For more than a decade, I tried to meditate but never could. With Temple, I could finally see my slow progress, even when my racing mind felt nothing.

Entropy is a delightful metric that helps me live a fuller, calmer life. And it also pushes me to workout more, and in the right ways (more on that soon).

The Temple team has made a breakthrough.

We have discovered (literally discovered) a biomarker, only readable on the temple region, and nowhere else, that measures the real-time cost of you being alive.

We are calling it Entropy™.

It's a live number on Temple's home screen, updating every second, on an index from 1 to 250.

1 is the deepest rest we've ever recorded. We've only seen fit, experienced meditators touch it, for fleeting moments deep in practice. 250 is the highest we've seen in elite athletes at the peak of their output and flow.

Everything moves Entropy. Sleep, stress, a sprint, coffee, a meal, a cold plunge, meditation, strength training... everything moves your metabolism, your cost of being alive. And Entropy tracks it, live.

Heart Rate doesn’t come even close to this level of precision in calculating the cost of being alive. We benchmarked Entropy and Heart Rate against a standard metabolic cart (calorimeter). Over a hundred cardio sessions, Entropy tracked the calorimeter's curve at r=0.93 and p <0.001. Heart Rate managed a meagre r=0.55.

Here's why Entropy should matter to you –

Your Entropy Maxima is the highest your body can reach when you push it hard. A high peak is the signature of a capable body, one that can rise to meet effort and recover from it. As we age, that ceiling naturally falls, so this is the number to push upwards.

Your Entropy Minima is the lowest your body settles to at rest. Across the animal world, a lower cost of being alive at rest tends to go with a longer life. Your Entropy Minima is the number to bring down, every single day.

Living with Entropy is magical. 
It teaches you so much about yourself, that no other metric ever has. We are looking forward to you trying out Temple. But not before it’s perfect.

A book about Blinkit, now on Blinkit.

I have no idea how @albinder finds time for writing books alongside all that he has to do, but this is an excellent read about the challenges of starting up, building, breaking, and rebuilding for retail in India.

A few hundred signed copies available on Blinkit.

[Deepinder Goyal @deepigoyal]

Just crossed 100k applications for the 100 introductory Temple devices.

To the 100 who get one: you're the founding cohort. We'll be grateful for what you teach us.

To the rest: we're building as fast as we can without compromising what @temple needs to be.

Follow @temple for updates.

[Deepinder Goyal @deepigoyal]

Heart Rate is just one of the simpler things. Temple sees more.

Today we’re launching Blinkit inside the Mumbai Airport!

Specifically Terminal 2 (Domestic departures) of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport.

Through our partnership with Adani Airports, travellers can now order from a selection of 2500+ products like phone chargers, books, gifts and more on the Blinkit app. Orders will be delivered within the terminal by our dedicated team of walkers.

This is the first airport in the world to have a service of this kind and we're excited to deliver all the last-minute needs of our customers.

P.S - update your Blinkit app to the latest version to order.

We just completed a successful flight for our tech demonstrator, Lat One v0.2.

Lat Aerospace is building ultra-short takeoff and landing aircraft using blown wing technology. Think fixed-wing performance with near-helicopter access.

A couple of months ago, v0.1 achieved uSTOL but crashed shortly after. That was expected. v0.2 was about completing the full mission, and it did. The blown wing concept worked in reality. Closed-loop control got validated. We'd predicted a cruise speed of 30-32 m/s and cruised comfortably at 33. No thermal issues despite a burning afternoon. The quick-detach wings held through aggressive turns. Was in the air for over 6 minutes. Smooth touchdown, and ready to fly again.

But the thing that makes me the happiest isn't any of that. It's that our CFD studies, aerodynamic models, SIL simulations, and flight logs all match, almost perfectly. That's what real engineering looks like. I am so proud of our team.

A long way to go, and we are getting there.

Temple has raised its first round. Friends and family. $54m. Post-money valuation of ~$190m.

Every investor in this round is a founder friend or early-stage Zomato investor who wanted in, whether or not Temple ever makes it to market.

But here's what gives me goosebumps – more than 30 Temple employees participated in the round, at par valuation. No discount. Their own money. That's the kind of belief you can't buy.

We are assembling a dream team to build the ultimate wearable for elite performance athletes. Want in? Look up my last post.

[Deepinder Goyal @deepigoyal]

We're recruiting at @temple.

