Before founding harpin AI, Scott Sahadi and Raymond Aktin spent years helping lead innovation projects for some of the world’s iconic brands, including being a part of the core team that built the Disney MagicBand and Carnival’s Medallion wearable.

Those projects promised unforgettable, personalized guest experiences. But behind the scenes, they were held back by a frustrating reality: the data wasn’t ready. Fragmented systems, inconsistent records, and unreliable profiles made it nearly impossible to deliver on the full vision.

They felt that pain deeply — and realized the tools available only offered surface-level fixes. Basic hygiene wasn’t enough. The problem was foundational, and it demanded a deeper solution.

With the rise of AI and machine learning, Scott and Ray saw a new opportunity: to finally solve this problem at the level it required.

harpin AI was born to solve what others overlook — delivering truly validated, connected, and trusted data at the foundation, so teams can act faster, fuel strategy, and unlock real ROI from the systems they already use.

Today, we partner with the world’s most customer-obsessed brands to do just that. Turning underperforming data into measurable outcomes.
