Then they automate it. It’s an AI-native consulting firm where agents learn how a business actually runs - process by process - then automate the most manual work directly inside the company’s existing systems Not in quarters. In days. Samuel kept seeing the same pattern every time a consulting firm walked into a large organization: Great strategy Beautiful slides Minimal implementation The recommendations were smart. The operational change rarely came. He also saw a second problem: Consulting fees were disconnected from outcomes. Clients paid upfront whether the recommendations worked or not. The incentives were broken by design So he and his co-founder Javier built the thing consulting always promised but rarely delivered: Implementation. The pitch to clients is simple: Grow your company with the headcount you already have. 🎙️ Samuel Mirpuri , Co-Founder, flowscope on Fondo START pod 00:57 Why traditional consulting stopped at recommendations instead of implementation 02:33 The disconnect between consulting fees and measurable outcomes 03:18 How Flowscope maps entire enterprise departments in two weeks 04:24 Why AI should augment human judgment instead of replacing people 05:30 From aeronautical engineering classmates to AI-native founders 06:02 Sam Altman’s $2M OpenAI token offer to YC startups 07:00 Why AI tokens may become a new startup currency layer 07:29 Customer, Customers, Customers ‍ Check out www.flowscope.com","meta_description":"Flowscope’s agents can map an entire department in two weeks.
