Скачать или смотреть GTM 30 | AI That Acts: Bridging Reasoning and Execution with Harsha Gaddipati (CEO, Slashy)

In this episode of GTM Vault, host Rick Koleta sits down with Harsha Gaddipati — founder & CEO of Slashy.ai (YC S25), a company giving AI real-world “hands” by turning natural language prompts into real actions across Gmail, Notion, and Slack.

Slashy isn’t another chat interface. It’s a bridge between reasoning and execution — transforming AI from a passive assistant into an active operator that gets work done. Built with reliability and speed in mind, Slashy helps teams automate workflows instantly, without code or configuration, and embed automation directly where users already work.

We discuss why AI reasoning without execution is just text, how to design automation that unfolds naturally, and why dependability beats novelty when building AI-native products people can’t live without.
