Over estimated Indian small merchant. They don't pay a Penny extra to even their families.

Lol.. truer words were never spoken.

Dukaan is doing good but still not as close as Shopify

How are they growing?

There Ecom tools/integrations are really good and are mostly used by every agency in india

Bharat Focussed startups are a scam. Tier-2, tier-3 and lower cities are reimagined as dehaatis who would like to pay money for shit not really useful. Dehaatis on the other hand are obsessed with foren shit and would be personally insulted if you try to scam them with low effort startup.

Bikayi more like thukai

thukai work culture?

Fudged numbers and raised money , No real Product market fit

Doesn’t Koo belong to that list as well ? 😁

It does🥲

Sector should be renamed as Bharat scammers these guys brought nothing to the table. They did not innovate for sustained revenue. They just followed the typical burn cash for growth which as we know does not work with Indian consumers with lower purchase power compared to western counterparts

What do you guys think aout Fibr?

Recently interviewed with them

Regarding what

Khatabook, Dukaan have good PR and bad business. They seem to be slowly dying. They do not have moat or consumers who can pay or users who stick with them
