The Most Underrated Startup Model in India? Let's Talk About "Didi Ki Rasoi." 👩‍🍳🇮🇳 When we think of successful business models, we often talk about SaaS, D2C, or marketplaces. But I believe one of the most powerful and scalable models operating in India today is Bihar's "Didi Ki Rasoi." It's more than just a canteen; it's a genius business framework. Here’s why every founder should study it: 🎯 Perfect Product-Market Fit: They serve a captive audience (patients, staff, visitors in government hospitals and offices) with a product that has a clear, unmet need: hygienic, affordable, home-style food. 🌱 Empowerment as an Engine for Growth: This model turns rural homemakers from Self-Help Groups (SHGs) into entrepreneurs. They handle everything from procurement to cooking to management. This isn't charity; it's building local business leaders. 🔄 Hyperlocal Supply Chain: By often sourcing ingredients locally, the money circulates within and strengthens the rural economy. It's a self-reinforcing loop of community prosperity. 🚀 Scalable & Sustainable Model: It’s a brilliant B2G (Business-to-Government) play that's replicable across districts and states. It has a clear customer base and solves a real problem for government institutions. The "Didi Ki Rasoi" initiative is a masterclass in grassroots entrepreneurship. It proves you can build a massive, impactful, and sustainable enterprise by focusing on fundamental needs, empowering the community, and creating a robust operational model. Some of the best business lessons don't come from Silicon Valley, but from the heart of Bharat. What can the urban tech startup world learn from the success of models like Didi Ki Rasoi? Would love to hear your thoughts.

The underlying model of notebookLM has been upgraded to gemini 2.5 flash, but it is not 2.5 pro after all. The advantage is that the 2.5 series are reasoning models (thinking models), and the disadvantage is that flash is a distillation model.
