In this episode of MongoDB Ventures, Anaiya Raisinghani sits down with Rabi Shanker Guha, Co-founder and CEO of Thesys, to discuss the next frontier of AI: Generative UI. While most AI applications are limited to text-based chat, Thesys is building the infrastructure that allows interfaces to be generated on the fly based on user intent and context. Rabi explains how this paradigm shift moves power from development teams to end users, creating intuitive, visual experiences that replace traditional, hardcoded dashboards.

Discover why Thesys chose MongoDB Atlas to handle their rapidly changing metadata, conversational history, and management plane, and how the MongoDB for Startups program helped them accelerate their time to market.
