why they abandoned building internal AI tools in favour of smart vendor selection, and his contrarian advice for established SaaS founders: fork your company rather than bolt on AI as a feature.

In this episode, we explore:

(01:19) What Fathom does and the meeting note-taking problem

(01:57) Building from a personal pain point at his previous startup

(03:21) Starting with hypotheses about where AI was heading

(04:46) The viral growth loop and network effects strategy

Épisode 4

jeudi 14 mai 2026 • Durée 18:59

Marty Kausas is the CEO and founder of Pylon, the AI-native customer support platform built specifically for B2B companies. Pylon serves customers like HiTouch and has driven growth from zero to millions in ARR through unconventional strategies like LinkedIn storytelling and conference quota systems.

Marty shares why his 30-person engineering team, using Cursor and Claude, achieved a 40% productivity lift (not the 4X everyone expects), why he started the company "purely for fun" with a goal of hitting $1 billion in revenue in under 10 years, and why he's sceptical of the vibe coding trend.

(01:32) Why most conference strategies fail completely

(02:43) Setting aggressive demo quotas and working backwards

(05:00) What Pylon does for B2B customer support

jeudi 7 mai 2026 • Durée 33:24

Most SaaS founders reach for equity by default, even for costs that debt could cover in nine months. In this episode of The AI Revolution Show, Alex Theuma sits down with Paul Becker, co-founder and CEO of re:cap, the debt-funding platform helping SaaS founders raise capital without giving up equity. Paul breaks down the emotional cost of bad funding decisions, why gross margins still matter more than AI hype, and the two moments AI genuinely changed how his own team works, including one that turned a week of junior research into two hours and a good prompt.

In this episode, we explore:

(00:29) What re:cap actually does for SaaS founders needing capital

(02:01) The accidental origin story behind re:cap

(03:21) Bootstrapped vs VC-backed: why re:cap chose venture capital

Roy shares the bold strategic pivots Monday.com is making to survive the AI platform shift. We explore why they're now letting AI agents buy seats on their platform, how they've fundamentally changed their company vision from "managing work" to "doing work," and the critical difference between adding AI features versus building AI-native products.
