Notorious POD: Rayse and Industry Challenges w/ James and Christian Dwiggins

More than a product demo; a conversation with startup founders on the challenges of the industry going forward.

Let’s start with disclosures. I am on Rayse’s advisory board, and have a small interest in Rayse. I helped James and Christian with the idea, and am personally involved.

I thought it worth having this discussion with James and Christian because the product they developed tackles a couple of really key challenges in the industry looking ahead. Yet, I couldn’t think of a way to talk about Rayse and what it does, because it’s somewhat unique. I figured, why not let the founders show off what they built, but perhaps more importantly, why they built it.

They saw an opportunity, because they see that the industry will face massive challenges in the aftermath of Sitzer and everything else going on. The shift is real and it is happening.

We discuss those challenges, as well as Rayse itself, how it came about, what it does, and why that’s important.
