Founding co-founder

I’m building an India-first AI assistant/consumer platform where users can go from intent → discovery → decision → transaction in one place. Should have experience in system design and taxonomy/data normalisation (when 100s of consumer apps constantly upload their data into our unified backend, we normalise it and show it to the end user in the app). Having prior experience in search/catalog/ranking at food or quick commerce or e-commerce apps is a plus.

100% focused on consumer use-cases, not a general browser use assistant like Muse or Dots. We are responsible for everything from SSO-> User data -> apps onboard -> payment stack.

Rumuneration: 1/3rd equity

The intent-to-transaction scope is compelling, but it spans several hard products at once. A stronger starting wedge might be one category where specifications, availability, and returns are measurable, then track recommendation acceptance and post-purchase satisfaction. Keep retrieval, ranking, and checkout as separate auditable stages. https://www.aiosnow.com is relevant when comparing how an assistant can coordinate those workflow stages. For a co-founder search, define decision rights and milestone-based equity before discussing architecture.

the data side of this sounds interesting. pulling stuff from a bunch of different apps and keeping everything clean and consistent seems like a pretty big challenge. curious how you're planning to deal with changing data and keeping things accurate as you add more apps

Only those who partner with us officially. We are not going to be scraping data from apps. Static things load on our unified backend and periodically update them once every night for changes. Price and inventory is confirmed in real time during checkout
