College Dropout Builds $30M Startup While Fighting Cancer | Jenni AI David Park
Today's story is about David Park, the CEO of Jenni AI. Jenni AI is a service that uses AI to help researchers and graduate students conducting academic research to quickly and easily find information and even generate citations. After its launch, it has successfully attracted 2 million users worldwide and has been growing at a rate of 15% per month, reaching a current Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) of $3 million.
His eightyear startup journey wasn't smooth sailing. He happened to meet an investor on a plane who invested in his idea, prompting David to drop out of university and start his own startup. However, what seemed promising quickly turned into failure. He went on to start new ventures but encountered failure again, not once but twice more. When interviewing entrepreneurs, you often sense a certain desperation, and it seems the more desperate they sound, the tougher their inner resilience feels. This story is a bit more raw and honest compared to others. Let's meet David in the video.
