Most AI teams are flying blind - they can show you how many people used their AI, but not whether it actually worked.

In this conversation, host Johannes Deubener sits down with Julien Roux, CRO and co-founder of Nebuly (the “Google Analytics for AI”) to unpack what relevant AI Analytics look like.

They explore why treating AI like traditional software (“build it, ship it, forget it”) is a fundamental mistake, and why AI needs to be managed as a living product: launched, observed, and continuously improved based on how people actually use it. Julien explains how most companies still rely on shallow metrics - logins, number of prompts, session duration - and why those can be dangerously misleading. In conversational AI, more usage can mean more frustration, not more value.

In this episode, host Johannes Deubener meets Reddy Mallidi, a Silicon Valley Expert in Enterprise AI and AI Agents. Reddy discusses the significance of aligning AI initiatives with tangible business outcomes, cautioning against the allure of chasing 'shiny objects' without a clear purpose. Reddy also highlights the role of AI agents in transforming business processes, advocating for a strategic approach to selecting AI use cases that deliver quick wins and long-term value.

The conversation delves into the human aspect of AI, where Reddy draws parallels between his aunt's storytelling skills and the need for effective communication in AI. He stresses the importance of building trust between humans and AI agents, ensuring that AI enhances rather than replaces human capabilities. Reddy also addresses the complexities of integrating AI into existing workflows, emphasizing the need for transparency and collaboration to foster a successful human-agent partnership. We conclude with insights on measuring AI success and evaluating the evolving AI vendor landscape.
