Meet Pranjali Awasthi
Let me tell you an inspiring story about Pranjali Awasthi, a 16-year-old trailblazer who proves that age is truly just a number when it comes to entrepreneurship. At just 15, Pranjali founded her technology startup, Delv.AI, which is now valued at an impressive ₹100 crore. Yes, you read that right! Her firm has already raised $450,000 in funding, and she employs a team of 10, all while focusing on building her dream.
Pranjali’s journey began in India, but at the age of 11, she moved to Florida, USA. Her father, a computer engineer, played a big role in shaping her passion for technology. He began teaching her coding when she was just seven. By the time she was a teenager, Pranjali had studied mathematics and computer science for two years and even interned at the Florida International University lab working on machine learning projects.
During her internship, she was tasked with searching, extracting data, and generating literature reviews. Then came a game-changing moment in 2020 - OpenAI released its ChatGPT-3 beta version. Pranjali saw an opportunity. “I knew we could use it to make extracting and summarizing research data easier,” she shared. And that’s exactly what Delv.AI does today: it helps researchers quickly find precise, specific information from the overwhelming amount of content available online.
In 2021, Pranjali took another bold step by joining an accelerator program. It wasn’t just about funding; the program offered her valuable mentorship and an early network of industry professionals. Her parents supported her dream wholeheartedly, even allowing her to take a break from high school.
The first big break came when she launched Delv.AI’s beta version on Product Hunt, a platform where people share new software. The exposure helped her secure her first investment, which she used to hire her first engineer. That initial success gave her the momentum to grow, and the rest is history.
Today, Pranjali is fully focused on refining her product and raising funds to scale her business. While she has decided to skip college, for now, she’s not ruling it out entirely. She mentioned that she might consider attending in the future to learn skills like law and psychology that could help her run her business even better.
Pranjali’s story is a testament to the power of courage, determination, and a little bit of risk-taking. At just 16, she’s shown us what’s possible when you pursue your dreams relentlessly. Whether you’re 16 or 60, her journey reminds us all to seize the opportunities that come our way and believe in our ability to make a difference.
