Summary
My guest this week is James McCormick, CEO of Cloudastructure (Nasdaq: CSAI), an AI-powered video surveillance and remote guarding company out of Palo Alto, California. Here's a question worth sitting with: what if security didn't just record crim,e what if it actually stopped it? That's the premise behind Cloudastructure, and in 2025 the market started paying attention in a big way. Revenue grew 271% to $5.1 million. Total contract value jumped 342%. Gross profit was up 304%. Six of the ten largest property management companies in the US are now customers. Not bad for a company that listed on Nasdaq just over a year ago.
