## Work experience

Founder & AI product lead at Creatorbase, Apr 2025 \- Present · 1 yr 8 mos, Network School, Singapore\-Johor economic zone, Built Creatorbase, an agentic marketing platform for running creator campaigns end to end autonomously, from brief to payout\. Creatorbase turns 20\+ hours of campaign management into a 5\-minute setup, giving brands a way to run campaigns across hundreds of creators without building an operations team around every launch\. I built an agent\-assisted operating system around that workflow: • creator discovery agent — matches creators to campaign requirements • content analysis agent — reviews submissions against the brand brief • performance tracking agent — verifies engagement across platforms • payment processing agent — calculates earnings and settles rewards onchain The product supports original UGC campaigns\. We are also building Chop, where creators remix a brand’s existing assets into short\-form content\. I started with a hackathon prototype and turned it into a live product used for campaigns across countries, with 400\+ creators and Base\(one of the largest blockchains in the world\) as an early paying customer\. I work across the product end to end: turning brand briefs into campaign plans, matching creators, reviewing content, tracking performance and handling global payouts\. Creatorbase won the AI track in a global accelerator for onchain and AI products with 5000\+ projects built and finished joint third at the final demo day\. https://creatorbase\.pro/

Indie builder and product management consultant at Independent, Feb 2025 \- Present · 1 yr 10 mos, Network School, I split my time between my own products, hackathons and a small number of confidential consulting engagements\. I have been a power user of replit, openai and anthropic since 2023\. As the tools evolved, I added Codex and Claude Code to my workflow and used them to move from product decisions to working software faster\. Most builds stayed experiments\. Some reached users\. Fewer made revenue\. I kept the ones that showed pull and treated the rest as practical R&D\. Selected work: • Creatorbase became the most substantial venture from this period and is listed separately\. • Paper IRL — turns X bookmarks and linked articles into a printable personal edition\. • Homelore — a voice\-first family\-memory product that keeps exact words, interpretations and unknowns separate\. • AI Manager / Maya — audits product strategy by challenging the reasoning, not just improving the writing\. • Vahara Feed — a finite, transparent alternative to an endless social feed, with an explicit fallback when AI ranking is unavailable\. • FarReal — a daily Farcaster moment built around cameras, prompts, notifications and feeds\. Alongside the building, I worked with founders and early teams on product strategy, 0→1 definition, prioritisation, GTM and AI prototyping\. I keep client names private\. In August 2025, I moved to Network School — a startup society — because I wanted to spend more time around people building things\. https://onchain\-ai\-blr\.devfolio\.co/@GaganGehani/projects

Career transition at Career Break, Sep 2024 \- Jan 2025 · 5 mos, I had been wanting to get back to building hands\-on, and the arrival of AI seemed like the right push\. I took a career break to go into indie hacking and implement the latest AI tech\. I was early to predict AI use cases at scale, both in my role building a browser and in side projects\. Example: I predicted the “@grok, is this true?” behavior in 2023, way before its mainstream usage today\. I built an AI chatbot: https://x\.com/datadiveai I built a bunch of indie products\. Most didn’t go anywhere\. Some got users; an even smaller number made revenue\. I won multiple hackathons during this period\.

Director of Product Management at Veera, Jan 2023 \- Aug 2024 · 1 yr 8 mos, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Founding team member of this leading web3 investors funded venture\. Helping build a secure, crypto browser by leading AI, ad blocking, customer support, monetisation and crypto charters\. My work primarily focused on leading 0 to 1 product functions including native AI flows, monetisation, growth\(user acquisition and retention \), personalisation\( decentralised identities\), dAPP store\.

Advisor/Mentor to HUMANS at HUMANS, Nov 2022 \- Jan 2026 · 3 yrs 3 mos, I advise Web3 founders on product strategy, roadmaps, and hiring issues\. In addition, I provide overall consulting on the Web3 world\. Feel free to book a 1:1 session with me on HUMANS: https://humans\.work/advisors/gagan\-gehani
