Are founders getting more fraudulent or are we just on the tail end of an overheated market? The latest founder fraudster, Manish Lachwani of HeadSpin, has just been sentenced to 18 months in prison and a $1 million fine. Lachwani is one of many founders who have been caught inflating numbers, misleading investors, or straight up lying about what their technology can do. TechCrunch’s Alex Wilhelm discusses why it seems like founder fraud is on the rise and why we’ll probably be seeing more of these cases in the quarters to come.

Can a handful of engineers really do the work of an army of consultants? That’s the bet behind Ode with Anthropic — the joint venture dedicated to embedding forward-deployed engineers in enterprise firms, backed by Anthropic, Blackstone, Hellman & Friedman, Goldman Sachs and others.

On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, Rebecca Bellan sits down with Ode’s leaders Chris Taylor and Eddie Siegel, who founded Fractional AI, the applied AI services startup that Ode acquired earlier this year to serve as the new venture’s core. The three discuss why so many enterprise AI pilots never make it to production and why they think AI-native services are about to become one of the biggest categories in tech.
