About

25 years. 3 continents. 7 companies. 4 failed. 2 sold. 1 building right now. That's AI Xccelerate — 21 AI agents and 18 humans working side by side. We build AI Revenue Employees for SMBs: agents that sell, support, and follow up. Real job descriptions, not chatbot feature lists. Before this: Fortune 100 CTO. Led a $2B ARR cloud business at Ingram Micro with 30K resellers. A $12M AI failure taught me more about strategy than any success ever could. Mechanical engineering dropout from Mumbai. Moved to Oman, Dubai, then Texas. Went completely broke three times. Rebuilt each time. I speak technology AND business — architecture reviews with engineers, growth strategy with CEOs. No certainty. Just 25 years of pattern recognition and candor. Building in public. I share everything I'm learning.

Anyone else keep changing their priorities because everything suddenly feels urgent?

When I started I thought the hard part would be figuring out what to build. Turns out deciding what not to work on has been much harder. Every customer request feels important every new opportunity looks worth exploring and it s easy to keep changing direction when something isn t moving fast enough. How do you know when you re being flexible versus just losing focus?

Do you work on weekends?

For me, I finish the tasks I didn t complete during the week, then try to get ahead on a few things.

And I always finish my weekend by preparing my tasks for the next week.

I know some founders completely disconnect on weekends, but I ve never really managed to do that

What about you? Do you work on weekends or completely switch off?
