This is about leveling the playing field for startups who don't have prior tech knowledge,” he added. Highlighting the platform’s robust capabilities, Manish Singh Bisht, co-founder and CTO of Fenado AI, said, “AI has proven to be more efficient than 99% of humans in the field of coding. And with this advancement, we at Fenado AI want people to build world-class apps and websites with the help of AI. It ensures the tools are scalable and reliable, with continuous support—crucial for startups navigating their growth journeys. Fenado AI saves time, offers end-to-end tech support and removes the challenges of finding tech talent.” Azhar Iqubal’s entrepreneurial journey has been nothing short of remarkable. Inshorts, which he co-founded in 2013, has become one of India’s most popular news apps, attracting investments worth USD 170 million over the last decade.
