Description

Is the American Dream still alive in the age of AI?
In this episode of The Founder's Code, Raghu Gollamudi shares his journey from Chennai to Microsoft to building Included.ai - a platform using AI to give companies real insight into their workforce.

We talk about the early spark behind his pre-Tinder app Mingles, the pivot that followed George Floyd’s murder, and why he nearly gave up in year one. What kept him going? His team’s belief.

You’ll learn:

  • Why customer pain matters more than their requests

  • How AI is lowering the cost to build and ship

  • The hiring test Raghu swears by: first 15 days

  • Why empathy and trust beat features in enterprise sales

  • How Included helps companies avoid talent blind spots

This one’s for builders chasing long-term impact - especially those who’ve had to fight for their seat at the table.
