Kroolo The Only Productivity Tool You Will Ever Need:
I have gotten to know the Kroolo team fairly well over this last month or so and been impressed by how they have thought through and executed on their tech.
FYI, I am not an advisor, nor am paid for this post, I just think the tech is amazing.
As someone who's constantly testing new tech (and I want to be clear - this isn't a paid promotion!), I was genuinely impressed by what Shashank Singh (Founder/CEO), Katie Wade (Head of Product), and my "bald brother" Steven MacNeil (Founding AE) have built over the last year.
What sets them apart? They've created an AI-native platform that's actually language model agnostic - meaning if OpenAI goes down, they can switch to Google's LLMs or others seamlessly OR they leverage the best LLM for the task required. It's like having multiple AI engines under one hood, all working together to supercharge your productivity.
Key Highlight Moments:
• Discovery that Kroolo reduces team meetings by 60% through intelligent AI agents
• Discussion of how true AI-native architecture differs from "bolt-on" AI solutions
• Revelation about their platform-agnostic approach to LLMs (OpenAI, Google, etc.)
• Insight into how they're tackling AI bias in productivity tools
• Preview of their upcoming agent-focused framework and rebranding
• Real-world impact on reducing implementation time from days to hours
Notable Quotes:
Katie Wade:
"Almost think we're at a space now where if it's not as easy as pulling your iPhone out of an iPhone box, turning it on and just intuitively understanding how to work it, people just don't want to do it anymore."
"It's the collaboration because you probably would have agonized over three sentences. And if you run it as AI, here's the three different ways you could say it."
Shashank Singh:
"We will reduce the number of meetings by 60 percent... the platform is intelligent enough where agents could be trained and deployed. And whatever you normally ask these questions in traditional stand ups and meetings, those could be answered by pre-trained, co-piloted agents."
"If somebody is not betting on agentic, I think making it some serious problem for looking through. The future is agentic."
Steve McNeil:
"You're only going to establish the right ROI model if you can actually utilize the technology effectively and quickly... that's the one thing that really resonates with me."
I thoroughly enjoyed talking to the team and think you will enjoy it.
