For the 19th GOAB Startup Mastery Series session, we tried something new: open mic. Instead of booking a speaker, we invited the tech startup community to apply to demo how they're using AI today, whether a real workflow, hack, automation or startup solution.
The rules
No pitch decks allowed. Just open your laptop and show your product working live. Think behind-the-scenes, not sales pitch. Selected presenters each got 10 minutes to demo, followed by live Q&A.
On the open-mic stage
- Sherwin "SirKing" de Jesus built Reviewer's Exchange, a personalized AI tutor that helps people prepare for licensure exams like the Civil Service exam.
- Trisha Salubre, co-founder of Agylion, an AI activation agent for real estate sales.
AI mentors in the room
- Tim Santos, Lead, Philippine AI Report
- Vince Loremia, Technopreneur, realboss.ai
Who tuned in
Founders and owners looking to automate real business workflows, builders who wanted live, no-slides demos, and the AI-curious ready to see what comes after ChatGPT.
Organized by the GOAB Beach Club and Bayanihan Ventures. Thank you to everyone who applied to demo. Keep building, and apply again next time!
Catch the next one. This October we're going deeper with live, production-level AI Engineering Masterclasses. Want every session, year-round? Join the GOAB Beach Club. Questions? Email hello@geeksonabeach.com.
