Zango pairs AI-powered agents with human expertise to deliver horizon scanning, gap analysis and controls testing. Their impact is already clear with clients like Novobanco, Monzo, and Juni. Congratulations to @riteshs01, @shashank734 and the entire @zangoai team!

[Prateek Mehta @prateekmehta42]

We first partnered with @riteshs01 and @shashank734 when Zango was still at “-1.” Their deep fintech and AI expertise as second-time founders, combined with a first-principles approach, truly impressed us.

[Nexus Venture Partners @NexusVP]

For decades, financial compliance has been a reactive, manual process buried in spreadsheets—a cost center. What if it could become a real-time, strategic advantage?

We are thrilled to lead the $4.8m round in zango AI. Their regulation-aware AI agents are set to redefine the compliance landscape.

We're backing founders Ritesh Singhania and Shashank Agarwal, second-time entrepreneurs who have lived this problem and have the deep expertise in both AI and RegTech to solve it. Welcome to the Nexus family, Zango!

@riteshs01 and @shashank734 are the best founders I've met. Have always learned a lot from these folks.

Rooting for their success. Congrats to Team Zango on their fundraiser. 🚀

[Shashank Agarwal @shashank734]

Success isn't automatic. You always have to be "refounding". Few know this better than @satyanadella.

I'm excited to share our full conversation with Satya at @southpkcommons: quantum, AI, taking over Microsoft. Everything you'd want to learn from one of the GOATs.

[Aditya Agarwal @adityaag]

The Founder Fellowship is not an accelerator. That's why it's the best way to start your company.

Accelerators optimize for local maxima. @southpkcommons helps you through the ambiguity of the earliest stages so you can find global maxima.

[Prateek Mehta @prateekmehta42]

@southpkcommons Founder Fellowship applications closes 2nd Feb - the best program for founders early in their journey. We are in Bangalore, SF & NYC - offering support through ideation, early build cycles & fund raising

This is easily one of the highest talent density communities out there! If you are building something ambitious & looking for the right partner at the early stages, the apply at the link in the thread

The full, expanded list of questions we're most interested in right now at @southpkcommons (in thread form for people who don't like reading blog posts) with a bunch of additional fractal questions.

Consider this our official Request for Curiosity.
(1/many)

[Aditya Agarwal @adityaag]

We ask new @southpkcommons members not “What is your company idea” but “What are you curious about?”

The difference matters. One leaves room for fractal possibility, the other pushes for unearned certainty.

We wanted to share the questions SPC is curious about right now.

Advanced Fundraising Strategy:
For most, fundraising is a chore. These days, more companies are fortunate to have competitive rounds.

What do you do when you have options? How do you optimize a competitive round?

@wes_kao and I had options... Here's how we approached it.

As founders you can definitely feel it when product market fit is happening !!

Very well put - have felt the same often

[brett goldstein @thatguybg]

Calendly is 100x faster to set up a meeting than going back and forth with times on email.

That said, sending a Calendly link still feels weird. Anyone know why?

[Mark Lindhiem @MarkLindhiem]

How much do you really know about the investment fees and costs you pay?

Whatever your chosen strategy may be, paying more careful attention to the cost side, will lead to guaranteed benefits for fund members.
