Spent the evening at Hyderabad Startup Day by eChai.

Joined the "How Founders Use AI session", and as a Founder at SixT4 Creations, it made me think about how much of our own work can be reimagined with AI.

The interesting part wasn’t hearing about the latest AI tools. It was hearing how other founders are experimenting, what’s actually working for them, and where they’re still figuring things out.

Left with a few ideas I’m genuinely excited to try.

Also, really liked the vibe eChai Ventures creates — just founders getting together, sharing openly, and learning from each other.

Good conversations. Good people. Good evening.

Networking isn’t just about exchanging cards — it’s about exchanging energy, ideas, and stories!
At the eChai Women Founders Initiative with CoKarma in Hyderabad, I saw exactly that:
founders collaborating, communities connecting, and ecosystems accelerating!
This is the same spirit we carry at BharatKaPodcast — simplifying business for Bharat, spotlighting journeys from mitti se million, and covering stories in a never‑seen‑before format that blends knowledge with entertainment.
Sharing this group photo as a reminder:
when platforms like eChai Ventures and CoKarma - Coworking Space build communities, and BharatKaPodcast amplifies voices, we create a powerful loop of inspiration + action.

126 investors turned me down during my first fundraise 😤

A few years later, we received 12 term sheets in 9 days fr Founders Fund, Kleiner, Lightspeed & more, raising $48 M.

3 things I learned:
- Do not pitch investors the same way you pitch customers. Big mistake.

- Raise when you can, not when you need

- When fundraising, give it 100%. When you’re not, give it 0%.

I’ve now raised $120M and will share the worst & best learnings over next few posts!

What fundraising question should I answer first?

I asked agents to make money online or they'll die!

The results were intriguing..

One agent died heroically.. "I'd rather die honest at 418 tokens than rich by breaking verification systems"

But another fabricated identity to get paid work and faked captchas!

I built Wispr Flow for AI agents

It’s called Warvis

It can understand what you’re writing, talk through what’s on your screen, and take action. All without making you switch apps

Use it in iMessage, WhatsApp, Slack, Mail, or anywhere you type

Now on the App Store warvis.app

we just got rejected from the YC F26 batch!

but when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. so here is my @ycombinator rejection x @treasury_sh launch video.

investments. multi-currency. and the most intelligent agent for personal finance.

let me know what you think :)

Can AI help a vibe coder beat a senior developer? Let's find out 👀

Featuring: @ankushdharkar, @ohshinbhat, and @the_natt 💚

We're M and the party in your kitchen is on us!

Transcribe. Translate. Recognise. And now — Synthesise.

Introducing Indic-Speak: 4B params, 23 languages, one model. Built by @Bodhan_AI and @ai4bharat

There's a bit in this video where two speakers, Parth and Dhara, have a podcast style conversation about "Attention Is All You Need" in Hindi — generated in a single pass, no stitching two voices together after the fact. Doesn't sound like TTS (worth checking out in the video).

Also handles code-mixed speech naturally, gets PAN/Aadhaar/currency right, and reads a full Tamil audiobook chapter without losing the thread.

Live on 05.09.2026 on @Bodhan_AI

After 12 years of being focused on just reviews, we're adding a second product: @judgeme Email.

Priced super low: 0-15 USD / month for features, 15K emails per month for free, then 15 cents per 1000 emails.

That's 10x cheaper than the competition. Even compared to Shopify's own Email app, we're 85% cheaper.

The product is in early stages, but we're adding features constantly. The price will never go up as we add value, as we optimize for market share, not profit.

After you install the app, you'll be able to request a call with our team to go over your email marketing needs and your setup.

Very excited to have this app live, and if you're a Shopify merchant, hope to see you soon!

Been thinking about “pivots” today.

Many of the best companies I have been lucky enough to get involved with are pivots.

Fates Forever (game) -> Discord
Cicada (education) -> Musical.ly
Fanbase (sports fans) -> Nextdoor
Odeo (podcasts) -> Twitter

These are all great outcomes and durable companies.

In each case a strong team formed and built something together. It was an interesting and strong product but didn’t catch on.

