Kyle Ledbetter is co-founder and CTO of Dreambase (“Your data team of agents.”), an agentic analytics platform partnered with and backed by Supabase. Born in Lafayette, Louisiana, Kyle grew up in Baton Rouge, went to LSU and finished at UL Lafayette. In 2003 he moved to Austin, started his own web design firm, Pixel Praise, and led UX for Joomla. He led design at eBay from 2011, at Teradata in San Diego from 2015 to 2021 and at Credo AI from 2021 to 2024. He is based in Austin, Texas.

The home page is a scroll-driven 3D model of a robot with six parts, one for each chapter of Kyle’s story, in order. Left and right are the robot’s own. At the end the parts come back together, and a figure of Kyle sits in a cockpit in the chest. This file is that story as text. Every fact is also on https://kyleledbetter.com/agent, with the full timeline, talks and writing.

## 1. First graduating 3D animation class in Louisiana

- **Chapter:** 1 of 6, College
- **Years:** Before Austin
- **Place:** Lafayette and Baton Rouge, Louisiana
- **Roles:** Student at LSU; Graduate in 3D animation at UL Lafayette; Partner, web designer and developer at superMega Media
- **Organizations:** [Louisiana State University](https://www.lsu.edu/), [University of Louisiana at Lafayette](https://louisiana.edu/), superMega Media
- **Robot part on the 3D site:** left leg

- **Markdown:** https://kyleledbetter.com/story/louisiana.md

Kyle Ledbetter was born in Lafayette, Louisiana, and grew up in Baton Rouge, where he went to LSU. He finished at UL Lafayette, in the very first graduating class of 3D animation in Louisiana.

In Kyle’s words:

I’m Cajun. I was born in Lafayette, Louisiana, and grew up in Baton Rouge, where I went to LSU. Then I moved back to Lafayette and finished at UL Lafayette, in the very first graduating class of 3D animation in the state.

In Lafayette I was also a partner at superMega Media, designing and building custom Flash websites. It was early enough that, before you could sell a company a website, you had to convince it that it needed one at all.

In 2003 I moved to Austin.

On the 3D site this chapter is the robot’s left leg. Its popover reads: “Born in Lafayette, grew up in Baton Rouge. Part of Louisiana’s first graduating class of 3D animation.” Its panel reads: “I was born in Lafayette and grew up in Baton Rouge, where I went to LSU. Then I moved back to Lafayette, finished at UL Lafayette and built custom Flash websites as a partner at superMega Media.”

The full story:

**Lafayette and Baton Rouge**

I was born in Lafayette, Louisiana, and grew up in Baton Rouge, where I went to LSU. After LSU I moved back to Lafayette and finished at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, in the very first graduating class of 3D animation in the state.

**superMega Media**

In Lafayette I was also a partner at superMega Media, a small web design firm, where I worked as a web designer and developer. We designed and built custom Flash websites.

It was early enough that, before we could sell a company a website, we first had to convince it that it needed a web presence at all.

My first decade of work started at superMega Media. Those years were about building skills and learning about business, and I grew from a Flash designer into a developer and began laying the foundations for user experience and customer experience.

**The move to Austin**

In 2003 I moved to Austin, Texas, and started my own web design firm, Pixel Praise, where I pioneered Flash websites while Flash was the bleeding edge of the web. Pixel Praise grew into one of the premier Joomla development firms, and the Joomla work later brought me to eBay.

## 2. Early open-source champion & entrepreneur in Austin

- **Chapter:** 2 of 6, Entrepreneur
- **Years:** 2003-2010
- **Place:** Austin, Texas
- **Roles:** Partner, lead UI developer and designer at Pixel Praise; UX lead at Joomla
- **Organizations:** Pixel Praise, [Joomla](https://www.joomla.org/)
- **Robot part on the 3D site:** right leg
- **Read on the web:** https://kyleledbetter.com/agent#austin
- **Markdown:** https://kyleledbetter.com/story/austin.md

In 2003 Kyle Ledbetter moved to Austin, Texas, and started his own web design firm, Pixel Praise (2003-2010), pioneering Flash websites. He then led UX for Joomla, which powered about 3% of the web, millions of sites.

In Kyle’s words:

In 2003 I moved to Austin and started my own web design firm, Pixel Praise. I ran it until 2010, and in those years I pioneered Flash websites, back when Flash was the bleeding edge of the web.

