Daring to Think Differently About AI Will Lead to Real Outcomes

Vantaca is bringing AI innovation to an industry in desperate need of disruption - community management or HOAs. Vantaca CEO, Ben Currin joins Trisha Price in this episode of Hard Calls and talks about how Vantaca is wrapping AI and agentic workflows into traditional SaaS software to improve the way we work with each other and agents.

Product leaders from any industry will gain great insights into how to think differently about their AI projects. You’ll hear about the lessons learned when the team goes all in on letting go of old mindsets, processes, and sunk costs to create a scalable AI strategy that anyone can benefit from.

Ben shares how an acquisition made Vantaca’s AI vision take hold and scale its AI roadmap. You’ll also be surprised to hear his story about how understanding the basics of a car, such as the steering wheel and brakes, is the same thinking that product managers should apply to create a great user experience, and the three things he does to balance these two priorities.
The two also discuss the benefits Vantaca has gained by becoming product-led and how staying close to the customer allows them to develop and iterate better products using some fun new AI tools.
