Fund IQ

At Fund IQ, I analyse financial models and investor decks to produce comprehensive ratings of startups. I conduct 'Investability Assessments', which are in-depth appraisals evaluating how a startup scores across four key areas: Market, Business Opportunity, Scalability, and Executability. These assessments collectively determine the overall investability of a business.

Covid-19 lockdowns got the best of us. We couldn’t scale & there were more pressing things to focus on at that point in time.

Bots For Me

Side Hustle #1

One of the most interesting applications we worked on was sending invoice payment reminders directly through WhatsApp. We integrated Zoho accounting and WhatsApp with IBM Watson in the middle to remind our clients customers to pay invoices. To say the least the client was very happy that he didn't have to write those payment reminders himself. 

Every business needs a friendly chatbot, and that exactly what we provided. Started as a pivot from Buddy- The AI assistant where I developed chatbot development skills. We made Facebook Messenger chatbots, WhatsApp chatbots and chatbots for websites using IBM Watson, TensorFlow and Chatfuel.
