Brendan Roberts: Is this NZ's first AI exit?
Description
He had weeks of cash left, then came the call that changed everything.
In this episode of 2 Commas, I sit down with Brendan Roberts, co-founder of Nine Spokes and Aider.AI, to unpack one of New Zealand’s most remarkable founder journeys.
Brendan shares what it’s really like to build through crisis, recover from near collapse, and ultimately sell twice. We talk about timing, resilience, and how luck usually shows up wearing the clothes of preparation.
If you’re navigating growth, pressure, or an uncertain runway, this conversation will remind you what it takes to stay in the game.
