Why Google's Chief Scientist invested in a solo founder

Hey Solo Founders,

Dhravya Shah bootstrapped and sold his first company to pay for college. Now he's dropped out of school to build Supermemory, the critical memory layer for AI, as a solo founder.

His work caught the attention of Google DeepMind's Chief Scientist and top VCs — resulting in a $3M round.

What sets Dhravya apart is his velocity: real-time customer support on Twitter and new features shipped in 24-hour sprints. As Supermemory’s lead investor Chad Byers puts it: "He possesses a real sense of urgency."

Today, we profile Dhravya as our first Solo Founders Program feature — exploring how solo founding enables a unique form of company authorship.

Read how Supermemory became "Dhravya in company form" and why this represents a compelling case for solo founding.