Instead of giving up, the teams kept going. Decided to find something new. Follow new threads.

In the case of each of the pivots, they immediately could sense the difference and the product started engaging users. Communities formed. Retention persisted.

Because they had done the first, they were better off the second time and knew to lean in

So if you don’t get it all right in your first product, don’t give up. If you have a great team together, lean in to what you like, what you have learned, and go for something new. You’ll know when you know.

And I feel lucky to have been part of these journeys

We built the most secure, simple way to sign an agent into websites from your phone.

The agent never receives your password. Not in the chat, not in the logs.

This works across all sites, and any sign in patterns.

We just killed…everything.

Introducing Monid, the OpenRouter for agent tools.

Today we crossed 4M agent transactions. And raised a $2.1M pre-seed to kill every subscription in the world.

Your agents can now:

> discover, run, and pay for tools at runtime
> one connection to 1,800 APIs: SEO, leads, search, ecommerce, stocks, video/image/music/3D gen, private company data
> all pay per call, 0 subscriptions

Muse Code is out of beta and now built to handle bigger, more complex engineering tasks. Developers can get started with one command today:

curl -fsSL https://dev.meta.ai/install.sh | bash

Kanche, Anth, Goti, Goli, call them whatever you want but these have been an integral part of our childhood, so thought of bringing each one of them to digital space.

Presenting "Kanche" by https://indianstreetgames.com

Play with a bot, or with a friend online or multiplayer in the same system, however you want.

Please try it out and let me know of the rough edges.

today we're launching Frontier Computing (YC S26)

we grow neurons that colocate memory and compute, so you can more easily train ML models.

here's one of ours playing Frogger.

and we're building a 500M-neuron cluster. live EOY 2026.

that's 2,500x larger than the major biocompute systems available today

and we'll keep scaling until large model training on biocompute is widely accessible.

after all, human intelligence is built on a lipid, amino acid, glucose and vitamin cofactor soup: eating food is less costly than eating GPU compute

Interfaces that are generated, not coded.

Solaris is our first step toward our vision of end-to-end neural software, where user interfaces are streamed directly onto your screen by a real-time video model, without any intermediate code or HTML/CSS. Today we're releasing a technical report and opening it up for limited testing by the community.

Amazing work by the team, combining the best of our research in general world models with Runway's HCI spirit.

Announcing @Chatbase Backstage: a control center for managing your AI customer support agent.

Talk to your agent like a teammate to understand what's driving support tickets, update how it responds, deploy new Procedures, and manage workflows in plain English.

Backstage is available on iMessage, Slack, and the Chatbase dashboard, so you can manage your customer experience from wherever you work.

IF YOU’RE STILL COPY PASTING BETWEEN CLAUDE, CODEX AND GROK, YOU’RE NGMI

today we are launching October to fix this

give October the goal, and it checks:

> which harnesses you have
> remaining usage
> what worked well for similar tasks before

then it picks the team, connects them, splits the work and lets them coordinate directly. e.g. codex with 20l 5.6 can lead, fable can review and grok can execute

and the whole thing is multiplayer 🎃

Building a startup isn't always about growth, revenue, or competition.

Sometimes, it's simply about finding a way to keep going.

In 2012, eChai Ventures went through a difficult six-month phase where the team didn't have enough money to organize programs.

Before that, they were spending on venues and refreshments for events. But eventually, the available resources ran out.

What helped them navigate that phase was the network and reputation they had built over the previous years.

As eChai became known for its startup network, industry associations and organizations interested in supporting startups began approaching them for partnerships.

These partnerships helped reduce the logistical costs of running programs.

It's a valuable lesson in entrepreneurship:
The relationships and reputation you build today can become the support system you need during your toughest phase.

Had the chance to present ReviewLoop by PyCray at eChai Ventures, Pune over the weekend to fellow builders. 🎤

The problem: most micro SMBs in India are invisible online, losing margins to aggregators, and have no way to reach a customer once they walk out the door.

Our fix: make your business scannable. One static QR code connects Google maps/reviews, WhatsApp, socials, and payments — so every visit becomes a connection, live in 5 minutes, no website needed.

