From Spreadsheets to AI Agents: The Ecommerce Data Playbook

from OPERATORS · host Sean Frank, Mike Beckham, Matt Bertulli, and Jason Panzer

Are you running your ecommerce brand on gut instinct while your competitors build AI-powered data machines? Sean Frank (CEO of Ridge) and Jason Panzer (President of HexClad) sit down with Krishna Poda, the CEO of Saras Analytics, to unpack why a clean data foundation isn’t optional. And what you can build on top of it with AI right now. They cover the rise of agentic workflows and what it means to replace repetitive human tasks with agents that work around the clock, why every stakeholder in a business should be able to query their own data without waiting on an analyst, how Saras IQ is built as a vertically specialized layer on top of Claude to deliver consistent and governed answers, and what the near future looks like when your brand’s central agent is negotiating with Meta’s agent, Northbeam’s agent, and every other platform fighting for your budget.
