Plus, twitter bio suggests that they are now positioning as an AI powered content platform? Welcome to the peak AI era. Time to jump off the AI bandwagon when normies start chanting AI AI AI.

2B is too much for company that provides no value

Finally a correction, should be much lower. All of these are stressed assets, will see a lot more of these deals.

Paper prices to tank soon.

Absolutely great for it. India's private market return capabilities need a reality check.

@salt Sharechat has been positioned as an AI first company way before AI hype. We are one of the few companies based out of the subcontinent taking part in various global Recsys related events. Infact we have been building our AI team globally since the last 3/4 years.

Thoughts on Sharechat

Are they dying a slow death? Is it going to create any value in the long term or just founders make some money via secondaries and chill in life

Crisis in ShareChat?

Heard on Twitter that social media app ShareChat is going BUST.

  • At ~$42m revenue, it's valued at 120x rev
  • ~95m DAU in rural India
  • Founders cashed out $10m in secondaries.

Is this true?
