How AI Tools for Supply Chain Saved This Manufacturer $7M Per Plant

AI tools for SaaS founders are everywhere, but Paul's company is doing something most AI vendors can't touch: reading 3D models the way software reads text. Featuring Paul, CEO of FISNA, the company behind AI-powered 3D search technology, saving automotive manufacturers $7M per year per plant and cutting U.S. Air Force parts costs by over 90%.
