Stories, insights & build notes

There was no grand vision. No market research report. No TAM calculation. It started with a conversation with my fiancée.

You started with five students. WhatsApp worked fine. Then you hit twenty. And somewhere around twenty, the system started breaking.

March 8th. First commit. Initialize project using Create React App. That is the whole entry. No fanfare. No announcement.

You became a fitness coach to train people. Not to do paperwork. But somewhere between your first client and your twentieth, the paperwork found you anyway.

I want to tell you something about Prabzo that most app founders would not say out loud. I cannot see your clients.

If you are a tutor in India managing more than fifteen students, you already know the problem. The tools available to you were built for someone else.

May 7th. App live on the Play Store. I had no marketing budget. No growth team. No influencer relationships. Just an app I had built alone.

The spreadsheet is not the problem. The spreadsheet is a genuinely useful tool. Managing your clients is not the right job for it.

There is a particular kind of exhaustion that has nothing to do with the work itself. A dance instructor who has taught six classes today is not tired from teaching.

March 8th to May 3rd. Sixty days. One person. Zero co-founders. Zero funding. Zero prior experience shipping a mobile app to the Play Store.

Artificial intelligence is in everything now. So when Prabzo says it has an AI assistant built in, the reasonable response is scepticism.
