Lean, Fast, AI-First — Matt Verlaque, Founder of Precision | Ep 37

In this episode of SaaS Founder Stories, I talk with Matt Verlaque, co-founder and CEO of Precision, about what it looks like to actually run your company with AI — not just use it on the side.

Matt’s team runs sales follow-up with Grain and GPT. They write code with Cursor and OpenCommit. Their lead magnet is a custom GPT, not a PDF. And every team member is expected to log how they used AI — every single day.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
→ Precision uses Cursor, Copilot, and OpenCommit for 3x faster dev
→ Sales follow-up and proposal gen are fully AI-automated
→ Their lead magnet is a custom GPT that qualifies leads in real-time
→ Internal ops are driven by Slack standups and AI-based accountability
→ AI isn’t a side tool — it’s part of every workflow, across every team

SOUND BITES
→ "You don’t get headcount until you’ve maxed out AI."
→ "I haven’t written a commit message in months — AI handles it."
→ "Our lead magnet isn’t a download. It’s a working GPT."
→ "AI isn’t just speed — it’s leverage across the whole business."

This is one of the most tactical breakdowns of how to build and run lean using AI as your core operating system. Subscribe to SaaS Founder Stories wherever
