Ambitious Founder,

Are you wrestling with the zero-to-one stage?

Don't worry. You're not alone. Whether you're a starry-eyed beginner or a battle-scarred repeat founder, that first leap from idea to traction feels like scaling Everest in flip-flops.And just when you find your footing, the Gen AI platform shift rumbles through, shaking the very mountain beneath you.

And if you're an Indian founder setting your sights on the global stage?

Whew. That's like trying to transplant a banyan tree from Bangalore to the Bay Area. It takes time, patience, and a whole lot of grit. Three times more compared to Bay Area natives.

But here's the thing: You don't have to do this alone.Imagine having a secret passageway across that startup chasm.
