Hey I am on Medial • 2m

Founder's confession: Its not easy I don’t usually share things like this, but today… I just feel the need to speak from the heart. Building a startup has been the wildest ride of my life. It’s not just about solving a problem — it’s about carrying the weight of dreams, responsibilities, people’s trust, and your own expectations… all at once. There’s no roadmap when you're in the middle of a storm. You just keep going. Your family, relatives, friends question you if this is the right move. You can see worry in their eyes. They feel that you are struggling. But, you still smile, you fight in silence. You promise yourself — “I’ll make it work” — even when things are falling apart behind the scenes. Lately, life has been tough. Not for lack of effort. Not because I gave up. But because sometimes, despite giving everything, the results don’t show up when you need them most. I’ve had to make hard calls. Delay commitments. Miss deadlines I wanted to keep more than anything. Not because I didn’t care — but because I simply couldn’t make things move fast enough. And yet, every single day, I show up. For my dream. For the people who still believe in me and standing with me. This post isn’t a pitch. It’s not a cry for help. It’s just me — being real. If you’ve ever built something from scratch, if you’ve ever kept going when it felt impossible — I think you’ll understand what I’m feeling. And if you’re reading this — thank you. Maybe all I needed today was to feel heard. I am still building. Still believing. And I truly think the best part of this story is still ahead. Finally, the product is out but still need a lot of learning.

Not every startup starts with a pitch. Some start with pain. We’re building something in silence. Not because we don’t have the vision— But because it’s not time yet. This isn’t your typical “AI tool.” It’s not a productivity hack. It’s not anothe

Great UI/UX isn’t just seen… it’s felt. It’s not just about looks. It’s about how it makes you feel when you use it. What was the last app you used that made you say, “Wow, this is smooth!”?

💀 Still waiting… and waiting… and waiting… That Java update really said: “I’ll finish when I feel like it.” ☕🐢 By the time it’s done, we’ll all be skeletons. Tag someone who’s still stuck on "Installing..." 😂
