FutureSight

<p></p><div><p>FutureSight is seeking an experienced and visionary Founding CEO to lead the launch of a new AI-native SaaS company that automates growth for SMB service businesses.<br>
<br>
Today, service operators rely on fragmented tools, manual follow-up, and disconnected marketing efforts &mdash; leading to lead leakage, slow response times, poor attribution, and inconsistent bookings. This product replaces that complexity with a vertical-specific system of AI GTM Agents that autonomously manage the full customer lifecycle &mdash; from first touch to booked job to repeat business &mdash; with clear, measurable ROI.</p><p>
This is not marketing software, not a CRM, and not an agency. It is a done-with-you / done-for-you AI workflow product, integrated into the operator&rsquo;s system of record, designed to deliver what operators actually want: more booked jobs, higher retention, stronger local trust, and provable returns on spend.</p><h3 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>

Co-Founder & CEO - AI Freight & Supply Chain

<p></p><div><p>FutureSight is seeking an experienced, visionary Founding CEO to lead the launch of a new AI Sales platform explicitly designed for wholesale distributor sales reps.</p><p><br>
Industrial wholesale distributors serving the HVAC, electrical, and plumbing markets face a perfect storm: experienced sales reps are retiring with decades of product knowledge, causing 6-12 months of productivity loss per retirement, while manual quoting can take hours to days when speed determines who wins deals. Distributors turn down 80% of RFPs due to capacity constraints, struggling to manage 100,000+ SKU catalogues and hire staff fast enough. This $2B TAM is growing at 25-30% annually with no dominant player.<br>
<br>
The solution is an AI assistant that serves the complete distributor sales workflow, including inside sales, outside sales, commercial quoting, and counter sales. It transforms hours into seconds through real-time quote generation, automates RFQ processing with ERP integration, processes contractor takeoffs into accurate quotes, provides point-of-sale AI for counter staff, captures institutional expertise in the system, and delivers real-time cross-sell intelligence as a unified all-in-one platform for the complete front-office sales workflow.</p><h3 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>

Co-Founder & CEO - AI RIA Compliance

<p></p><div><p>FutureSight is seeking an experienced and visionary Founding CEO to lead the launch of a new AI-native exception resolution system for mid-market logistics teams (shippers, 3PLs, freight forwarders, distributors).</p><p>
Mid-market logistics operations are governed by documents &mdash; Bills of Lading, customs forms, invoices, PODs, compliance certificates, and contracts &mdash; yet most teams manage these through email, PDFs, portals, and spreadsheets. When documents are missing, incorrect, or inconsistent, shipments stall, costs spike, and ops teams spend most of their time firefighting exceptions instead of managing flow.</p><p>
We&rsquo;re building an exception resolution system that understands shipment documents in context, detects what&rsquo;s missing or wrong, reconciles inconsistencies across documents and systems, and guides teams toward the right corrective action &mdash; without replacing existing TMS or ERP platforms. The result: faster exception resolution, fewer delays, and lower operational cost for the mid-market.</p><p>
This is an opportunity to build an AI-native product in a $30B+ global supply chain software market, targeting one of the most painful and underserved operational problems.</p><h3 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>

Co-Founder & CEO - AI for Logistics Operations

<p></p><div><p>FutureSight is seeking an experienced and visionary Founding CEO to lead the launch of a new AI-native reverse logistics orchestration platform. Reverse logistics &mdash; everything that happens after a sale &mdash; has become one of the largest and least controlled cost centers in modern commerce. Returns, warranties, exchanges, and recoveries are unavoidable, high-volume workflows, yet they are still managed through fragmented tools, spreadsheets, and manual judgment.</p><p>
Operations, finance, and customer teams spend enormous effort enforcing policy, chasing evidence, routing returns, and reconciling outcomes &mdash; often with little visibility into where value is lost or when cash will actually be recovered. The result is margin leakage, long cycle times, and growing operational drag in a workflow that continues to scale.</p><p>
We are building an AI-first orchestration layer that sits between customers, fulfillment networks, and finance systems. The platform enforces policy at intake, captures evidence at the source, determines the optimal path for each return, and tracks outcomes through to financial closure &mdash; without replacing existing ERPs, WMSs, or commerce platforms.</p><p>
This is an opportunity to build c infrastructure in a $700B+ global market, shaping how modern organizations control cost, risk, and recovered value after the sale.</p><h3 class="jobSectionHeader"><b>
