Former Apple AI Engineer Brings Privacy-First Automation to Document Management

John Fitzpatrick, CTO of Nitro Software and former Apple AI engineer, built his career on automating boring, repetitive tasks that drain productivity. In this episode of Lead with AI, Dr. Tamara Nall speaks with John about how Nitro evolved as an AI-powered document management platform that understands context, automates workflows, and gives time back to users. John shares how Smart Redact automatically identifies and removes PII data across thousands of pages instantly, how a pharma company transformed patient intake processing through automated extraction outputting clean CSV files, and why Nitro deliberately doesn't train AI models on customer data despite making development harder. The platform uses multiple specialized AI models in private instances, processes documents ephemerally (no storage), and brings Apple-level privacy focus to enterprise document management. For anyone drowning in contract reviews, form processing, or PII redaction, John explains how Niro's AI can handle tedious tasks while humans focus on high-value work.
