12. In my last quarter (Spring ’11), me and Akshay (my
cofounder) took Launchpad at the dschool. The idea was extremely simple – create the best news
reading experience on mobile devices. We created and launched an iPad ap
(called Pulse) during the class. Got great feedback and have now turned it into a company. Pulse has
now grown to 8people with apps on on iPad, iPhone and Android platforms
The dschool has helped us tremendously in launching Pulse.
We were working out of cafes whilebuilding Pulse. This allowed us to code something up, test it with
our users (who were around us sipping coffee) and iterate on the app
multiple times a day. Even now, we have multiple user testing/iteration cycles before launching any
feature. We haveteam brainstorms around a pov about couple times ever
week; coaching new employees on brainstorming along the
way.
The idea was extremely
simple – create the best
news reading experience on
mobile devices.

Ankit and Akshay accepted an

21. Ankit Gupta: I learnt skills like brainstorming,
interviewing users, rapid prototyping making mind maps
etc. that I could apply to any problem out there and
come up with creative solutions. I learnt the importance
of executing; getting something out there fast and
iterating on it with user feedback.
But, most importantly, I think I learned that creativity
is always in hindsight