At Pixel Praise I wrote the business plan, ran sales and built the sites, and I introduced one- to two-week design sprints well before sprints were commonplace.

Then I went into open source. I’d been building on Mambo before it became Joomla, and Pixel Praise grew into one of the premier Joomla development firms, with products of our own: JoomlaPraise themes, TapTheme for mobile, the AdminPraise admin app and the ProjectFork project management suite.

Eventually I led UX for Joomla itself, back when “UX” was a new term to a lot of people. Joomla was the second-largest open source content management system in the world and powered about 3% of the web, millions of sites. Like a lot of enterprise software, it had been designed by engineers. I redid the whole admin UI and UX and reworked it for accessibility, responsiveness and productivity.

I talked about those years on the [Tech People podcast](https://soundcloud.com/method-matters/tp008-kyle-ledbetter). The Joomla work is also what brought me to eBay.

The full story:

**Pixel Praise**

In 2003 I moved to Austin and started my own web design firm, Pixel Praise. I ran it until 2010, and in those years I pioneered Flash websites, back when Flash was the bleeding edge of the web.

At Pixel Praise I wrote the business plan, ran sales and built the sites. I introduced one- to two-week design sprints well before sprints were commonplace.

**Open source and our own products**

Then I went into open source. I’d been building sites on Mambo before it became Joomla, and Pixel Praise grew into one of the premier Joomla development firms.

We made products of our own: JoomlaPraise themes, TapTheme for mobile, the AdminPraise admin app and the ProjectFork project management suite. We ran an online template club and an open source project management software company, and we offered a web app design service to small and medium-sized businesses in Austin.

**Leading UX for Joomla**

Eventually I led UX for Joomla itself, back when “UX” was a new term to a lot of people. Joomla was the second-largest open source content management system in the world, after WordPress, and powered about 3% of the web, millions of sites.

Like a lot of enterprise software, Joomla had been designed by engineers. I redid the whole admin UI and UX and reworked it for accessibility, responsiveness and productivity. I talked about those years on the Tech People podcast.

**From Joomla to eBay**

The Joomla work is what brought me to eBay. eBay ran a large internal Joomla site for its data analytics, and in 2011 I joined as head of design for its entire internal technology division.

## 3. Head of design for eBay’s technology team

- **Chapter:** 3 of 6, eBay
- **Years:** From 2011
- **Place:** Austin, Texas (traveling to San Jose, California)
- **Roles:** Head of design, internal technology division at eBay
- **Organizations:** [eBay](https://www.ebay.com/)
- **Robot part on the 3D site:** left arm
- **Read on the web:** https://kyleledbetter.com/agent#ebay
- **Markdown:** https://kyleledbetter.com/story/ebay.md

In 2011 Kyle Ledbetter joined eBay as head of design for its entire internal technology division, pioneering BI and big data. He was based in Austin, traveled to San Jose, and designed DataHub, which opened up 52 petabytes of data.

In Kyle’s words:

In 2011 I joined eBay as head of design for its entire internal technology division. I was based in Austin and traveled to San Jose, and we were pioneering business intelligence (BI) and big data while both were still new.

My Joomla work is what brought me to eBay, which ran a large internal Joomla site for its data analytics. There I designed the UI platform for eBay’s technology organization, plus DataHub, an analytics community and reporting hub for executives.

The brief was to design an intersection of dashboards, reports, forums, access control, blogs and news for the whole technology organization, on top of petabytes of data. DataHub plugged into Teradata, Tableau, MicroStrategy, Oracle and SQL. It opened up 52 petabytes of data, from eBay.com user behavior to online transactions, so analysts, data scientists and business users could find their own answers.

The work got press from [InfoWorld](https://www.infoworld.com/article/2284469/big-data-visualization-a-big-deal-for-ebay.html), [CRN](https://web.archive.org/web/20210118110534/https://www.crn.com.au/news/inside-ebays-massive-data-warehouse-342800) and Ventana Research’s [David Menninger](https://davidmenningervr.wordpress.com/2011/08/24/the-consumerization-of-collaborative-bi-has-arrived/), and it laid a foundation for features that were still in development ten years later.

After eBay I worked at Sears Holdings in 2013, on a small team tasked with saving Sears with analytics and data. In 2014, at MicroStrategy, I helped redesign the world’s most popular BI product with natural language and search as the interface.

