Why I'm doing this

It took me seven years to build Hoovu's internal dashboard. With a day of focused attention, I think I can help a senior person inside another company build the equivalent — and they'll be better positioned to extend and customize it than any external vendor.

About me

I studied at Stanford and taught in the CS department there for two years. Since 2019 I've been running Hoovu Fresh, a B2B flower supply chain across nine Indian cities, 365 days a year, in a perishable, low-margin industry. We've scaled it profitably with a corporate team of fifteen.

I use AI constantly as a founder. Since March I've been running free “hang with AI” sessions and have worked with about 40 people; there's a WhatsApp group of around 150 building things together. This feels like a great way to extend that same experiment.

Two formats

Two ways to work together — depending on how deep you want to go, and how much of it tailored to your company.

• The three-hour intro — ₹1 lakh. A general session, not customised: I walk your team through how I use AI day to day, with worked examples from Hoovu, live demos on my systems, and time for real questions. Good for teams that want a shared foundation and a sense of what's possible before deciding what to build.
• The full custom day — six hours, ₹3 lakhs. Built around your company and what you actually need. Includes a discovery call and my prep before we start, so I already understand the shape of your business the moment I walk in. We spend the day building tools that live on your system. You leave with something working.

How a day works

Six hours on site — five of work, one for lunch.

• A two-to-three hour session where I explain how I use AI day to day, with examples from Hoovu. Happy to walk anyone through the Hoovu dashboard — brief intro here.
• Roughly two hours of guided building, with a one-hour break in the middle so multiple departments can work in parallel.
• At minimum, a 1:1 with one senior person.
• The lunch break is also when AI can train on your data or run a longer build, so we're not burning paid time on it.
• Best done in your office so we can pull people in for feedback and connect to internal systems.

This describes the full custom day. The discovery call and my prep happen before I arrive — that's folded into the ₹3 lakh price, so the day itself is entirely for building. If we scope something on the day that genuinely needs another day of building, we can add one at the same rate, paid same-day. Either way, the goal is to walk away with something working that you can keep building on yourself.

I'm committing fully to the time we book and I'll be ready to start on the dot. In return, the start and end times are fixed in advance. If the day starts late on your end, the end time doesn't shift, and I'm not able to stay longer to make up for it. Waiting around is a poor use of both our time, and I'd rather we honor the window we agreed on so the work stays focused.

What I need from you

• One senior management person with me throughout. This is non-negotiable. Without their insight the dashboard isn't valuable, and that part can't be outsourced.
• We build on your machine, so you own it end to end from minute one.
• The more frankly that person can speak about how the company actually works — existing systems, pain points, what's broken — the better the output.

Pricing

• ₹3 lakhs for the full custom day — six hours on site, with a discovery call and my prep folded in so the day itself is entirely building.
• ₹1 lakh for the three-hour intro — a general session, not customised: I walk your team through how I use AI day to day, with examples from Hoovu.
• Payment is same-day. Both of us have better things to do than chase an invoice.
• If we add another full day of building on the back of the first, it's the same ₹3 lakhs, paid same-day — you decide after the first.
• Outside Bangalore, I also bill travel and accommodation at cost. I'll always try to group trips or stay with friends to keep it small, but every so often that isn't possible.
• The rate isn't negotiable. The structure isn't either.

The structure only works if both sides honor it.

Logistics

• Conference room, a monitor I can share my screen to, a whiteboard, internet.
• Happy to sign an NDA — yours, a standard one, or one Claude drafts for us.
• If you can share context beforehand — documents, ERP access, sample data — great. I prep for a session either way and it makes the day more specific. If it's thousands of documents, AI can read through them.
• Don't share anything you wouldn't share with a consultant. You can show things on your screen so sensitive docs never leave your system — that's the point of building on your laptop.
• If you'd rather, we can discover pain points during the session through voice notes from older management, in-person interviews, JDs, orientation docs, existing emails and Excel sheets — but that uses up time. With good prep we can have a working prototype in the first hour.

Afterward

The tools live on your system. You can extend them, customize them, pay for the APIs directly without me as a middleman. During the session I'll show you how Claude itself can help you debug and extend what we built, so you genuinely don't need me to keep going.

If we do more than one day together, you can message me anytime after and I'll do my best to help.

Demos I build on the day

I'll usually try to build a small working demo during the session itself — it's the fastest way to get a room to see what's possible and win the team's buy-in. When I do, I'll hand you the Claude Code prompt behind it so you can rebuild it yourself.

The demo project itself, though, I'll either take down within a week or scope separately. When I build something on the fly to make a point, I do it on my own API keys and my own database — turning that into something production-ready that your team can actually rely on is a whole separate project, with real time and effort behind it. I'm glad to do it if you decide you want it: just say the word and I'll scope it and send you pricing. Otherwise, the prompt should get you most of the way there yourself.

A quick heads-up before you do: the full custom day is ₹3 lakhs (six hours on site, with a discovery call and prep included), and the three-hour intro is ₹1 lakh (general, not customised). Payment is same-day, and outside Bangalore travel and accommodation are billed at cost.
