The Context Layer Tapes

Most AI in GTM is failing, not because the models are wrong, but because the layer underneath them isn't ready.   The Context Layer Tapes is the bi-weekly podcast for GTM operators responsible for the infrastructure AI actually runs on. The data, the signals, the systems that decide whether AI in GTM works or fails.   Hosted by Florin Tatulea, GTM Engineer in Residence at ZoomInfo, alongside co-host John Lloyd, every episode starts with original data, lands a real take from operators in the trenches, and ends with a workflow you can actually build.   No hot takes or vendor pitches.

#3: Why AI can't serve your GTM stack (and how to fix it) 25.06.2026

In this episode of The Context Layer Tapes, Florin Tatulea and John Lloyd go a layer deeper than data. Drawing on research from 50 senior GTM leaders at US enterprises, they dig into why nearly three-quarters say the real blocker is how data moves betw...

#2: What GTM leaders want from AI (and how to build it) 11.06.2026

In this first episode of The Context Layer Tapes, Florin Tatulea and John Lloyd unpack fresh research from 50 senior GTM leaders at US enterprise companies. The top three things blocking them from getting value out of AI aren't three problems. They're one problem...
