Summary

Teacher‑entrepreneur focused on classroom augmentation: Janak draws directly on hands‑on classroom experience (assistant guide roles and many Socratic discussions) to build CoGuide, an AI product that augments teachers by planning lessons, running live discussions, tracking participation and engagement, and preserving student privacy (e.g., geometric mapping rather than recording). He emphasizes augmentation over replacement and has piloted the product in North Texas schools. buzzsprout+1
Early‑stage founder with cross‑functional product and GTM experience: Beyond product, Janak has early career strategy/GTM exposure (Versa Networks) and consulting/operations roles for small businesses, indicating a blend of product design, go‑to‑market thinking, and operational execution common in early startups. versa-networks+1
Public technical footprint and builder mindset: Janak maintains a public GitHub with multiple repos and has built MVPs and prototypes (including no‑code and code‑based prototypes) that grew into CoGuide's Vision OS. This shows hands‑on engineering/product involvement beyond pure strategy or operations. github
Student leadership and rapid iteration: As a young founder who partnered with a very young cofounder, Janak demonstrates comfort working in student/peer networks, running rapid sprints from idea to MVP, and iterating with early customers (Acton/Launchpad/independent schools). buzzsprout+1
