On this episode, I interview Rick Nucci, Co-founder and CEO of Guru. Guru is the all-in-one tool that keeps your team connected and puts all the information they need in one place.

As a collaborative knowledge management solution, Guru is at the forefront of empowering the next generation of knowledge workers. With hundreds of customers, including leading enterprises like Shopify, Square, Spotify, and Zoom, Guru is reshaping how teams create, find, and share institutional knowledge.

Guru combines three products into one powerful platform, offering secure enterprise search, an intranet, and a wiki.

Positioned to deliver an unparalleled knowledge management experience, Guru offers AI-powered experiences, enabling users to obtain instant answers from their existing sources and to capture and create knowledge effortlessly.

Guru is backed by Accel, Thrive Capital, Emergence Capital, FirstMark Capital, MSD Capital, Slack Fund, and Salesforce Ventures.

Guru recently celebrated its 10-year anniversary—a significant milestone that fills Rick with a sense of accomplishment and an eagerness for the future, particularly regarding AI's central role in what's to come.

Before Guru, Rick founded Boomi, a cloud-based integration platform that became increasingly vital as companies adopted Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions requiring effective integration with existing systems. Boomi was acquired by Dell in 2010.

Listen to Rick recount his entrepreneurial journey with Boomi and Guru, the lessons learned, the challenges faced, and how his team at Guru is leading the charge in AI advancements to revolutionize how companies access and utilize knowledge across teams.
