About Garrett Tillman

I\'m a product marketer who keeps ending up at the intersection of \"this is really hard to explain\" and \"but people need to hear about it.\" Right now I\'m building the marketing function at Daydream, where we\'re creating the category for real-time AI video — the kind where AI generation happens live, not overnight in a render queue. Before that, I spent 15 years translating complex technical products into stories people actually care about: launching the Reddit Developer Platform, shipping Stream Together at Twitch, and writing copy at Apple that billions of people read without knowing someone wrote it. I\'m at my best when I\'m embedded with product teams, turning what they\'re building into positioning that moves markets — and building the teams and systems to do it at scale.
