More about Dinesh Agarwal
I help you adopt AI in your business
I am a research scientist turned entrepreneur.
I have worked on close to 30 startups and launched them successfully. I have grown B2B startups to over 100,000 users and had one successful exit.
Although I loved every second of my life as a researcher, I always wanted to become an entrepreneur. I have over a decade long experience managing software development teams. I founded my first company when I was a Sophomore at school.
My area of expertise as a researcher was cloud computing with over 4 years of experience working with complex data sets, algorithms, and applications.
One of the applications that I primarily worked on had the potential to employ thousands of computers in the cloud.
We tested this with 100 computers and reduced the traditional processing time of 6 hours to less than 10 minutes.
The application helps find the closest safe rescue shelters in the event of a natural disaster such as a hurricane or Tsunami.
My Ph.D. dissertation on frameworks to convert your legacy software to cloud-ready without a learning curve has been featured by HPC in the cloud, a leading journal on cloud computing. My papers have been published in reputed IEEE and ACM conferences.
I hold multiple patents in my field of research.
I am now a full-time founder. I spend my time working on solving challenges to grow our startup so that we can help our users become at least 10x more productive.
I regularly share my expertise with world’s leading publications. If you want to work with me on a publication message me.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"At DevX.Work, we’ve greatly benefited from our association with eChai. Their events and networking forums have connected us with high-potential startups, ecosystem leaders, and innovation-driven professionals — many of whom have become valuable partners, collaborators, and even clients. What stands out most is the openness and accessibility of the community — whether you're an early-stage founder or an experienced entrepreneur, eChai provides a welcoming space to learn, collaborate, and grow. It's more than just a network — it's a catalyst for real, collaborative growth. We’re proud to be part of the eChai community. Highly recommended for any organization aiming to grow within the startup space."

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."

“When we launched LegalWiz.in back in 2016, concept of procuring legal and compliance services through a digital commerce platform wasn't as prominent in India. eChai played a significant role in providing the early adopters, and building significant positioning in the startup fraternity. Overtime, eChai grew to be a massive network of like-minded entrepreneurs and extended that benefit to all the members in a true "co-rise" spirit. I personally love to attend eChai events, learn from subject matter experts who share relatable and actionable insights and experiences. For startup journeys, it is so important to be surrounded by people who can add relevance, perspective, and push you to do better. Most importantly a group of people where you aren't being judged about things going right or wrong, but be a motivational force that keeps you going, yet keeping you in check. eChai is that place for me!”
