Senior🎓
Top SchoolRobert Gaal is a repeat founder and product-driven engineer with 14+ years building consumer and B2B products that scale—from early startups to Google. He founded and led multiple ventures (Wakoopa, Karma, Quest) including YC-backed Quest and an AI acquisition, and now runs Klime, which uses analytics and CRM signals to predict and prevent customer churn. At Google he helped ship systems reaching millions of users and later ran a startup hub in Amsterdam that grew into a top local ecosystem node. An active angel investor and operator-scout, he backs companies like Anthropic and Framer and has a track record of turning developer-built prototypes into commercial products. He’s also a community organizer and board member who successfully pushed for Dutch stock option reform, blending product grit with policy advocacy. Notably, he still codes and ships product-first solutions despite decades of executive experience, keeping technical craft central to his leadership.
