Enterprises are terrified of betting on the wrong AI provider.

Divyansh thinks the answer isn't picking one. It's using all of them.
Divyansh is a solo developer in the Canopy program at Founders Inc., building Overlay — an open-source AI workspace that pulls together every frontier model, every integration, and every AI feature in one place. He built it across web, desktop, mobile, and a Chrome extension. By himself.

His thesis: the interface is what limits how fast a technology actually spreads. And right now, every AI provider has one feature the others don't — which means locking into any single one is a bet you'll eventually lose.

In this conversation we cover:

•Why vendor lock-in compounds silently until it becomes a real constraint
•The one-time cost of switching vs. the compounding cost of not switching
•What winning enterprise agent architecture actually looks like in 2026
•Why open source, extensible, and aggregated wins every time
•How Composio, Vercel AI Gateway, and OpenRouter form the backbone of Overlay
•The three things Divyansh would tell every founder not to get wrong when building with agents
