Why is it so hard to turn what you know into a business? In this episode, Talita Meira, CEO and Co-Founder of Luks.ai, explains the "clarity gap" that keeps experienced professionals from packaging their knowledge into a real business.Talita's path started in biology in Brazil, moved through an engineering master's and an international career in supply chain, and eventually led to co-founding Luks.ai, a platform aiming to help coaches, consultants, and senior professionals turn decades of expertise into structured, sellable programs, without needing a complicated tech stack or an influencer-style following. In this conversation, we talk about: - Why deep expertise doesn't automatically translate into a business - The difference between passive content (courses) and live, high-value programs - How Luks.ai uses AI to help professionals structure their knowledge into an offer - Why Talita believes the future belongs to the "knowledge economy," - Balancing a Doctorate with building a startup This podcast is supported by PROEC-UNESP. *** Timestamp 00:00 Intro – From Biology to Tech Founder 10:04 Becoming a visiting scholar in the US 10:44 Deciding to build a startup during her PhD 15:06 Working with senior executives 16:36 The early pivot from Luksai to Luks.ai 19:05 How Luks.ai Works: build, launch, run, grow 24:30 Why senior professionals may want to share their expertise and turn it into a product 28:07 Balancing a Doctorate and a Startup 28:58 Her Doctorate research topic 32:03 The "Clarity Gap": the #1 mistake experts make 37:43 Luks.ai vs. other AI's: why generic AI isn't enough 42:33 Knowledge economy vs. creator economy 45:15 Insights from Luks.ai pilot 48:14 The future of Luks.ai *** CONNECT WITH THE GUEST 🔗 https://www.linkedin.com/in/talitameira/ 📷 https://www.instagram.com/bytalitameira/ ✉️ ta.meira@gmail.com *** POD LINKS: 🔗 https://www.linkedin.com/company/lab-to-business-podcast/ 📷 https://www.instagram.com/labtobusiness.pod? ✉️ : ⁠contato.ltbpodcast@gmail.com *** Music by Hotham - To the endStream: https://linktr.ee/hothammusic Free Download: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ZmwiC_zzRaOEUSgJTHt4aHjMRpFkN-pV?usp=drive_link
