About

The product mind behind Slate

Joe Kurian is the Co-founder and CPO of Slate. His passion lies in understanding how AI search engines perceive a brand and in building a useful product around it.

As AI becomes the new layer of discovery, what LLMs decide to show or skip shapes a brand's visibility in ways most teams don't fully understand yet. Joe is building Slate to change that.

Before Slate, Joe built his expertise across product and growth in the B2B SaaS space in companies like Freshworks. At Slate, he works closely with the engineering team to shape the product, with one guiding principle: marketers need an AI co-worker, not another dashboard.
