Town 创始人 Jean-Denis Greze 谈 AI 创业公司如何应对大模型厂商竞争

Jean-Denis Greze 此前做 AI 报税产品,第一年收入接近 100 万美元,预计第二年达 250 万至 300 万美元,仍主动关停,原因是技术门槛不够、无法做到风险投资级别的规模。他转向做基于邮件和日历的 AI 助手 Town,获得 Ben Horowitz 认可,并拿到 a16z 投资。他分享的核心观点是:AI 应用公司与 OpenAI、Anthropic 这些 token 供应商天然存在竞争,明智做法是保持供应商中立,按业务需求在 frontier 模型和开源权重模型之间分配 token,避免押错单一伙伴。
