81: AI Series: Standard AI CEO Angie Westbrock on Retail Tech and Supply Chain Optimization

In this episode, we continue our Summer Learning AI series with an incredible guest: Angie Westbrock, the CEO of Standard AI. Bringing a refreshing, non-traditional career trajectory to the table—spanning major roles at Anheuser-Busch, HelloFresh, and Lyft—Angie breaks down exactly how computer vision and machine learning are revolutionizing the physical supply chain. If phrases like "artificial intelligence" feel a bit overwhelming, Angie demystifies the tech jargon using plain, real-world language. She explains how her company converts standard in-store security camera feeds into anonymous data analytics. This process gives brick-and-mortar retail stores the exact same high-fidelity conversion metrics that online e-commerce platforms have relied on for years.

Listeners will get a deep-dive look at how tracking real-time consumer foot traffic and display engagement can eliminate massive supply chain blind spots, optimize warehouse replenishment, and dramatically improve inventory demand planning. Beyond the technology, Angie shares invaluable, battle-tested leadership lessons forged from her early days managing midnight shifts in manufacturing plants.
