Our Mission

Humanizing Entrepreneurship

Sharing the authentic, unfiltered stories of Indian founders. We go beyond the valuations to explore the grit, the failures, and the personal journeys that forge great companies.

Why We Started

The Indian startup ecosystem is booming, but the headlines often only tell a small part of the story. We see the funding rounds, the unicorn valuations, and the successful exits. What we don't always see is the immense struggle, the sleepless nights, the critical mistakes, and the personal sacrifices that happen behind the scenes.

FounderStory.in was created to fill that gap. We believe that the most valuable lessons come not just from success, but from the entire journey—the highs and the lows. Our goal is to provide a platform where founders can share their real stories, offering aspiring entrepreneurs a genuine look at what it truly takes to build something from nothing.

What We Do

We conduct in-depth, long-form interviews with founders from across India, covering every industry and stage of growth. From bootstrapped dreamers in Tier-2 cities to the leaders of global SaaS companies, we seek out the narratives that inspire, educate, and resonate.
