ButterCut AI
Sep 20251 yrAug 2026

Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

Built ButterCut from scratch and wore almost every hat along the way : product, GTM, sales, hiring, and plenty of problem-solving outside my comfort zone. What I enjoyed most was the messiness: getting close to users, building fast, and changing direction when reality challenged the original idea. Built multi-step agentic workflows across content production and post-production, along with Indic-language evaluation layers to make AI outputs reliable enough for production use. Scaled ButterCut to 30,000+ users with 700+ paid customers, closed annual enterprise contracts, and received a written VC investment offer worth ₹2.5Cr+.
