Back in Bangalore for the foreseeable future.
Feels like every street has a brewery now. Massive ones, with good aesthetics.
If anyone’s around, hit me up 🍻
I haven't posted properly here in about a year. Let's see if I still got it:
Early this year, I stepped away from a lot of projects I was involved with and reevaluated my priorities. I took on a lot of agency work and explored many different worlds - ecommerce, manufacturing, IT, real estate - and built a lot of custom AI solutions for these industries.
But I missed the action. I've done almost no marketing or gtm or branding in the last year. And I haven't built anything that I can call my own.
So I decided to get back in the game.
While I was working with my clients, at some point, it got too much. I took too much on my plate. I couldn't tell what deserved my attention each day.
AI made it easier to do more, but harder to decide what was worth doing.
So I built a simple tracker for myself: a way to connect my goals to the work in front of me, and see whether I was moving toward anything that mattered.
For months, I used this tracker locally. I didn't plan to launch it.
But now that my product founder senses are tingling, I decided to share it.
It's called Nox - the productivity system behind your greatest ambitions.
Because AI made it easier to do anything, but harder to decide what was worth doing.
It's still in beta, but I invite anyone who has an ADHD brain like me to try it out.
Anyone who gets easily distracted and finds it difficult to sit down and focus on one thing at a time.
Anyone whose brain has been fried by social media and cheap dopamine.
Anyone who has great ambitions but keeps getting deviated from their mission.
More to come. But for now, check out Nox:
usenox.app
AI makes it possible to start almost anything. But it makes choosing what to focus on harder than ever.
Introducing Nox: the productivity system behind your greatest ambitions.
In beta. Try it out: usenox.app