It laid a foundation for features that were still in development ten years later.

DataHub got press from InfoWorld and CRN Australia, and David Menninger of Ventana Research featured it in a 2011 post on collaborative BI.

**Sears Holdings and MicroStrategy**

After eBay, in 2013, I joined Sears Holdings as a principal UX designer, on a small team tasked with saving Sears with analytics and data. Our job was to revamp the analytics experience of a company founded in 1893. We built an enterprise analytics social network across all the Sears Holdings companies and ran R&D on streaming ingestion and segmentation with Docker, Kafka, Cassandra and MongoDB.

In 2014 I joined MicroStrategy as a senior UX designer and helped redesign the world’s most popular BI product, with natural language and search as the interface. I introduced a voice-driven, natural language vision for analytics, with concepts that have since become standards and best practices. In 2015 I joined Teradata in San Diego.

## 4. Global Head of UX transforming Teradata’s product & design culture

- **Chapter:** 4 of 6, Teradata
- **Years:** 2015-2021
- **Place:** San Diego, California
- **Roles:** Principal UX architect at Teradata; Director, user experience at Teradata; Senior director, user experience, and global head of design at Teradata
- **Organizations:** [Teradata](https://www.teradata.com/)
- **Robot part on the 3D site:** right arm
- **Read on the web:** https://kyleledbetter.com/agent#teradata
- **Markdown:** https://kyleledbetter.com/story/teradata.md

In 2015 Kyle Ledbetter joined Teradata in San Diego as a principal UX architect and rose to global head of design, revamping the entire product suite for Fortune 500 analytics. He stayed until 2021.

In Kyle’s words:

I joined Teradata in San Diego in 2015 and stayed until 2021. The company had traditionally shipped hardware, with long release cycles, waterfall and thousands of engineers. By the time I left, I was its global head of design, and we’d revamped the entire product suite for Fortune 500 analytics.

I started as a principal UX architect on a small team that led the move to agile, software-only products. We created [Covalent](https://teradata.github.io/covalent/), an open source UI platform built on Angular and Material Design, used by Teradata and Fortune 500 customers. Our goal was speed to productivity, with functional UI in one sprint.

I moved up to director and then senior director of user experience. As senior director I reported to the C-suite and built a centralized global UX organization for a 10,000-person company, with research and design teams, UX labs and design studios. In 2018 we launched #OneUX to open the whole company up to UX. We also formalized our process as [R.A.D.A.R.](https://kyleledbetter.medium.com/r-a-d-a-r-ux-design-wrapped-with-architecture-research-f9a507e83f56), so every UX request was researched with real users, architected, usability tested and benchmarked.

For years, Teradata had built products for one persona, the DBA, and engineers took feature requests as requirements. We ran research with more than 500 customers from 150+ Fortune 1000 companies, cut 17 personas down to 6 and rebuilt them from real customers. Then we redesigned the entire Teradata Vantage product suite, from SQL editors and data catalogs to operations tools, and introduced dark mode.

In 2019 I presented the work in the [UX keynote](https://players.brightcove.net/pages/v1/index.html?accountId=1222253929001&playerId=default&videoId=6097709549001&mode=iframe) at Teradata Universe in Denver, for 2,000 customers in the room and thousands more streaming online. The most important result of those years was proving the ROI of UX: lower costs, less churn and faster time to market.

On the 3D site this chapter is the robot’s right arm. Its popover reads: “Global head of design, revamping the entire product suite for Fortune 500 analytics.” Its panel reads: “From 2015 to 2021 I was at Teradata in San Diego, rising from UX architect to global head of design. We built Covalent, ran research with 500+ customers, cut 17 personas to 6 and revamped the entire product suite for Fortune 500 analytics.”

The full story:

**Covalent and the UI platform**

I joined Teradata in San Diego in 2015 as a principal UX architect. The company had traditionally shipped hardware, with long release cycles, waterfall and thousands of engineers. I was on a small team that led the move to agile, software-only products.

We had very few frontend developers and distributed offices, so we set up a matrixed team of frontend developers and designers across the product squads. We created Covalent, an open source UI platform built on Angular and Material Design, used by Teradata and Fortune 500 customers. Our goal was speed to productivity, with functional UI in one sprint.

I also led research and design for a real-time streaming data platform and delivered Teradata’s first developer experience: REST APIs and docs alongside monitoring.

