Founder (Ever tried, ever failed!)

Aug 2022 – Aug 2023 · 1 yr · Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

Building an AI-first RevOps product for ACV expansion.
Unfortunately, decided to shut it down. It was a difficult pill to swallow but gained a lot of learnings on venture building - functional and more importantly, behavioural. Plan to use these when I take the plunge again!
Activities:
Customer (design partners) conversations/closures
MVP roadmap and development (Figma, Bubble)
Team building (founding team)
Market research + competitive benchmarking
Fundraising
Switching lights on and off and everything else!
Happy to discuss in detail 1:1.
