5 selected AI founders + the Hashed Emergent team live together in a villa in Gurgaon for a week. A structured daily rhythm of speaker sessions, focused building, and evening critique rounds. No fluff — every founder ships something real by demo day.
Each day kicks off with talks and conversations to set the tone — insights from builders, investors, and the Hashed Emergent team.
The core of every day. Heads down, shipping mode. Fast internet, dedicated workspaces, and zero distractions — just build.
Every evening, founders present progress and get direct, honest feedback from the group and the HEM team. Iterate overnight, ship the next day.
On the last day, every founder demos what they shipped live. First edition result: 5 out of 5 founders shipped a working product or major milestone.
“Non-technical founders can ship production apps in one week with modern AI coding tools. Focused, distraction-free environment + daily feedback loops dramatically accelerate progress.”
— Key takeaway from Edition 1
Real-world AI insights from founders and CEOs who joined the villa — culture, workflows, and product philosophy.
You don't need the full roadmap before you start. Begin with one thought, build flow by flow from the user's perspective, and let AI be your thinking partner through each iteration.
The entire group shifted from "plan everything first" to "start building and evolve with AI."

AI is deeply integrated across the entire travel-tech stack — automated itinerary building, internal operations, and faster decision-making with richer context. TravClan rewards employees with travel incentives for actively adopting and experimenting with AI tools.
A smart, thoughtful way to drive genuine AI usage and build a true AI-first company culture from the inside.

Different teams use different AI tools based on their workflows. Marketing: fully automated pipeline (strategy → copywriting → posting) via a dedicated Slack channel. Content: AI handles script writing and short-form video generation. Product, operations, and finance all actively using AI.
Vipul continues to experiment personally, showing leadership by example.
