SKYLAR WANGSAN FRANCISCO · PARTNERSHIPS & GTM FOR AI
▼ SCROLL ▼
The one-liner

I take what's technically possible in AI and drag it into contact with real users until it works.

I'm a partnerships and distribution operator who came up through the product side. Cofounded a computer-vision Physical AI device at 23 — patents filed, seed led by DJI's cofounder. Shipped production ML inside two of the world's largest banks. Then built my own GTM company and took 15+ AI / LLM companies to market — sourcing, negotiating and closing the deals, then running the launches through 500+ technical builders and 2,000+ KOLs. Today I lead strategic partnerships in North America for Tripo AI, and keep building ANSIO Labs — the AI growth agent that automates the work I used to do by hand.

"Fei-Fei Li describes two kinds of people who move technology forward — the ones who publish the next paper, and the ones who drag what's on the frontier into contact with real users. I've been doing the second thing since I was 23."

WORK

2026 — NOW

TRIPO AI · STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS LEAD

Strategic partnerships and ecosystem go-to-market in North America for a generative-3D AI company — developer and hackathon ecosystems, artist and creative communities, industry events, and enterprise channels. The China ↔ US bridge I'd been building toward: helping a China-headquartered AI company earn US-native positioning, partnerships, and enterprise trust.

2025 — NOW

EXPANSIO AI → ANSIO LABS · FOUNDER

My own company, in two chapters. Expansio — sourced, negotiated and closed 15+ B2B engagements with AI / LLM companies, then ran their user acquisition and GTM end-to-end; built and led the delivery team, bootstrapped to six-figure revenue in year one. ANSIO Labs is what that work turned into: an AI growth agent that prices creators the way a quant fund prices assets, surfaces the underpriced ones, drives the outreach, and turns every real campaign into proprietary audit-grade data.

100M+ impressions with measurable trial → paid · network of 500+ technical builders, 2,000+ KOLs, 35+ tier-1 outlets · 3-cofounder team reassembled from Beauer

2021 — 2022

BEAUER TECH · COFOUNDER

Where it started, on the product side. Cofounded and shipped a computer-vision Physical AI consumer device at 23 — on-device CV detecting skin cleanliness in real time. I ran the primary user research, the category teardown, and NLP on 10,000+ e-commerce reviews, then translated all of it into ICP, positioning, and the final hardware-software product form.

Seed led by 李泽湘 Li Zexiang (DJI cofounder) · CV patents filed · hardware shipped

THINGS I SHIPPED

ANSIO — the Bloomberg Terminal for the creator economy

ANSIO

Flagship · in development

Why it matters: creator growth is run on vibes and screenshots. ANSIO runs it like a quant fund — it prices creators, finds the underpriced ones, drives the outreach, and turns every real campaign into proprietary, audit-grade data nobody else can scrape. Alpha is the wedge; that data moat is why it compounds.

MUSE∞

Hackathon build · playable 3D museum

Ask one question. Walk through the museum it becomes. Your question curates the collection — 42 open-access Art Institute of Chicago works, no painting twice — and Monet, Van Gogh and Socrates walk beside you arguing about every canvas in their own voices. World Labs worlds, Tripo 3D companions, MiniMax narration, Three.js, zero build step. Built for SensAI · WORLDS IN ACTION at SIGGRAPH LA, open source under MIT.
