Emergent: How Six Months of Tinkering Led To A $100M ARR Company

Emergent co-founder Mukund explains how six months of unstructured AI tinkering after leaving Dunzo led him and his twin brother Madhav to build an AI platform for creating and shipping working software. He describes Emergent’s multi-agent system, learned memory, and infrastructure, and how building toward what models might soon do helped the team choose ambitious problems. Lessons from Dunzo include tackling hard operational problems, staying close to customers, and focusing on what works. His advice to founders is to trust their intuition, think globally from day one, and pursue ambitious ideas.
