Singaravel Inbanathan — CEO

I've spent 13 years building revenue operations inside startups — across Pet Care, EdTech, Logistics, and Hospitality. OYO. WheelsEye. Entri. Vetic. Four different industries. Same operating problem every time: How do you grow fast without the wheels falling off? Here's what I learned: Revenue doesn't scale. Systems do. → At Entri, I built Tamil Nadu from zero — hit ₹1 Cr MRR in 15 months, grew revenue 100% YoY, and scaled ARPU from ₹3K to ₹40K in four months through one counterintuitive program pivot. → At WheelsEye, I took South India alliance revenue from ₹30L to ₹1Cr/month in 7 months — 3X growth — by rebuilding how the company thought about channel partnerships. → At OYO, I managed enterprise B2B across Tamil Nadu and won a Certificate of Excellence for highest corporate NRV growth. → At Vetic, I launched 2 full-service pet clinics in Chennai, managing multi-unit P&L for India's fastest-growing premium pet care chain. Today, I operate at the intersection of revenue growth and AI. I use AI to compress decision cycles, build leverage into business functions, and help teams do more with less. Not as a tool — as an operating layer. I write about this for the 2,600+ operators and business leaders who follow me here. --- If you're landing on this profile, here's who I can actually help: ► Founder or investor exploring Pet Care, EdTech, or consumer business growth → Let's talk strategy and GTM. ► Business Head or operator looking to build AI-native workflows into your team → DM me with what you're trying to solve. ► Recruiter or talent partner building a senior ops or growth team → Reach out with the role brief. ► Curious about UpliftEdu or want to collaborate on AI-native learning programs → Visit upliftedu.in Everyone else — follow along. I post about operator frameworks, AI in business, and startup realities a few times a week.
