EP 138 - Startups: Hunch with Matan Kleyman
About this episode
As we continue our tradition of highlighting innovative startups building for product professionals, we’re excited to introduce Matan Kleyman, CEO and Co-Founder of Hunch, on this week’s episode.
On the show, Matan shares his journey from technical engineering and data science roles to leading product teams and hosting a podcast focused on AI and product management. Now with Hunch, he’s set out to solve a problem many product managers know well: after all the investment in collecting and aggregating data, only a handful of senior data engineers truly know how to use it.
With that problem in mind, Hunch is on a mission to democratize data access, giving product people rapid, autonomous, and approachable ways to get insights, act on their hunches, and unlock value from their company’s data.
