• I tried to solve the customer uncertainty problem in deciding on clothes in offline tailor-made fabric stores, as clothes aren't ready and it's tough to visualize. The idea was to propose an app/tablet-based technology where customers can see themselves in every fabric without it being tailored, resulting in a more informed decision and saving time. However, I ended up closing this startup idea because it failed at the market research level, with a very less TAM of INR 300 Crore per year. Additionally, the technology wasn't feasible during peak traffic months, as customers need to be served within 10 minutes, and owners don't have time to upload photos of every fabric into the software. • Then, I pivoted to provide a personalized experience for trying out different hairstyles with just one photo for premium and luxury salons, The idea was to propose an app/tablet-based technology where customers can see how a new hairstyle would look on them before getting a haircut. However, I stopped working on this idea after discovering that customers usually come up with their own ideas, and the TAM wasn't big enough. • Then, I pivoted to FashionX which is right now I'm building.

About

• I'm a product-driven generalist who loves turning chaos into clarity. • I just wrapped up my B.Tech in Chemical Engineering from NIT Surat but most of what I’ve built came from chasing problems outside the classroom. • I led FashionX to tackle D2C fashion returns with AI try-ons, drove retail expansion strategy at Livspace, and ran small biz research at IIM Kozhikode. • I move fast, think deep, and care about what gets shipped. Let’s build.
