Eli Rum
Founder & CEO
Building the knowledge runtime for enterprise AI — solo, with AI as a force multiplier.
The Story
Serial technical founder with 15+ years of experience — from sysadmin to CTO to founder. Comfortable at every layer of the stack, from Rust daemons to React dashboards.
Built multiple products: Orchestra (Product Hunt #1 Day/Week/Month), Multiroad (pre-seed from first pitch), 100+ client projects delivered end-to-end.
Now building gerts.ai — an enterprise AI platform with 50+ packages, 20+ microservices, 5,378+ tests. Solo, using AI as a force multiplier equivalent to a 5-7 engineer team.
Philosophy: Research first, then build. 60+ reference implementations studied. 76+ architecture documents written before coding.
