Building AI Products That Solve Real Problems
Building AI Products That Solve Real Problems
AI is everywhere. But building something that actually solves a real problem is a completely different challenge.
In this session, we bring together founders and builders who are using AI, automation and technology to solve real world problems, sharing what happens beyond the hype: how they identify opportunities, build the product, deal with real operational challenges and turn technology into measurable impact.
This is not a pitch event.
It is a practical conversation about building, experimenting, failing, learning and creating products that people actually use.
Talks From Idea to Real AI Systems
Diogo Coutinho, Flowzi
How do you go from identifying a problem inside a company to actually building an AI system around it?
Diogo will share what Flowzi has learned from working directly with real businesses, mapping their operations and turning repetitive processes and complex workflows into AI powered systems.
A practical look at how to identify the right problems, where AI actually makes sense, how to think about automation and, most importantly, how to measure whether what you build is actually creating value.
AI & Automation in a Real Hotel Group
Duarte, Flowzi
What happens when you take AI and automation out of the demo and put it inside a real business?
Duarte will walk through a real Flowzi case study from a hotel group, showing the problem they faced, how the operation was analysed, what was built and how the solution helped reduce more than €30,000 in fixed costs.
A real example of how software, automation and AI can create measurable impact in an existing hospitality business.
The AI Powered Clinic
Carlos Torres
How can AI, automation and voice change the way clinics operate and care for patients?
Carlos will explore how AI can be applied to real clinical environments, from patient communication and administrative workflows to automation, voice and operational processes.
The focus is not AI as a buzzword, but what it actually takes to build and apply these technologies to solve real problems in healthcare.
AI for Real Estate: Building an AI Team Behind Every Agent
Tiago Novais, New Wave AI
What if every real estate agent had an AI team working behind them 24/7?
Tiago is the Founder of New Wave AI, an AI powered commercial and administrative platform built specifically for real estate professionals.
He will share what he has learned from building AI systems inside real estate businesses, from responding to and qualifying leads to following up with opportunities, reactivating old databases, scheduling viewings and automating day to day administrative work.
A practical look at how AI can move beyond simple chatbots and automations to become an actual operational layer for a real estate business.
What to expect
• Real world AI use cases • Lessons from building products for real businesses • Practical approaches to AI and automation • The challenges behind implementing AI in production • Honest lessons from founders and builders • A chance to meet other people building and working with AI
The event will finish with an open Q&A and networking session, giving attendees the opportunity to ask questions and connect with the speakers and other builders.
Whether you're a founder, developer, operator, student or simply interested in what AI can actually do beyond the hype, this session is for you.
