Finding Purpose through Building Software
Getting slightly personal here...
Hey everyone, hope you’re having a great day. This morning, I wanted to take a moment to share some personal reflections that have been on my mind lately. A lot of people have been asking why I decided to start ProperlyAI with Vedant. So, I thought I’d dive into it here.
Co-founding ProperlyAI has been incredibly personal for me, in ways I didn’t fully expect. It’s the first venture I’ve cofounded and has given me an unbelievable sense of purpose.
There’s something extraordinary about knowing that our software is helping real estate agents in their daily lives, enabling them to build better relationships with their clients. The idea that we can create such positive change through software still amazes me.
On a more personal note, I’ve realized that at 19, I’ve learned more in the last 9 months since meeting Vedant and pivoting to this idea as a side project, than I ever imagined while being in university.
From learning how startups scale with the power of talking to users to gaining insights on funding, and understanding how to effectively delegate to a team — it's been an eye-opening journey. I genuinely believe that if our team keeps pushing forward consistently on this startup, the sky's the limit.
Our journey has felt validated, especially after Vedant and I secured 2nd place at the Techstars pitch competition a few months ago and received positive feedback since launching our MVP. This recognition has only strengthened our determination to stay focused and push forward.
With our new product launch next month, I’m excited to see realtors gain real value from what we’ve created. It’s going to be an incredible moment, and I can’t wait to see where this journey takes us.
Thank you for reading!
