About Us and the Team
Vaya (Anuvaya Labs) was started by Maahin Puri and Nitesh Kumar Niranjan, two second-time founders who are doing the zero to one journey for a third time. The duo first teamed up at Atlys - a travel-tech startup backed by a16z and PeakXV - where Maahin was Head of Product & Nitesh Lead Engineering. They grew the Atlys consumer product to $5M in Revenue in less than a year.
All of us have felt like misfits, have no distinction between work and life, and have an obsession of designing beautiful consumer interfaces for culturally relevant uses cases for India and Indians across the world.
