An operator who thrives between idea and scalable reality

With over 7 years of experience across global tech giants (Microsoft), hyper-growth startups (BYJU'S), and building my own ventures (GetVidya, Mangalam Hotel), I specialise in turning complex operational challenges into streamlined, profitable systems.

Founder's Grit

Scaled products from zero to thousands of users on shoestring budgets and navigated the complexities of M&A — successfully integrating a competitive exam platform under Prepdot Solutions.

Operational Systems

Whether it's managing a physical hospitality business or a digital EdTech platform, I build the SOPs that allow teams to scale without breaking.

Strategic Growth

From high-value technical sales at Microsoft to pioneering affordable exam prep for Tier 2/3 India — I know how to find product-market fit and drive revenue.

Tech-Forward Execution

I leverage AI-first infrastructure to build lean platforms that reduce burn and increase speed to market — making high-quality education accessible at ₹149/month.

Currently mentoring early-stage founders at AIC-MUJ, Manipal University Jaipur, while building GetVidya into India's definitive government exam prep platform.

A track record built in the field

Every role — from OYO intern to Microsoft technical sales to GetVidya CEO — built a specific muscle. Here's how they stack.

OYO
Intern
Mar–May 2018
Jaipur, Rajasthan

First exposure to hospitality tech at scale — how OYO was using standardisation and data to disrupt an unorganised industry. The playbook that later shaped Mangalam Hotel's transformation.

Microsoft
Technical Sales
Jun 2019 – Jul 2020
Delhi, India

Sold enterprise cloud solutions at Microsoft — working with decision-makers on complex, high-value technical deals. Learned how world-class technology is packaged and sold. Also noticed how little of it was built for India's non-metro majority.

BYJU'S
Business Development Manager
Apr – Sep 2021
Jaipur

Worked inside India's then-largest EdTech. Saw the gap from the inside: a ₹80,000 course optimised for metro parents with tablets and stable WiFi — fundamentally inaccessible to a student from Sikar, Jhunjhunu, or Churu.

Biddano
Marketing
Sep 2021 – Sep 2022
Maharashtra, India

Built and executed marketing systems for a consumer startup. Developed the precision-marketing muscle — KPIs, funnel optimisation, and performance tracking — that now runs GetVidya's district growth engine.

zazzy
Head of Growth & Portfolio Expansion
Sep 2022 – Sep 2024
Pune, Maharashtra

Led business development, strategic planning, and client relationship management across zazzy's portfolio. Ran full-cycle growth operations: market research, competitive analysis, GTM strategy, and cross-functional execution. Built the operator instinct that GetVidya runs on.

GetVidya
CEO & Co-Founder
Sep 2024 – Present
Pune, Maharashtra

Built the entire platform from zero — mobile app, AI question pipeline, adaptive difficulty engine, and web platform. Serving students across Rajasthan and beyond. Building GetVidyaAI: India's first AI model trained exclusively for government exam preparation.

Mangalam Hotel & Restaurant
Managing Director
Aug 2025 – Present
Lachhmangarh, Sikar, Rajasthan

Led full digital and operational transformation: AI-driven inventory management, real-time business intelligence, custom delivery app, POS-AI integration, and hyper-local SEO targeting NH52 and Mody University traffic. Premium pure-vegetarian fine-dining — run like a tech company.

Manipal University Jaipur
Startup Mentor · AIC-MUJ
Sep 2025 – Present
Jaipur, Rajasthan

Mentors early-stage founders and student innovators at AIC-MUJ. Sessions cover product-market fit, lean startup methodology, startup law essentials, and investor storytelling. Also collaborates on demo days, pitch reviews, and startup competitions.

How GetVidya is actually built

No agency. Lean infrastructure. AI-first execution. Every capability chosen to reduce burn and increase speed to market — the operator's approach to product building.

Adaptive AI Core

GetVidyaAI Question Engine

Generates 300–400 fresh, curriculum-validated MCQs every day. Adapts difficulty in real time based on each student's accuracy history across every session.

AI Reasoning

GetVidyaAI Doubt Solver

Explains why each answer is correct, surfaces the exact concept being tested, and links it to the syllabus — so students learn, not just score.

Student Profiling

Adaptive Difficulty Engine

5-level difficulty scale recomputed after every test. Question delivery shifts from beginner-heavy to advanced as the student's performance improves.

Built for Bharat

Mobile App

Works on ₹6,000 Android devices. Under 15MB download. Offline-capable question caching for students with spotty 4G connectivity in Tier-2 and Tier-3 districts.

Personalised Learning

AI Study Plans

Weekly study plans generated from diagnostic results. Identifies weak subjects and recommends daily focus areas with time targets — no manual setup needed.

Content Validation

GetVidyaAI Quality Gate

Every AI-generated question is validated for curriculum alignment, answer accuracy, and distractor quality before it reaches any student.

Platform Health

Data Intelligence

Real-time monitoring of student engagement, content quality, and platform performance. Enables fast product iterations based on actual usage patterns.

Growth Infrastructure

Referral Engine

Smart conversion triggers — Victory (≥75% score), Near Miss, Streak Protector — that turn high-performance moments into organic referral events.

GetVidyaAI: India's first
exam-focused AI model

Every general-purpose AI model available today was not trained on the RPSC RAS syllabus. They don't understand the distractor patterns that trip up Rajasthani students in Quantitative Aptitude. They hallucinate exam dates and misquote government notification details.

GetVidyaAI is being trained exclusively on 10+ years of SSC, Railway, UPSC, and RPSC Previous Year Questions — plus 5,000+ validated questions from GetVidya's own growing database. Designed to generate questions, solve doubts, and explain concepts natively in the context of India's 2 crore government exam aspirants.

Three phases. One direction.

The same playbook used at Mangalam Hotel — start with one hyper-local problem, solve it completely, then scale the model across verticals.

Voices from the field

From Rajasthan's Tier-2 districts — the exact students GetVidya was built for.

GetVidyaAI identified my weak areas in Reasoning in the first week. I cleared SSC CGL Tier-1 after 3 months of prep on GetVidya.

Priya Sharma
Sikar, Rajasthan
SSC CGL 2025

At ₹149/month, this gives me more than a ₹30,000 coaching centre. The AI study plan is genuinely different from anything else I've tried.

Rahul Verma
Jhunjhunu, Rajasthan
Railway NTPC

I was doing 2 hours of random practice every day. GetVidya's diagnostic test showed me I was wasting time on my strong subjects. Game changer.
