About

Zohar Babin is Chief Strategy & Corporate Development Officer at Kaltura (NASDAQ: KLTR), the Agentic DX Platform, where he leads strategy, partnerships, and M&A after ~20 years helping grow the company from an open-source disruptor into a public company. He's been writing and shipping open-source software since he was 13 — agentic AI systems are the current chapter of that habit, not a new one. His recent work focuses on agentic AI systems, AI-powered due diligence, and enterprise AI governance: verification-first tools that trace every AI-generated finding back to a real, checkable source. This site is a running record of that work — open-source projects, specs, and writing — plus the research and personal fintech projects he builds as an investor and lifelong open-source advocate.
