Hi all,

I'm looking to connect with someone interested in co-founding an AI startup from scratch. A bit about me: I was previously a co-founder at a deep-tech manufacturing startup in India, in the aerospace/defense space, so I've been through the 0→1 grind before — fundraising, building a founding team, navigating regulatory and enterprise sales cycles, the whole thing.

I'm currently exploring two problem spaces and looking for a partner to build with:

1. Factory Automation OS — a software layer to unify and orchestrate shop-floor operations (machine data, scheduling, quality, maintenance) for manufacturing plants.
2. Industrial Procurement (currently in progress) — I'm actively working on this one: rethinking how industrial buyers source components and raw materials.

I'm looking for someone who:

• Has a strong technical background (AI/ML, full-stack, or industrial systems) or complementary GTM/domain expertise in manufacturing or procurement.
• Is excited about building an AI-native product from the ground up.

I'm based in Hyderabad, India but open to remote collaboration to begin with until we get traction.

We have been making lot of noise online since 2024, but our social media following especially on Instagram has only 5.9M, compared to 20M each for RCB and CSK, that’s way low. As a noob in social media, can anyone help me understand this.

P.S. : Don’t want other team fans coming here for trolling.

We have batted responsibly and stuck to stroke making. Though I think openers should play the same way they are known for. They seemed out of place.

Openers slog and get out, ok we move on. But why were every other batsman slogging as if we were chasing 250!! What was the plan. Very strange intent. Even Pat threw his wicket.