At Temple, we are building the ultimate wearable for elite performance athletes. A device that measures what no other wearable in the world measures, with a level of precision that doesn't exist yet.

To build it, we need people who are obsessive about both the craft and the category. Engineers who are also athletes. People who will wear what they build, and hate it until it's perfect.

Roles we're hiring for:

🟠 Analog Systems Engineers, Electronics Design Engineers
🟠 Embedded Systems Engineers — low-level HW bring-up, embedded signal and image processing, embedded AI
🟠 Design and Validation Engineers — sensors, actuators, battery, antenna, optics
🟠 CMF Engineers, Adhesive Materials Engineers
🟠 Sensor Algorithms Engineers — estimation theory, sensor fusion
🟠 Deep Learning Engineers — ML model development for physiological metrics
🟠 Computational Neuroscientists
🟠 BCI Engineers — real-time EEG/EMG acquisition and processing
🟠 Neural Decoding Researchers — brain activity to semantic mapping
🟠 Computer Vision Engineers — facial microexpression, subvocal muscle detection
🟠 Neuroimaging ML Engineers — multimodal sensor fusion
🟠 Last but not the least, product managers who work through Figma without needing a designer to hold their hand

Important – we are building for people who push their bodies to the edge. We want to be those people, not just serve them. So only people who take fitness seriously, and have body fat <16% (men) and 26% (women) should apply. If you're not there yet but will commit to getting there in three months, you can apply too; but you'll be on probation until you are.

Write to [email protected] with your core skill as the subject line.

Come find your tribe.

Gentle reminder to all the concerned doctors and/or influencers

We haven’t made any public commercial announcements about Temple yet. We haven’t released any official device benchmarking data. A lot of the work is still underway; we’re months away from introducing preview devices to the public, if at all.

You are advising people not to buy an “unvalidated” device that isn’t even available to order or pre-order yet. That’s funny, tbh.

We will share all the science if and when we decide to sell Temple. You can judge and give all your advice at that moment. Until then, be curious, and cheer Indian startups? Your skepticism is valuable, but at the right time.

Coming soon.

I’m not sharing this as the CEO of Eternal, but as a fellow human, curious enough to follow a strange thread. A thread I can’t keep with myself any longer.

It’s open-source, backed by science, and shared with you as part of our common quest for scientific progress on human longevity.

Newton gave us a word for it. Einstein said it bends spacetime. I am saying gravity shortens lifespan. 

Read on, and tell me what you think.

[Deepinder Goyal @deepigoyal]

Once upon a time, people believed the Earth was flat. And then they didn’t. Then they believed the sun revolved around the Earth. Until they didn’t.

Humanity has built rockets, sequenced genomes, and cloned cells. Yet, in all our brilliance, we may have missed something glaringly simple.

At Continue, we’ve been chasing a crazy insight into why we age; a pattern that’s been hiding in plain sight for eternity. We’ve tried desperately to disprove it. We couldn’t.

Two years later, clues from biology, physics, evolution, and medicine are all pointing in the same direction.

In 48 hours, I’ll share what we’ve found and how one element of our environment may hold the key to slowing human aging.

Stay tuned.

[Deepinder Goyal @deepigoyal]

So many people keep asking me about Continue. What is it? What are you up to? Here you go...

Continue started as a research effort two years ago, with the belief that if the human body is a system, it should also have its leverage points. The simple levers that, when adjusted, could fundamentally alter how we age and live.

Along with a team of initially skeptical researchers, we've been investigating a penny-drop insight about human aging. Something that's been hiding in plain sight for eternity. But more on that in a few weeks. We are at the tail-end of the research on this hypothesis, which if true, could fundamentally change our understanding of biology and aging.

But today isn't about that. It's bigger than that.

Today, we are expanding Continue Research to include a $25 million fund (entirely personally backed) to support researchers across the world who dare to ask simpler questions than anyone else. Who believe biology might be far simpler than we've made it.

For over a decade, I have believed that most of the world’s problems stem from our short human lifespans. Continue Research’s goal is to extend healthy human function long enough that humans stop making short-term decisions.

Read more about Continue’s purpose at – https://t.co/2jbRl1CHvq

This will be a multi-decadal journey. Our goal here is to become a small catalyst in humanity's journey of conscious evolution. To lead us into the Post-Darwin era.

Researchers, please look us up and apply for funding/grants at – https://t.co/3bbtOyXEPf
