Chapter 01
On Building Companies in India
I've been building companies in India for 15 years. Started one that failed, worked at SAP, then spent a decade scaling a B2B platform to 600+ enterprise clients, bootstrapped. These are notes on how building actually works... not the Silicon Valley version, but the version where you're selling to Indian enterprises and figuring things out in a market that has its own rules.

Ten Years of Building Mental Health Tech in India
Since 2015, I co-founded and helped build Silver Oak Health into India's largest B2B mental health platform. 600+ enterprise clients. 4.5 million employees. 14+ languages. This collection is about what it's actually like to build technology for mental health in India... the clinical complexity, the cultural landmines, the privacy paradoxes, and the moments that remind you why any of it matters.
