Ep 6 - Your AI Is Only as Smart as Your Mess

from In the Loop with Holly & Angi · host Angi Milano & Holly Glowaty

In this episode, Angi and Holly sit down with Neal Mann, co-founder of Noan, to talk about the part of AI most companies keep avoiding: their foundation.   Neal explains why layering AI on top of broken systems does not work, why documents were never meant to be the backbone of modern businesses, and why facts should be the true system of record. Together, they unpack how clean, connected data changes marketing, sales alignment, compliance, content, and customer trust.   They also explore human-in-the-loop AI, single sources of truth, financial institution realities, and what founders should prioritize if they want to scale without creating more complexity.   This episode is a reminder that AI does not fix chaos; it exposes it.   Learn more about Noan here: getnoan.link/thegtmloop   Expect straight talk, practical advice, and the occasional hair flip. If you're building, selling, or scaling in fintech and beyond, this is the GTM podcast you'll actually want to listen to.   Sell it. Keep it. Grow it.
