LevelheadsMitchell Kasselman - C0-Founder of RessioWhat do project management software, AI agents, and three butt cheeks have in common? This episode of The Levelheads Podcast.
This episode we’re joined by Mitchell Kasselman, CEO and co-founder of Ressio Software—the fast-rising project management tool shaking up the building world. Mitchell breaks down his startup journey, the headaches with field adoption, and how AI “agents” might soon handle the busywork for builders. We cover growth, innovation, and even some laugh-out-loud “this or that” questions (including three butt cheeks). Packed with insights and banter, this one’s not to be missed.
