Agenda
eChai is hosting the AI x SaaS Founders Meetup for builders who are curious about how artificial intelligence is shaping the future of software-as-a-service. The session will bring together founders, operators, and product leaders to share how AI is being used in SaaS products, from customer support and workflow tools to new business ideas. It will be a chance to hear real stories and practical insights from people building in this space.
The discussions will focus on real experiences of building and scaling AI-driven SaaS. From creating new product features and getting customers to adopt them to solving technical challenges and raising funds, participants will get useful lessons that they can apply to their own journey.
The eChai meetup is also about building meaningful connections. Founders will get to meet peers who are working on similar challenges, exchange learnings, and explore opportunities to work together. If you are building, investing in, or simply curious about AI x SaaS, this is the place to be.
