Builder Odyssey: How an AI Token Meets the Best Product?

500+ AI founders, builders, creators, enterprise leaders, and investors expected. One afternoon in San Francisco.

Join SEAMATE × Linkloud for Builder Odyssey to meet the people building across AI infrastructure, consumer products, and enterprise AI—and explore what it takes to turn AI into products people actually use.

Hear from speakers at Gen, TinyFish, NewsBreak, Cresta, fal, and more, explore live demos, and meet fellow builders. Have a project of your own? Take the mic in our Founder Open Mic and share what you’re building.

🎙️On the Main Stage

Talks, panels, and keynotes featuring speakers from Gen, TinyFish, NewsBreak, Cresta, fal, DramaBox, Subotiz, Photon, and Braintrust, moderated by ShengFM, Linkloud, and SEAMATE.

We’ll follow AI from the infrastructure that powers it to the products people use, and the work it takes to put those products into production.

  • AI Infrastructure: Powering the Agent EraFrom AI gateways to infrastructure built for agents, how are tokens produced, routed, and priced—and what does it take to run and optimize these systems at scale?

  • Multimodal AI: What’s the Next Big Product?Video and multimodal AI take center stage. Which use cases are driving token consumption today, and what could the next big token-hungry product look like?

  • AI’s Last Mile: Can the FDE Model Scale?Demos are easy. Production is not. Forward Deployed Engineers bridge the gap between AI models and enterprise workflows—but can this hands-on approach scale?