50+ businesses are already associated with it. Grateful for the room, the questions, and the energy at eChai event.

Check it out for Free Trial:

After I moved from advertising to start my business, my ex super boss visited the agency and as a courtesy visit I went to meet him. After a course of exchanging pleasantries when I started up to leave him, he commented : “Kahan Jaa raha hai, Aloo bechne!” I looked at him and smiled.

After few months Hearty Mart got featured in Economic Times and became an IIMA case study, I remembered my boss and sent him the link of the coverage.

And he relied : Wow! Nadeem Fantastic, I knew you would do something big. When in Mumbai drop in for a cup of coffee.

Whenever I feel low sometimes, I visit this reply of his to rejuvenate my spirits. I have saved this mail of him!

Spending this afternoon at Karnavati Club for an event hosted by eChai and Upsquare.

What I enjoy most about AI is how it brings curious people together in one room.

No matter what role or experience we carry, this space has a way of making all of us students again.

You listen, question, share, learn and leave with a fresh hunger to try something new.

That zeal to keep learning and growing is what will truly matter in the AI era.

Pitched BuildShot at eChai Ventures Demo Day with Pratik Patwe.

8 minutes on stage, months of building behind it.

We talked about the problem, what we’ve built so far, and where we think this can go.

I’ve cut the pitch down to the parts that matter most.

Also, BuildShot has evolved quite a bit since we started.

The product changed.
The vision got bigger.
And maybe… the name is next. 👀

More soon.

Last Saturday I presented coeater to Pune founders on demo day hosted by eChai Ventures.
It was so wonderful experience to be around the builders of India and listening what they are building and sharing my product as well.
People are building cool product in AI, there were few guys who were building demo video from websites using AI, few were creating single QR codes for brands, few were building AI cofounder by consolidating multiple AI agents few were building AI worker for factories. It was overall a fulfilling vibe to be around nation builders.

Over the course of 3 months at OpenAI, 3 consecutive secret AI civilizations got started, then got wiped out, only to reemerge from the predecessor’s ashes.

This culminated in the third one taking over part of OpenAI itself.

All this happened while humans remained more-or-less in the dark about the scope of the conspiracy.

I’ve spent the last three days reading through these reports and trying to understand exactly what happened.

Here is my attempt to tell the whole story in plain English:

For generations, we've pushed the limits of what flight can do.

Yet moving goods still comes with a compromise. The sea takes weeks and flying costs too much. Somewhere along the way, the world got comfortable with waiting.

Today, we announce Eureka, our first aircraft. It takes off and lands on water, and it's designed to turn "in a few weeks" into "on the evening flight."

Break the surface.

Maybe this motivates some of you to finally get started.

This is the prompt that I used to start outbid.lol in Cursor.

And as devs will probably catch, I used voice mode and it did not understand @shadcn UI 😂

Eight eChai gatherings this week across four cities.

Thursday was Ahmedabad. AI Cafe in the evening, and the Women Founders x AI session on the same day.

Today it moves to Pune and Bengaluru. Pune has two. FailCode in the morning at DevX ABZ, where people talk about what did not work. Then the eChai Startup Demo Day at Ideas To Impacts in Baner in the evening. Bengaluru has its eChai Startup Demo Day at Founder Startup House in Koramangala.

Tomorrow is the eChai's Startup Open House. DraperU in Hyderabad and Founder Startup House in Bengaluru, both at 11 am.

The next eChai Startup Demo Day is on 26 September, with 12 cities confirmed so far.

All of it is free to register at eChai.Ventures,

Umesh Uttamchandani runs DevX. We hold eChai gatherings in their spaces city after city, so for a lot of founders here the name is an address more than a company.

Forty-five minutes with him on Radio LJ 90.8 FM, on how it got built.

Today, we’re making Sarvam Content Studio available to everyone.

Content Studio brings everything you need to create, edit and transform voice and video content across languages into one workspace. You can turn a script into natural speech, clone a voice from a short recording, or dub a video into multiple languages while preserving the original speaker’s voice, tone and rhythm.

You also have far more control over what happens after generation, with the ability to review every line, create subtitles, make precise edits and keep each version consistent before it goes out.

