Omri Dahan is Co-Founder and CEO of Guava, a Los Angeles-based developer platform for building enterprise voice AI agents.

Omri holds an MBA from Harvard Business School and a BS from UC Berkeley, and began his career on President Clinton's White House staff. He later served as CEO of cleantech company TerraFusion and spent a decade as Chief Revenue Officer at Marqeta, leading its commercial growth from its first dollar of revenue until its IPO filing.

Omri has been a core part of building five businesses across five industries and is a guest lecturer at Columbia Business School. He was an early investor in Gridspace before co-founding Guava with its technical founders.

Guava raised a $12.5M seed round led by Acrew Capital, with Flourish Ventures, WillowTree Ventures, Clocktower Ventures and Commerce Ventures participating. Omri co-founded the company with Anthony Scodary, Nico Benitez and Mike Piechna.

Guava's first public model, Daytona, launched in September 2026 and already powers tens of thousands of daily calls for more than a dozen enterprise customers. Its models draw on over 10 billion minutes of live conversations from regulated call centers.
