About Jerry Li

Co-Founder & CEO at LiveX AI | Building the Human-AI Interface for the Physical World Every major platform shift creates a new interface layer. The internet had browsers. Mobile had apps. Physical AI has LiveX. The way brands engage customers is broken — billions spent on display ads that get ignored, fragmented tools that don\'t talk to each other, and reactive support that drives churn. Passive brand spend is dying. The next generation of customer engagement will be human-like, ambient, and physical. That shift is happening now. LiveX is the full-stack platform for this moment — hardware and software, cloud and on-prem — deploying human-like AI agents across every touchpoint a brand owns. Apps, websites, retail stores, stadiums, airports, and holographic displays. Unlike passive display ads that interrupt and get ignored, LiveX agents engage — starting conversations, answering questions, and guiding customers from discovery to purchase in real time. One platform. One intelligent presence. Everywhere your customers are. Proven at scale: 30k+ fan engagements at Super Bowl LX90%+ self-service resolution across millions of interactions30%+ churn reduction — without promotions3× free-to-paid conversion upliftMillions in revenue impact for leading consumer brands Why LiveX wins: Full-stack ownership — hardware, software, cloud and on-prem — creates a moat that pure software players can\'t replicate. Enterprises with strict data sovereignty needs deploy on-prem. Brands that need global scale deploy in the cloud. Every deployment makes our models smarter. As an NVIDIA partner, we\'re already embedded in the infrastructure powering the next generation of physical AI. The market opportunity: Global display advertising alone exceeds $300B — and most of it underperforms. LiveX represents a fundamental reallocation of brand spend toward AI-powered engagement that actually converts. That\'s the size of the opportunity we\'re going after. Why I build this: My career has been about finding where deep technology meets real market need — semiconductor simulation, large-scale machine learning, algorithmic trading, venture-backed startups. LiveX is the convergence of everything I\'ve built toward. The team, the timing, and the traction are aligned in a way I\'ve never seen before. The physical world is going AI. LiveX is the face of it.
