Hey 👋🏼

I’m Aishwarya, a product builder obsessed with turning ideas into working tools, especially with AI in the mix. Over 10+ years across SaaS, I’ve shipped zero-to-one products, scaled product marketing motions, and worked across spaces ranging from MarTech automation to real-time collaboration canvases and live event tech.

I started out in marketing tech, where I told product stories and built GTM playbooks. Then I crossed over to product, building a collaborative editor with drag-and-drop widgets, embedded video/audio, and a real-time canvas. Later, I led dev-facing SDK work for hardware-software tools powering event interactions.

🛠️ Currently

I build AI-first products working closely with models, agents, and orchestration tools. The Forward Deployed AI PM-turned-Engineer at the moment.

I also coach Stanford Seed Spark entrepreneurs as an in-house mentor, with everything around go-to-market and early-stage product marketing and building.

🎙️ Beyond work

• I host The Founder’s Foyer, a podcast and builder collective where we deconstruct how raw ideas become real-world products
• I tinker with AI + video workflows, expanding the boundaries of GenAI filmmaking and storytelling
• And when I’m not building, you’ll find me sketching old cities or hosting heritage art walks

🥳 What excites me

I reside in the intersection of building, growing, and transforming products. As much a humanist as techno-futurist. I have a deep-rooted belief in growth mindset, empathy, and responsible tech— the three things needed for creating value-first products.

Super pumped about discussing all things product, startups, markets, and venture capital—ping me if you’re into SaaS and would love to chat anything about it.
