2026 Reflections: Building at Scale, Learning, and Enterprise Growth
By

Constant Learning is the One thing I witnessed working in YAAS, the people the culture around is Nahi ata to seekho and make sure you learn and do it well, solve problems don't rant, and keep improving. Varun Mayya (@waitin4agi_) 2026: – being an individual creator – separately running 70+ channels @ 1Bn+ views a month – running Aeos Labs (enterprise AI services) – running YAAS (enterprise content services) – 100+ enterprise clients across everything incl. Coca Cola, Cleartrip, Zoho, etc etc. – making a video game (UE5, C++) – 500+ people bootstrapped, green PnL despite *lots* of experimental spend what I enjoyed most: – hanging out with the people who are in this journey with me + board game nights (Dune Imperium Uprising) – spending time mentoring new talent and finding prodigy level talent from our large follower base (our moat imo) – running non commercial experiments with new tech. We shipped 10+ unique projects and demos last year purely to learn and improve our craft of content + tech. – teaching as much as I know before I run out of steam – graduating from mostly consumer products to enterprise contracts What I could’ve done better: – taken better care of health – people tend to make too many snap judgements about anything at scale but keeping Aeos stealth too long was a conscious choice – could’ve told the story a bit sooner – could’ve expanded a bit sooner (we delayed decisions like expanding office space because of fear of things maybe going wrong) – started internal management training sooner (leaders are everything at an org like us) – worked with large enterprises much sooner (rather than with startups). I think I significantly underestimated enterprise revenue in India. — https://nitter.net/waitin4agi_/status/2036078191069278424#m
