Chase Hughes

I am a product leader and engineer obsessed with the intersection of entrepreneurial velocity and enterprise-grade strategy. My career is defined by building high-performance AI tools from the ground up and scaling them to acquisition.

Most recently, I founded ProAI, a GenAI business-planning platform. I bootstrapped the company to over 300,000 users including large asset managers before it was acquired in July 2025. At ProAI, I didn’t just manage the roadmap; I architected the multi-agent LangGraph frameworks and memory architecture that powered the core product.

My background is a hybrid of product strategy and hands-on engineering.
