$1B Family Office, Built in Public: Anmol Goel on Putting AI to Work

Anmol Goel, CEO and Managing Partner of GACS Family Office, joins The Agentic Allocator for a practical conversation about AI adoption inside a family office that is still working it out. GACS invests over $1 billion across venture, private equity and private credit from London and India. Anmol walks through the tools that have earned their place, including a tech due diligence system trained on the firm’s own investment memos and a personal knowledge base built from close to 10,000 contacts, and is equally direct about what has gone wrong, from sensitive documents ending up in public tools to output going out unchecked. He also explains the increasing importance of human connection in an AI-driven world.
