T Praveen Kumar — Co-Founder
Over the last 17 years, I’ve learned that most product problems aren’t really product problems. They’re clarity problems. Or behaviour problems. Or “we’re not talking about the real issue yet” problems.I’ve seen this across Swiggy, SuprDaily, Myra (acquired by Medlife) and now in my consulting work with CRED.Different teams. Different contexts.Same underlying pattern.When teams don’t know what the real problem is, they build faster.They fill roadmaps.They ship more.They stay busy.But the business doesn’t move.At Swiggy (SuprDaily) and Myra, things shifted only when we paused and looked closely at what was actually going on, and not what we assumed.That clarity and sharp insight led to interventions that worked, not just ones that looked good on paper.These experiences shaped how I think about products today.When you understand the truth, direction becomes obvious.And teams finally start moving in the same direction.Today, I work with founders as a Product Strategy & Clarity Consultant helping them, - Identify the real user & business problem - Sharpen product direction and what to build next - Understand behaviour vs expectation gaps - Align teams - Use practical AI where it genuinely helps the businessWith everything happening in AI today, I don’t recommend it unless it truly makes sense.I still start with the real problem.If an AI-based solution genuinely helps the business by reducing effort, improving clarity, or creating better outcomes, then I recommend it.If not, I don’t.The clarity still comes from experience.If you’re a founder trying to understand why something isn’t working or what to build nextor why your team feels stuckI help you see what’s underneath all of it.Because clarity isn’t fast.And it isn’t loud.But once it’s there, everything else becomes easier.If you want to think through a problem together, I’m around.
