Summary
Today on The Casey Adams Show, I sat down with Jim Groff and Paul Weinberg, the founders of Dokkio, to discuss their journey through the tech ecosystem — from being part of Apple’s first acquisition to building a company designed to solve one of today’s biggest challenges: scattered information.
Jim and Paul break down why context is essential for understanding private data, how AI is reshaping the way companies operate, and the real risks of AI hallucinations in both consumer and enterprise environments. They also share the story behind Dokkio’s creation, the importance of a unified view of information, and what founders should focus on when positioning their companies for acquisition.
