Bengaluruopen to 0→1 roles

hey, i'm rinkesh 👋

i'm a product builder and two-time founder. i make things from scratch, mostly with AI these days. my first company, Savior, was healthcare software that 85 hospitals ran on before Zocdoc bought it in 2020. after that i spent two years at Accel, backing pre-seed founders.

the part i like most is the very beginning, when the problem is still messy and you don't know yet if it'll work. right now i'm building again, in the open, and looking for my next 0→1.

building something 0→1? i'd genuinely like to hear about it.

Career Leap2020–23

a learning platform where tech professionals built soft skills, taught live by experienced mentors.

it started as a whatsapp group and grew to 10k users in six months. the app crossed 100k watch hours.
live cohorts had 40% completion when most online courses see 5 to 10%. i trained 60 people.
it looked healthy but never made money at scale, so i shut it down in 2023.

Accel India's pre-seed program for 0→1 founders. i ran it end to end.

picked the founders and built the program across 4 cohorts and 2 tracks (AI and LeapTech).
worked with each team through the hardest part of going zero to one, from rough idea to fundable.
two years on the investor side, after two as a founder.
