🚀 Meet Pranjali Awasthi — The Teen Genius Who Built a ₹100 Crore AI Startup at Just 16!
At an age when most kids are busy with homework and hanging out with friends, Pranjali Awasthi was building something extraordinary — an AI company worth ₹100 crore! 😲 Yes, you read that right!
Say hello to the young techie who’s not just dreaming big but actually doing big things in the world of Artificial Intelligence. With her sharp mind, curious spirit, and love for coding, Pranjali has become a true inspiration for kids across the globe.
🧠 A Young Mind with Big Ideas
Pranjali grew up in India and started coding at just 7 years old (thanks to her dad who’s an engineer!). By the time she was 11, her family moved to Florida, USA — and that’s where her tech journey took off like a rocket 🚀
She joined advanced coding and math classes, and before long, she was interning at a real machine learning lab! (And we thought science projects were tough!)
💡 The Birth of Delv.AI
In 2022, at the age of just 15, Pranjali launched her startup Delv.AI — a super smart tool that helps researchers find information faster and easier. Imagine Google, but with AI magic that pulls out the exact info you need from millions of research papers. 📚✨
The idea came to her when she saw how hard it was to dig through data online. Instead of waiting for someone else to solve it, she did it herself! 💪
🌍 From Bedroom to Boardroom
With help from the startup accelerator HF0 in Miami, Pranjali pitched her idea like a pro. Investors loved it — and she raised ₹3.7 crore in funding! 💸 Her app launched on Product Hunt and boom — Delv.AI became a rising star in the AI world.
Today, she leads a team of 10 — managing coding, product, marketing, and even customer chats. Talk about multitasking goals!
🎓 School Can Wait, Dreams Can’t
While most teens are worried about exams, Pranjali has taken a break from formal schooling to focus full-time on her startup. But don’t worry — she still plans to study further in the future (just in her own way!).
