In this episode of One of One, Darren speaks with Jarek Kutylowski, founder and CEO of DeepL.

DeepL is a pioneering AI company serving hundreds of thousands of businesses around the world. Born in Poland and raised between Poland and Germany, Jarek experienced firsthand the challenges and beauty of bridging languages and cultures. Trained as a computer scientist, he saw early on how AI could transform communication, and he spent the past eight years building DeepL into a global leader in applied AI. DeepL achieved market dominance as a startup in a category that could easily have been owned by the large technology incumbents, and Jarek offers a masterclass in strategic counter positioning. He's evolved DeepL’s culture as it scaled, preserving its research roots while becoming a global commercial powerhouse. And now Jarek's leading DeepL into its second act, a courageous expansion beyond language translation into the broader world of agentic AI.