**The developer platform**

As director of user experience I led the API and UI platform teams. We delivered enterprise single sign-on and identity, a SQL editor where developers could test queries and write scripts in the browser, an API catalog and developer.teradata.com. The UI team we built inside engineering laid the foundation for our UX organization.

**A global UX organization**

As senior director of user experience and global head of design, I reported to the C-suite and built a centralized global UX organization for a 10,000-person company, with research and design teams, UX labs and design studios. We aligned UX with product management, engineering, sales, support and marketing through the voice of the customer.

In 2018 we launched #OneUX to open the whole company up to UX, starting with a UX Summit and three back-to-back design thinking workshops for UX practitioners, product managers, architects, services and support. We formalized our process as R.A.D.A.R., so every UX request was researched with real users, architected, usability tested and benchmarked.

For years Teradata had built products for one persona, the DBA, and engineers took feature requests as requirements. We ran research with more than 500 customers from 150+ Fortune 1000 companies, cut 17 personas down to 6 and rebuilt them from real customers. Then we redesigned the entire Teradata Vantage product suite, from SQL editors and data catalogs to operations tools, and introduced dark mode.

**The keynote and the results**

In 2019 I presented the work, including dark mode and the launch of developer.teradata.com, in the UX keynote at Teradata Universe in Denver, for 2,000 customers in the room and thousands more streaming online. That year I also co-presented at the Art of Marketing conference in San Diego with Scott Robinson, CEO of Freshform, our UX research partner.

The major success of those years was proving the ROI of UX: lower costs, less churn and faster time to market. I stayed at Teradata until 2021.

## 5. Founding hire for the world’s first AI governance platform

- **Chapter:** 5 of 6, Credo AI
- **Years:** 2021-2024
- **Place:** Galveston, Texas
- **Roles:** Founding head of design (VP of design) at Credo AI
- **Organizations:** [Credo AI](https://www.credo.ai/)
- **Robot part on the 3D site:** head
- **Read on the web:** https://kyleledbetter.com/agent#credo-ai
- **Markdown:** https://kyleledbetter.com/story/credo-ai.md

In 2021 Kyle Ledbetter joined Credo AI as a founding hire and head of design. Before generative AI hit, he designed the world’s first AI governance, risk and compliance platform and helped take the company from seed to Series A.

In Kyle’s words:

In 2021 I joined Credo AI as a founding hire and head of design. I was living in Galveston, Texas. Generative AI hadn’t hit yet, and my job was to design the world’s first AI governance, risk and compliance platform.

I came on before the seed round. Our customers were Fortune 1000 companies with complex AI challenges, and I worked every day with their AI compliance teams and data scientists. The product had to work for data scientists, governance teams, product managers and executives.

I created the design system, the UI patterns and the original prototypes the platform was built on, and those designs were integral to raising our seed round and our Series A.

Our method was human-centered AI, which meant addressing real people’s needs and concerns at every stage of design and development. As I wrote in [Designing Truly Human-Centered AI](https://web.archive.org/web/20230322175232/https://www.credo.ai/blog/designing-truly-human-centered-ai), “Humans are never an afterthought.” We asked the AI and machine learning industry for a culture change, with software and practices built to keep AI compliant and regulated.

That work helped pave the road for today’s AI safety work. In 2024 I spoke about governance and human agency at the World Design Policy Conference, in a talk called [Agency Over AI Agents](https://speakerdeck.com/player/d69bea57470d40dca122c3f2640f5943). I was at Credo AI until 2024, when I co-founded Dreambase.

On the 3D site this chapter is the robot’s head. Its popover reads: “Founding head of design, seed to Series A.

The full story:

**A founding hire**

In 2021 I joined Credo AI as a founding hire and head of design, while living in Galveston, Texas. I came on before the seed round, and before generative AI hit. My job was to design the world’s first AI governance, risk and compliance platform.

Our customers were Fortune 1000 companies, some of the largest corporations in the world, with complex AI challenges. The product had to work for data scientists, governance teams, product managers and executives, and I worked every day with AI compliance teams and data scientists.

**Designing the platform**

I created the design system, the UI patterns and the original prototypes the platform was built on. Those designs were integral to raising our seed round and our Series A. I helped grow the team and the product, and we built the organization and its culture around trust and ethics in AI and machine learning.

