93. M7 Innovations' Founder Matt Maher: "Search behavior is evolving rapidly."
Update: 2025-11-11
Description
Four years in tech feels like sixty, so I sat down with Matt Maher, Founder of M7 Innovations, to catch up on what’s really happening in the world of AI and retail innovation.
From agentic browsing and spatial computing to wearables like the Meta Ray-Bans, Snap Spectacles, and Apple Vision Pro, we explored the tools shaping how consumers discover and shop. Matt breaks down the difference between AI hype and real impact, why Reddit and Wikipedia are becoming key data sources for search, and how brands can win in an AI-first world by investing in authority over ads.
You can also watch the full conversation on YouTube to see the gadgets we tested in action.
