Sutha Kamal leads AI and product at Kimono, the company he co-founded in 2024, after building and selling consumer health startup Massive Health to Jawbone.
Worth knowing
He has taken AI and mobile products from first architecture to acquisition, and from studio and enterprise scale at Technicolor and VMware, where the hard part was security and access patterns rather than the model. He mentors founders through Creative Destruction Lab in Toronto. Worth writing to if you are building an AI product and need someone who has designed the threat model as well as the demo.
Story
Sutha studied computer science with a focus on artificial intelligence at the University of Toronto, began his career on wireless data services, and ran mobile at Toronto's TransGaming Technologies before heading to San Francisco. There he started Massive Health with Aza Raskin in 2010 and led The Eatery, an iPhone app that let people photograph and rate what they ate. Apple named it one of the best apps of 2011. After the company was acquired, he moved into enterprise technology strategy, building AI and VR at studio scale on projects including The Martian VR Experience and VFX rotoscoping pipelines, then advising large customers on platform architecture. At Kimono he owns the AI architecture and the Origin-Edge-Client threat model, and he writes on Substack about Cortex, an autonomous personal AI system.
