Testimonials
"I went to an AI conference that Craig (ChatWalrus) put on yesterday and was blown away. The most exciting thing is to see case studies of non-technical people (hello, me!) being able to do pretty amazing things with AI." -CEO, $60M+ Women's Apparel

"I’ve gone to a few conferences for AI & ChatWalrus’s was the best one by far. While other events have kept topics surface level, ChatWalrus was all about showcasing real examples from real operators, & gave me tactical ideas that I could apply immediately. The operators who presented woke me up and made me realize I am underutilizing AI." -CFO, $250M+ F&B

WHAT TO EXPECT
Talks and live demos from executives at top eCommerce brands around how they're actually using Claude and ChatGPT to power various parts of their businesses.
You'll leave with a clear picture of how to apply AI across your org. Not because someone told you it's possible, but because you watched real people from real brands do it live.
SESSIONS & SPEAKERS
Subject to Change
On stage for 3.0:
Craig ( Global Head of AI at Crocs, now partner with 125+ brands on AI): I'll teach agent building live, using an operating system I built around Nike's LeBron line. One shoe image in, 13 subagents out: product positioning, PDP copy, email, Insta, SMS, Meta ads & influencer briefs - 11 deliverables in all, each graded 9+ before it launches.
Megan, COO Sundays Furniture: Claude for Excel & Cowork: turning the Excel work your team still does by hand - financial models, month-end close, warehouse load plans, order sorting - into saved automations they rerun in a click, not chats they rebuild every time. 4-hour models now run in 40 minutes.
Rob, CEO Stand+: $10m+/yr with 2 people. His whole company runs on "ORION," the company brain he built in Claude Code & Obsidian. Its out-of-stock engine caught up to $55K/day in lost sales and now writes his POs. Its GEO engine writes the site: six figures in organic revenue, zero press. He'll walk you through all of it.
David, ex-CRO of Beekman 1802: building a new company that's 2 humans & 18 AI agents - they cut a $5,000/mo job to $100.
Joe, Creative Specialist at Ketone-IQ: How a creative actually uses AI - PDP imagery with Nano Banana, videos in Seedance, viral hooks in Higgsfield. One of the top-rated sessions from 2.0
Jack, Global VP Digital at PopSockets: He stopped buying SaaS and started building the apps himself - sales, ops & merch now run on his internal tools. The one he'll demo turns product data into retailer-ready line lists & sell sheets in minutes, recommending SKUs off what's actually selling at comparable retailers. No more hand-building line lists in Excel.
Hannah, Head of Product/Merch at PAVOI: The Tinder-style design-voting app she built in Claude Code, no engineer required. Her team swipes on new designs async, every vote with a reason attached - enough yeses and the design is greenlit for production.
Sean, CEO at Ridge (always the top-rated session): Claude to spot assortment gaps, Higgsfield to build the ads, Manus to run them & gauge demand before the product's even built.
Plus sessions on:
Digital twins: how the insights team at a $7B/yr fashion house turned years of consumer research into twins they can ask "would this land with you?" before a launch
Email brains: one brand's "Campaign Studio" takes a campaign from idea to Klaviyo-ready copy & creative in a few prompts
