On this episode of Coffee with a Founder, Beck Bamberger sits down with Kait Stephens, founder and CEO of Brij. After investing in the space and spotting a massive gap, Kait built Brij to solve a trillion-dollar problem: brands losing access to their customer data when selling through retail and marketplaces.

The conversation dives into how modern consumers shop across channels, why retail is still massively underbuilt from a data perspective, and how founders today are rebuilding companies to be AI-first from both a product and operational standpoint.

If you’re into founders tackling messy, real-world commerce problems and rethinking how brands actually understand their customers, don’t miss this one.
