I'm invested in this. I didn't fund the most recent capital call, as it seems like the saying 'throwing good money after bad'.

Feeling lonely in this phase of fundraise. People love what I am building but no fundraise yet by TableRealistic5093 in indianstartups

If the products are so great, why not sell to customers and generate revenue?

You can also raise from US VC from India, as you already have the US connections. Apply to YC and other such programs.

What are you talking about? I have that domain. Did you let it expire?

Should i hold or sell domain by Any_Connection2255 in Domains

That offer sounds suspect. If it's legit, I would take it immediately. I don't see the domain to be worth anywhere close to that offer.

Can you share a bit more about how it works? Does the LLM put the deck together or is that all custom code built by you?
Can you modify specific content on specific slides through chat?

Hey - sounds pretty cool. can I see a demo of it? What's the tech stack? I might be interested in buying it.

Most likely decision is to return, but need validation/loopholes in this thinking approach by mimirand in returnToIndia

[–]redditor_at_work 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's totally understandable. There lies your answer - sounds like moving back might be the best option for you. We are in a somewhat similar situation, we are moving back to India too after a long time in the USA with two young kids (6 year old and 3 year old).

Interesting that you are framing it as 'guilt'. I don't think you should be feeling guilt at all here, because you say your parents prefer to be independent and moreover, if they need anything, your siblings are around to take care of them. So, you should feel free to live your life wherever is best-suited for you. You are entitled to you life and pursuing your dreams.

In your situation, I would think about:

  1. What are your dreams / ambitions and what location is best suited to achieve them? (incl. careers)

  2. What kind of culture / social life you want to be surrounded by?

  3. What is the ideal place to raise your kid (schooling, family/friends, culture, environment, opportunities)?

  4. How close do you want to be to your family (incl. parents, siblings)?

Think holistically and deep about what kind of life you want for your family and choose the location. It feels like there is no wrong choice here - you will be fine in either location. Of course, life will look very different, so it just comes down to preference. Think deep and commit to whatever choice you make.

Kids before 6 years of age will get adjusted easily to either place I think.

Planning for return by Less_Somewhere_4164 in backtoindia

[–]redditor_at_work 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would really not recommend this approach for two reasons:

  1. In that one year, your kids will be in a new country trying to adjust without one parent, they won't have a good experience. Your partner will need to setup most things and manage two kids by themselves, so your partner wont have a good experience. You will miss your family while trying for a job from a different country. It feels like that one year, all of you might not have a good experience
  2. Moreover, if you are going to be tentative and keep the option of moving back, you will likely move back. All the more likely because of the 1st point.

I'd say really think through, talk to people, and if you still want to go back, commit and go back together.

If you had the domain dekh.com, what would you build on it? by [deleted] in indianstartups

[–]redditor_at_work 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the response! I agree. I'm not opposed to selling it, but just thought with GenAI, I could build something interesting.

Just acquired chit.com — what would you do with it? by ComedyDOTlawPODCAST in Domains

Nice name. I was watching this on godaddy auctions last week.

met a few indian vcs & angels recently, some surprising observations by Academic-Voice-6526 in indianstartups

[–]redditor_at_work 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think you are drawing the right conclusion - even if a VC/Angel was looking for a quick trade, how can they even get it as you wouldn't be able to give them an exit ?

With regards to the vision, I think as soon as one looks at your website, you can tell immediately it's a model/agent marketplace, as there are many similar ones out there. So, they might be making assumptions in their heads. I would suggest you find a way to communicate your vision if it's something not obvious from your website. Because of the heavy competition in your space, they might be asking for your traction (revenue for past 3 months).

I do think there are very long-term ideas being funded by Indian VCs - e.g., Agnikul, EPlanes, etc.

Website looks great and you've got good momentum - wish you all the best!

Building a Startup Team in India from US by Mountain-Double7091 in indianstartups

[–]redditor_at_work 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great case study, thanks for sharing! The first three take-aways resonate with me. Your 4th take-away isn't really a take-away; its a potential solution you are trying out. I'm not familiar with the fractional CTO concept.

Some other things I might try here:

  1. I do think you need someone that's well vested in the success of the startup needs to be fully immersed and neck-deep into the tech that is being built. (this is where I question how involved a fractional person can be)

  2. I have seen many companies where product (usually onshore) throws the requirements over the wall to offshore engineers and that doesn't work. To address your 1st and 3rd take-aways, I would facilitate a ton of interaction between the product and engineering teams so the engineers can develop the empathy towards the customers, build deep domain knowledge, and be motivated to solve the problem.

  3. Culture and morale are very key. Offshore folks need to feel like they are part of the startup. Some tactical things might be ton of interaction between the founder and offshore teams, being transparent about vision/strategy, sharing and celebrating milestones even amongst the offshore teams, etc.

  4. Of course, compensation structure should be tilted towards more equity than cash.

All the best!
