Each product here is dated to decide. The thesis is what we believe. The test is what it has to do to count as alive. The deadline is when we decide. The review is where we own the call — sign in to read it. If a product doesn't appear here, it's not a real bet — it's a hobby.

Thesis
Adults on GLP-1 therapy in India will adopt a clean dose-tracking tool that produces a doctor-ready PDF. Monetization comes from pharma B2B and telehealth referrals, not consumer subscriptions.
Test
1,000 active weekly trackers + 1 signed LOI with a pharma or telehealth partner.
Deadline
2026-09-30 — end of Q3.
Review
Under 200 weekly actives by deadline, OR no pharma/telehealth conversation past first call. Then: pivot or kill, no soft-landing.

Thesis
Indian F&O retail traders want educational tools (payoffs, Greeks, paper trading) more than signals. We can build a paying education product without SEBI Research Analyst registration, which is the gate before any signal product.
Test
100 paying education-only users at ₹299–499/mo, with retention >60% at month 2. No signals required to clear the bar.
Deadline
2026-12-31 — end of Q4.
Review
If education-only retention is under 40% at month 2, or if we can't hit 100 paying without leaning on signals, the unit economics don't work here — kill, don't pivot into a SEBI-gated product.

Thesis
Engineers preparing for Azure work want hands-on sandboxes with designed failure modes and explain-it-back checkpoints — not lecture videos. They'll pay if sandbox unit economics hold.
Test
Public launch by 2026-09-30, then 500 paying users/month on the platform within 6 months. Gross margin per active >50% after Azure pass-through.
Deadline
2027-03-31 — six months post-launch decision point.
Review
Waitlist → paid conversion under 5%, OR per-user Azure burn breaks gross margin past 50%. Kill or pivot to a synthetic-sandbox model.

Thesis
Telugu readers will build a daily habit around “on this day” history in their own language. The habit is the asset: free to read forever, with tasteful AdSense later — only once the habit is real. Ads before habit would kill it.
Test
1,000 daily readers arriving organically — search plus direct — sustained for 30 days, with zero paid acquisition.
Deadline
2026-12-31 — two full quarters after the 2026-06-12 launch.
Review
Under 200 daily readers by deadline: freeze investment. The nightly rebuild costs almost nothing, so the site stays up as a public archive — but no new curation hours and no ads on a site nobody reads.

Thesis
A panchangam computed from real astronomy — our own drik-ganita engine, not copied tables — can earn daily trust. If the app shows its work and matches the printed almanac, Telugu users will open it every morning.
Test
Engine accuracy parity with published panchangams across a full Telugu year, then 500 weekly actives within one quarter of App Store launch.
Deadline
2027-03-31 — accuracy proven and the App Store launch call made by then.
Review
If the engine can't match published panchangams on tithi and nakshatra boundaries, the thesis fails at the root — fix the math or kill it. A wrong panchangam is worse than none.
