Episode #279: Guardrails for AI: Enabling Reliable and Transparent Decisions

This week on The Fervent Four Show, we’re joined by Jeana Bolanos, founder of SalesE, a company building guardrails for AI to ensure reliability, transparency, and compliance in high-stakes industries.

Starting in semiconductor distribution by cutting quote responses from weeks to seconds, SalesE has proven its technology and is now scaling to energy, defense, and government.

Jeana shares how SalesE blends proprietary rule engines with human-in-the-loop workflows to enforce governance, compliance, and trust in AI-powered decisions.
