# Jody Glidden

> Jody Glidden is the Founder and CEO of Postilize, a Miami Beach-based AI platform that introduced a new software category called Proactive Relationship Management (PRM) for law firms and professional services. A serial entrepreneur with five ventures and four exits, Glidden previously co-founded Introhive — which grew to a near-$500M valuation, 350+ employees, and 40x returns for early investors — before stepping back in 2022 to build Postilize. Rooted in his conviction that law firms lose clients not from poor service but from poor follow-through, Glidden is building AI that surfaces client opportunities before an RFP ever appears, drafts outreach in each partner's authentic voice, and demands zero data entry from its users.
