Our consumer brain agent finished a report on premium bags in India.
One bit stuck with me. People buy these bags for how they look and quit them over how they wear. Vegan leather peels at the fold points, usually in year one or two. Which is about when the 12-month warranty runs out.
Compare that to Osprey, who will honour a claim on a 15-year-old pack with no receipt. Or Peak Design, whose warranty transfers to whoever buys your bag secondhand, even without the original bill.
So the biggest opening for an Indian bag brand right now might be the warranty rather than the material.
Report in the reply. Every claim traces back to a real comment or thread.

I reset my stats 20 hours back as had restricted data usage. To my surprise, Meta AI used 2gb. This is when I did not open app or used my Meta glasses. Whats going on @metaai

If you're sending me your proposal drafted using Sonnet, remember I will use Fable to review.
Draft human with bullet points capturing my real pains from our call, I am already in.

The intelligence that wins will either cause most damage or most benefit.
But the "benefits" never go that viral. I just wish this doesn't become a PR playbook of AI companies.

Have you ever considered it may be possible that Instagram videos that gets viral, should be a well perfect no-brainer slop content.
Majority don't want to learn or get quality, but just want to scroll and AI slop content is perfect for that.

TALK TO CUSTOMERS.
Only thing that matters when building with AI has become so easy is having insights that others in your industry dont have.
And only way to know that is - talk to customers.

One of the greatest times in history to build businesses as everyone else is busy vibe coding/brainstorming on Claude.
Every product we see seems to have been done already as seen on social media.
But only few of them are selling on ground connecting with their problems

If you have product management experience (3+yrs ) esp have done study researches with US based customers - DM me with your LinkedIn.

Haters will say AI labs will solve it eventually. The moat is just never a product for great companies building and getting funded by serious investors now. Moat lies where these labs can not even touch.

We let an AI interview customers.
The AI interviewer was the easy part. The hard part: Hallucinations that invents customer quotes.
The right way:

Setup your company brain day 0 if you want to have AI native advantage of 2026. Orgs pre 2026 may not have day 0 brain advantage - but you have! See my videos if you need help - I have talked about that.

Launching @vorfluxai : The autopilot for software engineering. I was prev co-founder / CTO of @Rippling ($10B) and #1 coder in India. Vorflux is my high octane Ferrari.
Every AI coding tool still makes you fly the plane. That's the copilot model: you stay in the seat, approving every turn. The models quietly got good enough to fly the whole route, but the tools never caught up.
So we built the autopilot.
@vorfluxai raised a $15M seed by @ycombinator @peakxvpartners @alliancedao @parkerconrad @jake_zeller @balajis @nivi @metakovan @lmrankhan @nikitabase @0xrwu @ayushjaiswal @mattshumer_ @eshamanideep @sreeramkannan @dvcoolster @nusimow @TeddySolomon11 @ashtoncofer @rvivek etc
Drop your biggest engineering bottleneck below. I'll reply with how I'd attack it with Vorflux, and hand you $200 in free credits to bang out your backlog.
Our full thesis 🧵👇
A 30 views video watched by 2 of your existing customers and 1 new potential is 100 times better than 1000s of view viral video. Know why you show up and don't get distracted for random social media numbers.
Your niche is everything.

You should either get data nobody else has, or make dollars no one else can make like you do.
And best is both - most AI companies are building foundations on.

YOU SHOULD RECORD YOUR VIDEOS.
Not for views, not for dollars, but for showing up everyday even if you are not there for your customers in their office.
