# Abhay Taiwade > Helping leaders turn AI into operating advantage. AI Strategy & Operating Systems Advisor | VP, Data & Business Operations | $680M+ in Startup Exits I help CEOs, founders, and executive teams turn AI from isolated experiments into operating advantage. Most organizations already have the data, systems, and AI tools. What they’re lack is a clear operating model that connects them into better decisions. For more than 20 years, I’ve built the operating foundations behind high-growth B2B SaaS companies - from data platforms and GTM operations to forecasting, customer intelligence, and executive decision systems - contributing to more than $680M in combined startup exits. Today, my work sits at the intersection of AI, data, and business operations. I help leadership teams identify where AI creates real leverage, design AI-ready operating models, and build decision systems that connect GTM, Product, Customer Success, Finance, and Data into a more intelligent business. My work includes: • AI strategy and operating model design • Revenue intelligence and customer lifecycle systems • GTM architecture and RevOps transformation • Product adoption and customer intelligence • Executive dashboards, forecasting, and decision support • AI copilots and operational workflows • Data architecture for AI-ready organizations • Board reporting and operational planning Whether the goal is accelerating growth, improving retention, preparing for fundraising, or modernizing how the business operates, I focus on building systems that continue creating leverage long after the initial project is complete. I believe AI is changing how businesses operate - not by replacing leaders, but by helping them make better decisions, faster. That’s the work I’m excited to help build. I enjoy working with leaders who see AI not as another tool, but as an opportunity to rethink how their business operates ## Offerings - Video call (15 min): $150.00 ## Subscription Plans - Optimizing Your Data, GTM and Retention Strategy – 1:1 Expert Guidance ($2500.00/month) ## Example Questions - I’m thinking of starting a company.
