You’ve Got Mail… & AI - Warmy.io Founder Daniel Shnaider
In this episode of The Power Connect, host Fred Davis sits down with Daniel Schnaider, the mind behind Wormy.io and its sophisticated AI engine, Adeline. Daniel shares his unique journey from serving in the Israeli military to revolutionizing email deliverability. They dive deep into the philosophy of solving real problems, the rapid evolution of machine learning, and the inevitable shift AI is causing in the modern workforce.
The "Waze" Connection: Daniel discusses how a chance two-week meeting with the son of the founder of Waze changed his entire career trajectory and inspired him to build a software company rather than taking a stable corporate job.
The Philosophy of Problem Solving: Inspired by Uri Levine’s philosophy, Daniel emphasizes the importance of "falling in love with the problem, not the solution" to create truly impactful technology.
The Birth of Adeline: Daniel explains how they built Adeline, a machine learning engine designed to manage millions of data points to optimize email deliverability—a problem no one else was solving effectively.
The Reality of AI Displacement: Daniel shares a candid look at how his own company has transitioned, including the difficult reality of letting go of staff whose roles were automated by AI in favor of hiring "no-code" automation experts.
What Makes a Company Win: Despite the tech surge, Daniel argues that the winners of the future won't just have the best technology, but the best human connection: marketing, brand awareness, and genuine customer support.
