Start With the Problem, Not the Tool with Navin Mirania

Transcript

AI automation is everywhere right now, but most of what people see online is the easy part: a slick demo, a chatbot, a promise that one person can suddenly do the work of five. We get real about what happens after the hype, when you try to put agentic AI into production and it has to run every day on real data, real customers, and real consequences.

Grant McGaugh sits down with Navin, a longtime IT and workflow automation builder who helps small business owners design reliable AI agents, configure tools, and connect messy systems into clean business process automation. We unpack why the biggest challenge is not “which AI tool should I buy” but “what problem am I solving.” From financial reporting workflows to e-commerce operations, we show how to map the steps, define the inputs and outputs, and build an AI roadmap that actually improves speed, communication, scale, memory, and pattern recognition inside your company.

We also dig into AI governance and validation, because probabilistic AI outputs still need domain expertise, especially when accuracy matters. Then we shift into what is changing in marketing and discovery: SEO is no longer the only game in town. With Artificial Engine Optimization (AEO), people ask AI for answers, and businesses need to understand how they show up and how to audit what these systems return. If you want AI to save time without creating new chaos, this is the playbook to start with. Subscribe, share this with a founder who is overwhelmed by AI tools, and leave a review with the workflow you want to automate next.
