I spent 20 years building products at IBM and Nike. Here's why I'm here now.
I watched a billion-dollar product ship at Nike.
I also watched a million-dollar idea die at IBM — not because the tech didn't work, but because nobody asked the one question that mattered: "Does anyone actually want this?"
That question haunted me for 20 years.
Then last year, something changed. I watched a founder with ZERO coding experience build a SaaS app in a weekend using Claude Code. She validated the idea on Tuesday, built it by Saturday, had 3 paying customers by Monday.
No developers. No $15K agency. No 6 months of waiting.
And I realized — the gap between "I have an idea" and "I have a product" just collapsed to almost nothing.
But here's what scared me: 54% of indie products still make $0. Not because they can't build anymore. Because they're building the wrong thing.
That's the gap this community exists to close.
I'm Pragati. I'm not here to sell you a course or a secret formula. I'm here because I've seen what kills great ideas — and I know it doesn't have to be that way.
This is a room for founders who build. Not watchers. Not dreamers. Builders.
Drop a comment below: What's the ONE idea you'd build this weekend if you knew how?
I'll respond to every single one.
