• Currently has 300,000 total signups with 15,000-20,000 monthly active users
• Operates 10 automated social media channels to showcase capabilities and attract new users
• Sahil left a 12-year investment banking career to pursue his passion for AI and technology
• Returned to university for a master's in data science to gain hands-on technical knowledge
• Believes in "making your own luck" through persistent hard work
• Recently had his entire remote team live and work together for a month to accelerate progress
