# Alex Kehr > Founder, Superlocal (acquired by Foursquare) · Principal Product Manager (Design + Engineering) Location: San Francisco, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/alexkehr I design and build consumer and enterprise products - especially where AI, search, and real-world context intersect. My startup, Superlocal, created a novel AI-powered search experience that rethinks how people discover places and information around them. It caught the attention of Foursquare, which acquired the company. I now lead design and engineering for Superlocal at Foursquare, helping turn our consumer product into an enterprise-grade API platform that will power place search for some of the most prominent AI companies. I’m a hands-on product designer and technical lead - I’m an engineer turned product designer. My focus is always on translating technical breakthroughs into products that feel effortless, inevitable, and human. Highlights & Strengths • Founded and scaled Superlocal from concept to acquisition by Foursquare • Designed an AI search model that combines user context, location data, and intent understanding • Lead multidisciplinary teams across design, engineering, and product strategy • Experienced with API platforms, consumer app growth, and data-driven product decisions I believe the next great wave of software won’t just answer questions, it will understand context. I’m driven by that future and by building products that help people and organizations navigate it. ## Work Experience ### Principal Product Designer & Tech Lead, Superlocal @ Foursquare Jan 2025 – Present | San Francisco, California, United States • Lead the Superlocal product and AI search initiatives post-acquisition. • Oversees the operations of Superlocal, which operates independently under the Foursquare company. • Building enterprise API version of our Superlocal consumer AI place search. ### CEO (Acquired by Foursquare) @ Superlocal Jan 2022 – Present | Los Angeles County, California, United States acquired by foursquare in april 2025 the social map. backed by general catalyst, dcm, slow ventures, science, and m13. ### Founder In Residence @ Science Jan 2017 – Jan 2025 | Greater Los Angeles Area ### Co-Founder @ Pop Inc.
