Hunter Zhao is a founder and full-stack engineer with 11 years of experience building product-led AI tools and enterprise solutions from Cambridge, MA. He founded GPT-trainer to help enterprises prototype multi-agent conversational AI rapidly, with connectors to common business apps and an API-first design that surfaces ROI in days rather than months. His background blends strategy and hands-on engineering—earlier at Accenture he designed KPI and benefit-tracking systems that drove tens of millions in identified savings, and at MIT and Caltech he produced research that improved engineering model fidelity and aircraft design metrics. Hunter has repeatedly launched companies (Petal, GPT-trainer, Powabase) that translate complex technical capabilities into deployable products with low technical debt. Not obvious from his title: he pairs aerospace-grade modeling rigor with pragmatic software delivery, enabling rapid prototyping without sacrificing analytical depth.