**Human-centered AI**

Our method was human-centered AI. The first step in designing the platform was to address real people’s needs and concerns at every stage of design and development. As I wrote on the Credo AI blog, “Humans are never an afterthought.”

We asked the AI and machine learning industry for a culture change, with software and practices built to keep AI compliant and regulated, and we worked to set industry standards for responsible AI around the world. That platform helped pave the road for today’s AI safety work.

**Writing and speaking**

When generative AI arrived, I wrote about how designer-developers could speed up their work with ChatGPT, Midjourney and other tools. In 2024 I spoke at the World Design Policy Conference, part of World Design Capital San Diego + Tijuana, in a talk called Agency Over AI Agents. It was about keeping human agency as AI advances, with risk management beyond compliance and governance frameworks that keep people in control.

I was at Credo AI until 2024, when I co-founded Dreambase.

## 6. Co-Founder & CTO of AI-native analytics platform Dreambase

- **Chapter:** 6 of 6, Dreambase
- **Years:** Since 2024
- **Place:** Austin, Texas
- **Roles:** Co-founder and CTO at Dreambase
- **Organizations:** [Dreambase](https://dreambase.com/), [Supabase](https://supabase.com/)
- **Robot part on the 3D site:** chest
- **Read on the web:** https://kyleledbetter.com/agent#dreambase
- **Markdown:** https://kyleledbetter.com/story/dreambase.md

Kyle Ledbetter is co-founder and CTO of Dreambase (“Your data team of agents.”), an agentic analytics platform partnered with and backed by Supabase. He is based in Austin, Texas.

In Kyle’s words:

In 2024 I co-founded Dreambase with Andy Keil, and I’m the CTO. Dreambase is your data team of agents, and we’re partnered with and backed by Supabase. I’m based in Austin, Texas.

Dreambase works straight from the source of truth, the database.

In nine months Andy and I built and launched three products. We compared prototypes in V0, Bolt and Lovable and tested them with real users within days, as we told the [Supra Insider podcast](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAFkApEZi9o&t=3663s).

Natural language interfaces for data have been part of my work for a long time. In 2014, at MicroStrategy, I worked on natural language and search as the interface for BI. In 2016 I prototyped Analytics Hub, a question-and-answer platform for enterprise analytics.

On the 3D site this chapter is the robot’s chest. Its popover reads: “Your data team of agents.” Its panel reads: “Andy Keil and I started Dreambase in 2024. Dreambase is your data team of agents, and we’re partnered with and backed by Supabase. In nine months we built and launched three products. I’m based in Austin, Texas.”

The full story:

**Co-founding Dreambase**

In 2024 Andy Keil and I co-founded Dreambase (“Your data team of agents.”), and I’m the CTO. Dreambase is an agentic analytics platform, partnered with and backed by Supabase, and it works straight from the source of truth, the database. I’m based in Austin, Texas.

**Three products in nine months**

In nine months Andy and I built and launched three products. We went from whiteboard sessions to multimodal prompts, compared prototypes in V0, Bolt and Lovable, and tested them with real users within days. We told that story on episode 59 of the Supra Insider podcast in 2025.

That year our products for teams on Supabase included product analytics dashboards that read usage straight from the database with no third-party tools, health checks and row level security help for Supabase projects, and internal tools that use Supabase’s own sign-in.

In 2026 Crunchbase News covered our $3.7M funding round.

**Data for agents**

My writing in 2026 is about the data AI agents need. They need refined company data: defined KPIs, trusted metrics and reusable datasets, with the definitions and history behind them, shared by people and their agents. I’ve made the case for a data factory for agents, with the same quality loops as a software factory, refining raw data into business metrics and knowledge.

I’ve also written about running user research with a panel of AI agents, and many of the posts on the Dreambase blog are mine.

At DDX San Diego in 2024 I gave a talk called Augmented Design at the Speed of AI, on how AI is changing design right now and how top teams speed up while keeping creative control. I also joined a panel there with Sebastian Gier of DDX, Morgan Quinn of Google Gemini and Benjamin Kuhn of Mercedes-Benz.

**Answers from data**

Helping people get answers from data has been part of my work for a long time. At eBay, DataHub opened up 52 petabytes of data to analysts, data scientists and business users. In 2014, at MicroStrategy, I worked on natural language and search as the interface for BI. In 2016 I prototyped Analytics Hub, a question-and-answer platform for enterprise analytics that sent the questions it couldn’t answer to a community forum.