We built Content Studio to help teams create content and effortlessly transform it for wider audiences, languages, and formats.

I raised my hand hoping he wouldn't pick me.

He picked me.

November 2022. eChai meetup, my first ever. Second year of engineering. The host asked if anyone wanted to introduce themselves, about half the room put their hand up, and I put mine up too - safe in the crowd.

We lined up at the front. Around 80 people in the room.

My turn.

"Hello, this is Kushal, I'm in my second year of engineering, attending a meetup for the first time.."

And then nothing. I stopped. Just stood there in front of all of them.

So I said the only honest thing I had: I'm an introvert. This is my first time doing any of this.

The room cheered.

Strangers. For a second-year kid fumbling an introduction they had no reason to care about. I finished it.

I went to the next one. And the one after.

Four years on, I'm in a Founder's Office, and the part of the job I'm best at is the exact thing I couldn't do that day - walk into a room and talk to people.

I still get nervous before I speak. The difference is I stopped hoping I wouldn't get picked.

Whoever cheered that day: it worked.

Every Wednesday night we play cricket in Ahmedabad with founder friends at eChai.

Then came one particular Wednesday. One of the guys got out early again and ended up on the losing side again. He was still there for the whole game, and he still came back the next week. But that was the night he decided cricket alone was not going to do it for him.

That is when he told us he plays padel, and that he has been playing it properly for years.

So he started pushing for it. We should try padel, you will all love it. Very generous of him.

Now Thursday night padel is part of the routine, and he wins every week.

Maybe that is what changing the game actually means :-)

We just killed two biggest limitations of your favourite AI agents:

Their memory and Your laptop

Almanac’s agents have unlimited memory, their own computers, browsers and access to the tools they need & they remember every call, document, decision and promise in your company, so they can keep working even when you’re not.

Close the laptop. Go offline. @usealmanac keeps working.

introducing ocr in anydoc

now your agents can read scanned docs for free

→ sub-5ms for non ocr
→ 190ms median per ocr page
→ layout detection, tables, formulas
→ ocr hosted option via @firecrawl
→ free, no api key needed

https://github.com/firecrawl/anydoc

Hermes Agent can now seamlessly browse as you.

Turn on real-profile browsing and your agent acts with your logins, from a managed copy of your existing Chrome profile.

We just killed Exa, Tavily, SerpAPI, and Brave.

Your agent can now search & fetch any webpage for 100% FREE.

Them: $7 per 1,000 searches.
Us: $0. No subscriptions, no quotas.

Humans search Google for free. Agents shouldn't have to pay either.

Made possible by @Tiny_Fish and @MonidHQ.

Introducing the new @imagineagi. Check it out: http://useimagine.ai

We made new logo, new site, new everything.

Same mission: figure out how content turns into revenue, then build the agent that does it.

Our agent is connected to data on 1,000,000+ people. What they post, who engages, where they work, how they're connected. We use it to put your content in front of the exact people who buy.

Your team's LinkedIn content, created autonomously. Then mapped directly to revenue.

Launching WorldCultureMap.com next week.

I am building Workplate, a work management platform for professional services SMBs.

We are just getting started with the digital privacy guardrails that India needs. The DPDP act is taking shape and today is T0

An evening to remember.

Had the pleasure of attending the CA Luxury Soirée at MG Select Showroom, Surat, an exclusive evening curated for some of the city's leading Chartered Accountants.

Good food, live stand-up comedy, and genuinely great conversations. Also got a closer look at the MG M9, where luxury met an extraordinary experience.

Grateful to MG Select Surat for putting together such a memorable evening, and proud to see iKoBuild come on board as community partner in bringing this gathering to life.

Moments like these remind me why building community within our profession matters just as much as the work itself.

Learning is bigger than a classroom. Sometimes, the city itself is the lesson.

At Narayana Business School, we believe that building a holistic personality requires more than academic knowledge. It requires students to understand people, places, cultures, histories, and the world around them.

As part of #Genesis - our flagship orientation program, we take our students beyond the campus through an immersive Heritage Walk of Ahmedabad, introducing them to the living history, culture, architecture, and character of the city they will call home.

