Riya Jain — Co-Founder

☕ I count my career in coffee cups and “aha!” moments. Cup #1 - Lockdown cold coffee Stuck at home in 2020, I wondered, “Why can’t mental-health help feel… normal?” Forty-five minutes, I was prototyping a wellness platform. I learned how to turn empathy into feature specs for the first time ever and launched a mental-health foundation to help students handle pandemic chaos. That first venture taught me the power of listening until user pain points practically write the roadmap. Just listened to what was being asked for. Cups #2 & #3 - Making my coffee stronger and no sugar Up all night with three friends and a half-baked EdTech idea that became my first startup. At the same time I brewed up Collegepreneurs, hosting 100+ IG Lives on ventures started by students. Cup #4 - Almond-Milk Upgrade My first real PM tour: I joined FrontRow as an intern and hustled my way up to Product Manager. Head-first into growth loops, I learned to love scrappy wins, got comfortable “playing dirty” with data, and embraced the fail-faster mantra. Every day was a new lesson and a fresh challenge - and it cemented my obsession with moving fast while learning faster. Cup #5 - Things got bitter - Ice Americano My first time captaining a true B2B ship while still helming the B2C deck at HungerBox. On the consumer side I turned lunchtime chaos into ease as I worked on guest ordering, in-app help, friction-free payments. Behind the scenes I brewed an AI stack: Digital Dietician for diners, a chat agent that answers admin questions, and a recommendation engine that knows what will sell. Cup #6 - Comforting Moka Pot Today I pour my energy into Working With Coffee, my content playground. I spend my weekends at Airtribe, mentoring aspiring product folks on how to use AI and make better products. Evenings find me in Vibe Coding, tinkering with no-code stacks and spinning up mini-SaaS ideas just to see what sticks. I’m always scouting the next venture - the kettle’s on, the beans are fresh, and the next big cup is only one bold change away. Let’s Swap Stories If… Your product puzzle needs an outside eye (no buzzword bingo, promise). You’re scaling AI features and want trenches > theory. You just want Bangalore café recs
