What if the biggest barrier holding entrepreneurs back was never a lack of ideas, but the friction created by tools, platforms, and infrastructure that were never designed for speed?
In this episode of Business Technology Perspectives, I sit down with Sachin Puri, CEO of Bluehost, to explore how AI-native platforms are reshaping what is possible for entrepreneurs and small businesses. Sachin brings a long-term view from the heart of the web, sharing how the shift toward AI-assisted creation is lowering barriers, accelerating experimentation, and enabling a new wave of solo-scale founders to build brands, storefronts, and full customer journeys in days rather than months.
Our conversation looks beyond AI hype and focuses on where real value is showing up. Sachin explains how customer expectations are evolving in an AI-driven marketplace, where instant performance, personalization, and seamless experiences are no longer differentiators but baseline expectations. We also discuss why infrastructure alone is no longer the advantage it once was, and why speed of innovation, adaptability, and integrated experiences now determine which businesses scale and which struggle to keep up.
We also dig into an important milestone for an open, AI-ready web, with Sachin sharing why collaboration across the ecosystem matters. From Bluehost’s work with Yoast on brand insights and generative engine optimization to broader partnerships with companies like Microsoft, this episode highlights how the next phase of the web will be shaped by platforms that help entrepreneurs get discovered not just by search engines, but by AI systems as well.
Sachin offers practical insight into what happens when success arrives faster than expected, why virality can become a crisis without the right foundations, and why hosting has quietly evolved into a strategic performance layer rather than a background utility. As we look toward 2026, we explore the rise of intelligent, living websites, the return of owned web real estate, and why the future belongs to builders who move quickly while staying grounded in reliability, security, and trust.
If AI is giving entrepreneurs access to capabilities once reserved for the biggest players, how will you use that advantage to build something that lasts?