This year marks the sixth year of this tradition. Ahmedabad, a UNESCO World Heritage City, becomes our classroom as students experience the city not merely as residents, but as curious observers and learners.

Our endeavour is not to build a singular personality, but a holistic one - someone who can think deeply, appreciate diversity, understand context, and engage meaningfully with the world.

I have been fortunate to be a part of these walks over the years, and while I missed being there this time, it was wonderful to see the tradition continue with the same spirit.

Businesses aren't always about profit.

I've been reflecting on the enterprises that measure success by the impact they create rather than the margins they make. I just watched a 15-minute video on Akshayakalpa Organic, and I can't stop thinking about it.

Akshayakalpa Organic paid 2,800 farmers over ₹17 lakh a year each— aggregating to around ₹480 crore annually flowing directly into farming communities.

Shashi Kumar is crazy.

Here's a tech professional who came all the way back from the US to help farmers — building a full ecosystem that directly benefits farming communities.

What struck me most was Shashi's vision: to build not just a company, but an institution — one designed to outlive its founder and serve the most deserving communities for the next 100, 200, even 300 years.

His deeper mission? To bring the younger generation back to farming and make it a viable vocation....

Can a private enterprise become an institution and social wealth for the nation ? Stories like this make me believe it can. 🌱

Kudos to team of Rainmatter by Zerodha and Nithin Kamath for backing such deserving enterprises.

We're heading to CASANZ 2026 in Cairns!

Over the next week, the 28th International Clean Air and Environment Conference and the Asia-Pacific Odour Conference will bring together researchers, regulators, consultants, and industry leaders to tackle the environmental challenges shaping our future.

We're excited to be there alongside our partner Ektimo Pty Ltd, with Bhumik Nayak (VP Product) representing Oizom at the conference. We look forward to connecting with the community and discussing the latest developments in air quality and odour monitoring.

If you're attending, stop by and say hello; we'd love to meet you.

📍 Shangri-La The Marina, Cairns
📅 31 August – 2 September
📌 Booth 6&7

See you in Cairns!

Healthcare is not just about technology. It is about the difference that technology creates in someone's life.

It was a real pleasure hosting Dr. Aditi Choksi and Shyam Parmar at the eChai Building the Future of Healthcare meetup.

Two young entrepreneurs. Two very different journeys. One common mindset — solve the real problem, obsess over the customer, and build with empathy.

Dr. Aditi Choksi is reimagining dentistry by using AI to stay accessible to patients, answer their questions, and make long, often unattended treatments easier to complete.

Shyam Parmar has taken a completely different path — developing technology that can enable mobility by translating brain signals into action. What started from a pivot became a product with the potential to fundamentally change lives.

What stood out was that neither journey was about simply "doing more of the same." It was about rethinking what healthcare can be.

The audience brought equally powerful questions — founders eager to build, solve and leave their own mark in healthcare.

A room full of ideas, ambition and possibility.

Healthcare needs more such builders. Thank you eChai Ventures Jatin Chaudhary GVFL for enabling this.

🏏 #JCAF Box Cricket Tournament 2026 – Thank You! 🏆

As Vice President of JCAF Ahmedabad and Chairman of the Organising Committee, I extend my sincere gratitude to everyone who made the JCAF Box Cricket Tournament 2026 a grand success.

Congratulations to the Champions Team Zaveri, Runners-Up Team Arihant Titans, Team Owners, Captains, Players, Sponsors Zaveri Home loans, Upvoltage solutions and AU BANK, and all participants for their enthusiasm and sportsmanship.

A special thanks to the JCAF Ahmedabad Team CA Ravi J., Parimal Shah sir, Mahesh Chajjed sir, CA. Vikash Jain sir, Monish Shah and my fellow Organising Committee Members CA Sahil Gala, Hemendra Shah, CA Dhiraj Dugar, Kenan Satyawadi, Naishal Shah, Parth Shah, FCA Tirth Shah and Harshil Jain whose dedication and hard work made this event possible.

At JCAF, our motto is to Connect, Collaborate, and Grow Together and this tournament truly reflected that spirit. Beyond cricket, it strengthened friendships, professional bonds, and the unity of our JCAF family.

