Clueso
About Us
The story of Clueso is a journey shaped by curiosity, ambition and a commitment to building great products and great businesses.
It all started with Desklamp, a reading tool that redefined how users take notes. Created by Akash Anand, Neel Balar, and Prajwal Prakash during their years at IIT Madras, Desklamp allowed users to highlight, search, and collaborate effortlessly. The product amassed over 10,000 users/
It isn’t everyday you have a great product idea– it's even rarer to have two brilliant ones. In 2023, the trio pivoted to a new business with an exceptional idea: Clueso, they called it. Content creation, especially in the corporate world, is messy, time-consuming, and often dull. Training videos, onboarding material, customer education content cost loads in both time and money and the final product is less than stellar.
Clueso solves this with a touch of brilliance. Clueso’s mission became clear—harness AI to create studio-quality instructional videos from something as simple as a screen recording. Raw, unpolished efforts transform into professional-grade content in minutes. It's like having your personal video editor, minus being followed around by an overeager intern. Backed by Y Combinator, they redefine how businesses approach content production.
Their work isn’t just smart; it’s thoughtful. A glance at their LinkedIn attests to this to.. Neel, Akash and Prajwal talk about their personal journey with building a product together. They are raw, honest, and capture the attention of other founders- and deservedly so. Their refreshing candor on building a business, we think, helps them make their mark in the startup ecosystem today.
Clueso’s culture is deeply rooted in the values of its founders. Transparency, humility, and adaptability form the backbone of their team’s ethos. They listen to their customers, embrace the lessons learned from failures and adapt quickly to new challenges. This approach extends to their product, ensuring it remains customer-focused and continually refined.
The result? A growing community of users who see Clueso as more than just a tool—it’s a partner in creativity and efficiency.
