The Aperiam Podcast


If You’re Not Using AI in Dev, You’re Already Behind

AI is now a standard part of software development—at least for Aperiam’s portfolio. Every single company we surveyed is already using it. But only 9% have formal policies in place.

In our latest Aperiam Podcast, Joe Zawadzki and Corey Ferengul dive into what that tells us—and what it doesn’t. They cover:
  • The real impact of AI on developer productivity
  • Why vibe coding is more than a trend
  • How tools like Cursor are reshaping prototyping
  • The rise of agents as business infrastructure
  • And why some execs are treating AI like 100 enthusiastic ninth graders

They also dig into what’s next: the governance gap, the changing role of the executive, and whether 2025-born companies are structurally advantaged in an AI-native world.

Listen and let us know: How are you rolling out AI in your company? Are you a player-coach or still watching from the sideline?