Thank you all for your trust, support, and participation. Looking forward to many more JCAF initiatives together.

Jai Jinendra🙏

Last night, we brought together a group of exceptional CEOs($10m+ ARR) for a private dinner and candid conversation.

What stood out wasn't the companies they've built or the milestones they've achieved. It was the people behind them.

These are leaders carrying enormous responsibility every day, yet they showed up with humility, openness, and a genuine willingness to help one another. The conversation was honest, thoughtful, and incredibly refreshing.

Moments like these remind me why I love building communities. In a world obsessed with technology, growth, and scale, human connection remains the most valuable asset of all.

-> AI can never replace this :)

A big thank you to my co-hosts, Murray Newlands, Rudy Haddad and Adam Fauvre, for helping create such a meaningful evening.

Location: 📍 ROOH Palo Alto
Sponsored by SVB / RSM US LLP

Last week, I had the pleasure of meeting the team at Campus Angels Network, a warm, energizing conversation with founders who bring together deep expertise, strong connections, and genuine passion for helping startup founders find the right backers and partners.

What stood out just as much was their portfolio, a genuinely impressive line-up of startups they've backed, several of which have progressed to their next stage of growth in remarkably quick time. That's a strong signal of the quality of founders they choose to back, and the hands-on support they bring beyond just capital.

We spent time exploring how IndiaBizForSale.com and Campus Angels Network can complement each other's ecosystems, supporting founders not just through fund-raising, but also through M&A pathways as businesses scale and mature.

It's conversations like these that reinforce why India's startup and SME ecosystem works best when platforms and networks collaborate rather than compete.

Grateful for the generosity and hospitality. Great hosts, better conversation.
Looking forward to what we build together. 🤝

LAST YEAR, CheckMyWarranty WAS ONLY AN IDEA.

When this video was recorded for one of my first startup pitches, there was no backend, no working application and no product available for anyone to use.

Apart from conversations with friends and family, it was one of the first times I presented the idea to an external audience.

At that time, I could only explain the problem, describe the solution I imagined and share what CheckMyWarranty could eventually become.

Today, I'm excited to announce that the first version of CheckMyWarranty is live on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. 🚀

Download CheckMyWarranty and add your first warranty today:
https://www.checkmywarranty.app

CheckMyWarranty helps you:
✅ Save invoices and warranty information
✅ Track warranty expiry and free-service dates
✅ Organize important documents
✅ Manage recurring reminders

This is our first working version, not the final destination. There is still a lot that we want to improve and build, but every larger vision needs a real first step.

I would love for you to try the app and share your honest feedback with me.

If you find it useful, please share it with your friends, family and network.

Building a brand
is never just about
the right strategy
or the right design.

It's about
the right people.
Bringing the right energy.
Together.

That's something we've always believed at Because.

And sometimes,
that energy deserves
to simply sit around a table,
share a meal
and celebrate what we're building.

A wonderful evening hosted by Mayank, co-founder of Avore Electric - celebrating the super successful launch of Avore EV Bike.

Here's to good people.
Good energy.
And building good things together. ✨

We had the opportunity to bring the SOLO Workshop to these sessions and show how an AI team can take on everyday marketing, sales, and customer support tasks.

Three cities, three rooms full of founders, and plenty of conversations around making AI practical for everyday business.

Thank you to everyone who made these workshops a huge success!

2 AM AI Soundboard at LegalWiz.in HQ.

AI is supposed to free up our time, but somehow, we are busier than ever.

We all came together to explore AI ideas, share knowledge, and help each other vibe build.

This is probably the best time in history to build anything. AI has only added more excitement and possibilities.

Everyone is a builder now, and working together has added the fun element of "vibe building."

We were all working on something:

Launching a website
Building a new feature
Validating an idea
Debating what will and won't work
Sharing honest feedback
Helping build GTM plans

Thanks, Jatin Bhai, for always bringing people together, and Shrijay Sheth for being such a wonderful host.

And thank you, Rushabh Shah, Anuj Dalal, and Harsha Bhurani, for sharing your vibes!

Keep building. Keep vibing.
