Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Inside Mercury's Founding Story | Co-Founder & CEO Immad Akhund
Q: What challenges do legacy banks face that Mercury has been able to navigate more effectively?
Immad notes the deposit side is cost-centric for banks, with thousands of branches and IT-driven architectures rather than product-building engineering teams, making it hard for incumbents to move as quickly as Mercury in adopting new capabilities.
Inside Mercury's Founding Story | Co-Founder & CEO Immad Akhund
Q: How does Mercury approach product development at scale, especially with AI features?
He outlines alpha testing, slow rollouts, small dedicated teams for net-new features, and the importance of building AI features that stay tightly integrated with Mercury's core workflows, including user-facing dashboards and internal tools, while maintaining human oversight where needed.
Inside Mercury's Founding Story | Co-Founder & CEO Immad Akhund
Q: What made this moment feel like a good time to fundraise again, and how long did the process take?
Immad explains that Mercury benefited from inbound interest and a favorable market for fintech, describing a relatively quick process driven by existing momentum and the desire to capitalize on a higher valuation while continuing to hire and invest in growth.
Inside Gusto's Founding Story | Co-Founder & CTO Eddie Kim
Q: What is the Cofounder concept and why is it embedded in the product?
Cofounder is an AI-powered assistant designed to be your partner in running the business, drawing on Gusto's extensive customer data to give proactive guidance and automate tasks, effectively acting as a literal cofounder within the platform.
Inside Gusto's Founding Story | Co-Founder & CTO Eddie Kim
Q: How did the co-founder dynamic form and sustain itself over 15 years?
The trio built a deep, trust-based relationship, shared values like family and doing right by customers, and maintained open, direct communication that allowed disagreements to strengthen rather than erode the partnership.
