Prompt to PnL
Building AI products is getting easier. Making them profitable is the next hard problem.
2024 was the experiment: What if AI could…?
2025 was production: It works.
2026 is the P&L: Does it make money?
Your AI feature shipped. Customers are using it. Now the harder questions arrive:
Is this a feature customers are willing to pay for?
Which pricing model works: seats, usage, outcomes, or a hybrid?
What happens to margins as inference, evaluations, retries, and data costs scale?
Are customers renewing because you’re creating value or are they merely trying it?
What does a credible AI-native P&L look like from an investor lens?
Four operators on the hardest AI question: is it a feature, or is it a business?
Kamalkanth Tummala (VP, India GTM — Databricks)
Manish Maheshwari (Country Business Head, India — Stripe)
Shivam Rajvanshi (Principal, AI Investor — Together Fund)
Syed Adil (Head of India Growth — Replit)
Together, they will unpack the commercial operating model behind AI-native products: what customers value, how to price it, what it costs to deliver, and what signals show whether the business can compound.
