In the Jungle with Jonathan Chak. VIP guest Justin Wastnage of Vloggi

Justin Wastnage, Founder of Vloggi, joined Jonathan Chak on the inaugural episode of In the Jungle to discuss the realities of building a startup in Australia. The conversation covers Vloggi’s evolution from a consumer video app to an enterprise platform focused on rights-managed, human-generated video and compliance-grade evidence. A central theme is the compliance trap facing many startups: enterprise clients require SOC 2 and ISO 27001, but achieving those certifications requires the capital that enterprise revenue would unlock. The episode also explores video provenance in the age of AI, lessons from fundraising, and the practical challenges of scaling from Australia into global markets. It’s a candid look at the challenges — and long-term opportunities — in building a scalable technology company from Australia
