Gurudev Karanth's Linkedin Analytics

Data analytics - when done right - can be a game changer for your e-commerce business. Hey, I’m Gurudev, CEO and Co-founder of Out of the Blue, an AI-powered revenue optimization platform for D2C brands that helps monitor and alert e-commerce and D2C businesses to changes in performance. With a rich background encompassing 25 years in eCommerce, Business Intelligence, Experimentation, data science, and analytics, I intimately understand the challenges faced by data-driven teams across the enterprise including experience, marketing, merchandising, and operations teams. I’m on a mission to make data-driven teams 10X more effective by enabling them to innovate faster, smarter, and more confidently. I've been a driving force in transforming enterprises, instigating a cultural shift toward data-driven decision-making, and leveraging cutting-edge technologies like statistical analysis, machine learning, deep learning, AI, and cloud computing. As a founding member of the experimentation program at eBay in 2005, I played a pivotal role in pioneering experimentation when dedicated platforms were still a rarity. As a multiple patent holder, executive leader, and passionate innovator, I specialize in identifying and building scalable, impactful products. My approach draws from startup methodologies and lean product principles, ensuring a potent combination of efficiency and effectiveness. When I’m not working, I enjoy the outdoors - going for hikes, skiing in the winter months, and socializing with the community. You can also find me speaking at various conferences and events on topics related to big data, data science, and digital transformation.
