Day 6 at Basecamp was undoubtedly the most diverse!

➡️ A room of researchers spent the evening making the case for small, efficient AI models, with voices ranging from an ex-OpenAI researcher to professors from IIT Gandhinagar and Microsoft Research.

Basecamp started with a bang on Day 1, and we're closing it with an even louder one on Day 7 with 20 events! We have some epic events by @OpenAI, @GrowthX_Club, @bolna_dev, @Razorpay, @cursor_ai, @wearegoodera, @TrilegalLaw, @spacekayak and more!

Day 5 at Basecamp turned a Monday into one of its most packed days yet! 

We hosted a fireside chat with @ighose, featuring thoughtful conversations on what it actually takes to build with AI.

I'll be heading here after Cafe Cursor tomorrow. 

This is one of the coolest events at

Introducing Sarvam BuildIn’ Hours, a 12-hour, in-person hackathon during Basecamp Week in Bengaluru.

100 developers, founders, researchers, and AI builders will come together to build with the Sarvam stack.

Why I'm applying to Sarvam BuildIn' Hours 

Over the last few months, we've been building Pyros, an AI-native robotics engineering agent.

The goal isn't to build another coding assistant. It's to build the execution layer for robotics engineering.

Pyros understands complete

Even though it was a busy and tiring day, their ambition kept our conversations going. They truly understood the problem they were solving

What began as an idea for 20 people received nearly 650 unique registrations and grew into two editions of The Arc of Storytelling at @basecampblr by @ElevCap.

Recently shifted to Bangalore, and capturing Push to Prod during @basecampblr, it was the perfect start. Grateful to @AnthropicAI, @mesaschool_, @ElevCap
and @devfolio team for the opportunity. Amazing vibes all around.

Startup Policy Forum recently hosted “ESOPs Baatcheet” with Sandeep Jethwani, co-founder of Dezerv and author of The Millionaire Employee, to discuss all things ESOPs, as part of Elevation’s Basecamp series of events, the weeklong tech festival in Bengaluru.  

A room full of startup employees, and a conversation that went deep: cliff vesting, exercise mechanics, post-termination exercise windows (PTEW), and the taxation questions that trip almost everyone up. 

Sandeep answered every question patiently and with sharp, real-world examples. 

The questions from the audience were a highlight in themselves, several of them reframed how the whole room was thinking about equity as a wealth-building tool.

For us at Startup Policy Forum, this one runs deep. ESOP taxation is an issue we’ve championed for a long time, and with the sheer amount of wealth being created through employee stock options today,  and the far greater amount still to come,  this will stay a topic close to our heart.

Huge thanks to Sandeep and the entire Dezerv team for hosting us at their Bangalore office.

Everyone was busy seriously building, meeting, and just vibing along

We need more such spaces !

@cursor_ai @basecampblr @sanjeed_i

6,272 people wanted in. 100 got a seat. Everyone else missed the room.

@SarvamAI ran a 12-hour hackathon at @WTFxZo this Sunday, real builds, ₹5,00,000 on the line.

Judged by @arsh_goyal, @meenu_stardust (Sarvam AI), @svs (ex-CTO, https://t.co/Mo2xXFczoP & @invideoOfficial), and @varadmaniyar (@NexusVP). Built and run by @Hack_Culture, with @ElevCap's @basecampblr.

Full recap on Substack: 👇


AI voice agents just got more real.

Just saw what @ElevenLabs is building at the Feature Showcase by @TheProductfolks x @basecampblr.

ElevenAgents for real D2C workflows.
ElevenCreative for music, content & marketing.

The wild part? All the banger music at the event was AI-generated.

This is getting insane. 👀

space is never just space. every satellite carries a political choice about who gets data, when, and on what terms.

yesterday we sat down with @piersightspace and a room full of policy folks, investors, and defence-tech builders to pressure test a simple but loaded question: can India actually offer its Indian Ocean neighbours dependable, non-coercive space capability, or is that just a nicer story than the alternatives.

we went deep on maritime domain awareness as the test case. because the moment you're deciding whether to sell satellite data to a neighbouring country, you're deciding a lot more than a commercial contract. you're deciding what trust looks like when a kill switch is technically always possible. you're deciding how you finance a moat when no single customer can pay for the constellation you actually need. you're deciding whether being reliable is a policy position or just a nice thing to say until the moment it's inconvenient.

no easy answers by the end of four hours. but a much sharper sense of where the real constraints sit: capital, policy, and trust, in that order of difficulty.

the conversation were  steered by:
 @AchintyaaTewari, business development at @piersightspace 
 group captain H.N. Prasanna, director at the Defence Space Agency
 Dr. S Chandrasekhar, formerly at @isro, now at @NIAS_India 
 @girichaitanya19, fellow at @orfonline 
 air marshal TD Joseph, @IAF_MCC (retd.)
 @adityascripts, fellow at @TakshashilaInst

this is the bet we keep making at boundless. the frontier isn't just the technology. it's the systems, the incentives, and the trust architecture around it. that's where the real work is, and where we like to spend our time.

Thanks again @1littlecoder for letting me know about the event today, otherwise i would have missed this!

At Tune In: The Future of Voice AI : Razorpay x Cartesia x The Product Folks x Basecamp. A panel on building voice AI products, live in Bengaluru. This space is moving fast. 🎙️

@Razorpay @cartesia @TheProductfolks @basecampblr

Today, I attended Ship It by
@Replit X @TheProductfolks X @basecampblr 

The agenda was simple:

Build something. Find a problem you want to solve. Solve it for yourself. Vibe code it with Replit.

So I started with a problem I face almost every day:
Tracking calories + Figuring out the best alternative when life throws a rain check, work gets in the way, or something unexpected means I can’t have the meal I originally planned.

Ditched it. 

Then I thought about something I wished I had back in college:

A better way to learn code, data structures & algorithms.

Started building that.

10 minutes later…

Ditched it

And then I realised something.

I've been struggling with the same problem for as long as I can remember:

I know what I love. I just don't always know what problem I should solve.

So I built something around it.

Meet Scout.

Know what you love, but not what to build? 
Scout finds you a problem worth solving.
The idea is simple:

You tell Scout what you're passionate about.

Scout helps you uncover industry gaps, underserved problems, broken workflows and opportunities around that space.

For example:
If you're passionate about fitness, instead of telling you to “build another calorie tracker,” Scout might help you explore:
→ What are gyms still doing manually? → Where do coaches lose the most time? 
→ What do athletes struggle to track?
→ Which parts of the fitness journey are still fragmented?
→ What problems are underserved despite people actively spending money on them?

The goal isn't to give you an idea.

It's to help you find a problem you actually care enough to spend months solving.

Built this in ~2 hours.
Was it perfect?

Absolutely not.
But gave me a direction towards what I want to do and finish after I get my hands on it.
And honestly, that might be the most interesting signal of all.

If you want to see Scout or want the exact prompt I used to build it:
Comment “SCOUT” and I'll DM it to you.
