In today’s episode of Future Proof, we sit down with Anant Bhardwaj, Founder & CEO of Instabase. Anant shares how Instabase pioneered the use of transformer models for unstructured enterprise data, and how the rise of large language models is shifting value creation from field-level accuracy to full end-to-end workflows.
We discuss:

- Moving beyond “LLM wrappers” to deliver end-to-end customer value
- Lessons from building in regulated industries like banking and healthcare
