Hi Sridhar, I came across “Zoho’s Sridhar Vembu Warns Trillion-Dollar AI Investments are a Bubble” (24 Sep 2026), and it made me think of what we are building. What we do: We are building B2B SaaS for logistics companies. I am a first-time founder, currently raising a Seed round. Would you be open to a 30-minute call? Pick any time that suits you: https://calendly.com/piyush_sisondia-pg27/30min If it is easier, I am happy to send a one-page summary first. Thanks for your time, Vikram

Sridhar Vembu discussed AI investment dynamics, vertical SaaS applications, and Zoho's technology roadmap in an interview with Analytics India Magazine.
Why it matters: Vembu shares his perspective on domain-specific vertical SaaS and AI integration, which reflects his current tech interests but does not directly confirm seed investment activity in logistics.
““The SaaS part is very necessary, but we’re combining it with the intelligence,” he says. “AI is the new UI, and we call this ‘ubiquitous intelligence’.””
