Welcome to Grovara – The Leading Global B2B Wholesale Marketplace!In this episode of the GroDega Podcast, Peter sits down with Vidur Bhatnagar, Grovara’s CTO, to unpack the technology behind Grovara 3.0 and the launch of Scout AI, the platform’s integrated AI copilot for global trade.Vitor explains how Scout AI lets users chat directly with the Grovara platform to ask about orders, products, marketplace fit, compliance, landing costs, and product recommendations. Unlike a general chatbot, Scout AI understands the page you are on, the product you are viewing, the marketplace context, and the permissions tied to your account.The conversation also covers how Grovara uses OpenAI, Google Gemini, large language models, AI-native search, and platform data to make global trade faster, smarter, and more accessible. Vitor shares how a feature that once would have taken 6 to 8 weeks was built in just 3.5 hours, and how Grovara 3.0 moved from a 15 to 18 month build into a 5 month launch.You will also hear Vitor’s background as an Ivy League dropout, robotics student at Penn, former Amazon product leader, national-level basketball player in India, and builder of 14 full-stack SaaS products.
