This week, host Eve Young, economics correspondent for The Jerusalem Post, interviews Didi Gurfinkel, Co-Founder & CEO of Datarails - an AI-powered financial planning and analysis platform. Datarails is using AI to change how Microsoft Excel users do financial planning and analysis. 

Didi will tell us about why the Datarails founders decided to work to fix a problem arising from the use of a product rather than trying to replace it. He will also explain the importance of product-market fit and tell us about Datarails' journey to find it.

He will talk about how he fell in love with coding and how this sent him on his path to tech, and he will touch on his education - why he dropped out of high school, and why this didn't hold him back.
