Proud early believers, and even prouder today! @entri_app partnering with @udemy is a big step towards something we’ve believed in from day one: India’s next wave of learners will come from native-language audiences, not just metro English-first users. From the very beginning, Entri has been obsessed with one thing: making career outcomes real for India’s 400M+ vernacular learners. This partnership brings together Udemy’s global content engine with Entri’s deep local execution, unlocking access, relevance, and scale. Huge credit to @hisaming for building with clarity and conviction, and for staying focused on outcomes over optics. Excited for what’s ahead!

Meesho's AOV is roughly between 220 and 270 rupees. Unpopular opinion: I hope that the AOV would settle at the lower end (around 220 rupees). For Meesho's specific audience, frequency is more important than basket size. Unlike premium shoppers who consolidate 5 to 10 items into a single "basket," Meesho's customers tend to buy single items as needed. Lowering the AOV reduces the "friction of buying," with the goal of encouraging users to shop 15 to 20 times a year rather than making fewer, larger purchases. Because the AOV is so low, Meesho cannot rely on standard commissions. This necessitated a shift to a "zero commission" model where they monetize through seller advertising instead. I really enjoyed talking to Utsav and Dhruv about our journey with Meesho and its evolution to what it is today. I still can't believe 78% of Meesho's retail subscription was filled in the first hour!

Cooking something big up with @hisaming. Watch this space!

This is a huge win not just for @Entri_app, but for the entire Indian edtech ecosystem. Democratizing education in local languages is key to unlocking India's potential. Proud to be on this journey with you @hisaming!

Love you @hisaming
