How a college idea became the beginning of an entrepreneurial journey.

Nobody starts a company in a classroom. But a lot of companies start as classroom problems — assignments, projects, the irritating gap between what exists and what should exist.

This is the story of one such journey (demo): a semester project that refused to end with a grade, the first hundred users from the hostel next door, and the slow realisation that building something is a full-time education in itself.

There were co-founder arguments, a pivot nobody wanted to admit was needed, and the first rupee of revenue that felt bigger than any placement offer.

The startup is still early. The journey is already worth telling. [Demo story.]

The classroom gave us the idea. The campus gave us our first users.
