Bernard Aceituno

Bernard Aceituno is the Co-Founder and CEO of Stack AI, an enterprise artificial intelligence startup based in San Francisco, California. Prior to launching the company, he spent a decade conducting artificial intelligence and machine learning research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he focused on robotics and dexterous manipulation. He dropped out of his doctoral program to establish Stack AI, participating in the Y Combinator Winter 2023 batch and subsequently securing a $3 million seed funding round led by Google’s Gradient Ventures. Under his leadership, the platform pivoted away from small businesses to target large organizations, resulting in an eightfold revenue increase in a single year and reaching a high seven-figure annual recurring revenue. Aceituno currently focuses on scaling no-code infrastructure that enables enterprise clients to build custom large language model applications for workflow automation.
