When your work speaks !!
Grateful to Banglore Insider media article for featuring us

What made you start your startup and what problem does it solve?

It’s been always on our checklist early in the academics life, To develop such versatile product which can be easily used by the community and make our regular life yet easier.

Another reason is, exploring the latest techs and overcoming the challenges keep us attracted towards it. We just want to be limitless, there should not be the single thing that we would not be aware of. Because of this hunger and passion, we are also contributing on multiple well known and latest frameworks and libraries. The ultimate goal is to ensure to give the most feasible and flawless product to the user.

You can say hustle is our new hobby for the product-oriented mindset.

Tell us about yourself, your previous jobs/ventures? What were you doing before this startup?

Okay so we both were having so-called secure jobs which used to pay us satisfied amount We could have chosen chill times on weekends, hanging out with friends, But it never attracted us to do so but rather we used to solve the problems that we face during free time and which helped us a lot to build solution driven mindset. I must say those habits are much use now as in we can think from client’s perspective what they actually want, We analyze those requirements and make sure to exceed their expectations

Where is your startup based out of? Why do you think that is the best place for you?

Well, this is really great question, As Surat is the fastest growing city in India in multiple industries including IT as well. Hence as early bird catches the worm, we are already gaining leverage here and this decision really made us to dream of creating Surat, One of the biggest IT hub in India. Others can take advantages,too

As a startup founder, what are you paranoid about? What keeps you awake at night?

Well, entrepreneurship is such a wonderful challenge which every day falls you into the unique and unexpected situation for which you might not be prepared. For that you need to be versatile and being in a rapidly raising startup, we are managing company’s Marketing, Branding, Selling and even HR formalities. Oh yeah, and project involvement and client meetings are default work

So yes planning for all these multiple roles keep us awake always.

Who are your competitions and how are you better than them?

We totally believe in innovation and creativity, we believe in uplifting community, So if there is a competitor, We would rather collaborate. So if they are doing something unique, we would adopt from them and if there is something better for them, We would also suggest them.

How hard is it to have a work-life balance as a startup founder and how do you manage it?

Well, Planning is equally important before taking action, So we make sure to plan our day in a way where we can manage everything properly.

Have you raised funding? If yes, then we would like to know the details. If no then please tell us if you are looking to raise.

Well, We started this business with zero penny in hand, but because of our capabilities we are financially stable for now, but yes we may seek to fund for our bigger future plans to develop the products with future techs that people might have dreamt about, We want to make it happen in real life.

What’s the biggest misconception people have about you? Why do they have that? What’s the reality?

Misconception as in We might be IT company who works on so and so fixed techs.

As JSbot’s tagline says ‘On Mission to deliver product’ Our mindset is totally different. We think on research level, product creation level, So we ourself cannot allow pixel failure, So we give our best efforts to derive optimized outcome. We never skip to add an essence of innovation while developing a product based on thriving techs, So every employee gets an opportunity to learn new things. Hence, every small and big firms are seeing us tech partners.

What gets you excited about this company?

I think knowledge is a deepest ocean, The more you dive, the more gain, So this fact excites us. Currently, We created MVP in one of our projects based on Artificial Intelligence called ‘AI for Meeting’ and our client raised $100k from it. We are already working on AI and ML. And Neural Network, Blockchain, Cryptocurrency these are already in research funnel to use it into upcoming product and project as well. So we are learning every day which keeps us going.

Tell us how a day in your life looks like? Your schedule for a day right from the time you get up till you hit the bed at night.

Normally It starts at 8 IST in the morning, We got clients meeting and give them an update about the progress in the work, Also we got team meetings in which we plan strategies to derive the solution. Break hours are interesting where we all sit together and have a debate on any topic whether it is technical or non-technical. For a team, it ends at 5 but for ours, there is never fix the time for our both.

Tell us about your team and how did you meet each other?

One word, They are awesome, They are equally enthusiastic as us for new learnings and its implementation. Everyone understands their responsibilities so well and our culture is been been always driven. So we always work as team and not as typical boss and employee.

Grateful to team JSbot!!
