About this listen
In this episode of SaaS Founder Stories, I sit down with Paul Culvenor, co-founder and CEO of Hevi, to talk about what it actually means to build an AI-native company — not just ship AI features.
Hevi is rethinking how software companies operate: Cursor for dev, Gemini for meeting summaries, GPT for strategy, and AI workflows embedded into marketing and finance. From prototyping to board planning, AI isn’t just helping — it’s doing the work.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
→ Hevi uses AI across product, GTM, and internal ops
→ They prototype entire features using Cursor, Copilot, and Replit
→ Strategic decisions are modeled with GPT Projects
→ Internal documentation and BD research are fully AI-augmented
→ They run lean, move fast, and avoid legacy drag
SOUND BITES
→ "We’re not bolting on AI — we’re building with it from day one."
→ "Our internal GPT gives better strategy feedback than some advisors."
→ "AI agents won’t support operations. They’ll become operations."
→ "This isn’t SaaS anymore. It’s services as software."
This episode is a tactical deep dive for any founder trying to build fast, ship lean, and unlock AI at the company level. Subscribe to SaaS Founder Stories wherever you listen.
