Aplos Data is coming out of stealth with a clear focus: helping organizations move beyond disconnected data, stalled use cases, and AI pilots that never reach production.

In this episode, Aplos Data co-founders Ian Ferré, CEO, and Sean Dooley, Executive Chairman, join the podcast to discuss how they are helping businesses operationalize AI through data, workflow automation, and Palantir-powered systems.

Aplos works with organizations to turn complex data environments into coherent operating systems that drive real decisions, execution, and outcomes. The company focuses on designing and delivering operational systems, taking high-potential use cases from concept to production, and aligning data, AI, and workflows around measurable business value.

Ian and Sean also share the story behind launching Aplos, why they believe companies need long-term partners rather than one-off implementations, and how their experience building and scaling businesses shapes the way they serve clients.

The conversation explores AI, data, digital twins, predictive insights, operational efficiency, and what it takes for organizations to move from experimentation to real-world impact.
