Agenda:
Founders and operators on the AI tools they actually use.
A gathering of builders who are actively working with the latest AI tools across coding, product, marketing, sales, and internal operations. The conversation centers on what tools people are trying, how they decide what to adopt, and how they stay current as things keep evolving.
Founders share the stack they rely on, what they have dropped, and what has genuinely improved speed or output. Operators walk through the workflows they use day to day, how they structure prompts, where automation fits in, and what still requires human judgment.
If you are experimenting with AI or already using it in your daily work, this is a space to compare notes, discover new tools, and learn how others are building practical workflows around AI.
Address: DevX Hitec City, 4th Floor, Purva Summit, Kondapur, Whitefields, HITEC City, Hyderabad, Telangana 500081.
Date & Time: July 18th, Saturday. 6 pm to 8 pm.

Agenda:
Where founders show what they're building.
eChai Startup Demo Days happen every month, bringing together early-stage founders who are actively building.
We usually start with quick introductions so everyone knows who's around. After that, a few selected founders come up, one at a time, to walk everyone through what they're building, with their website or live product open on the screen. Each gets a few minutes, followed by questions and feedback from the group. How many come up just depends on the turnout and how the conversation is flowing, so it never feels rushed.
Not everyone presents on stage, but everyone who registers gets a spot on the event page. When you book, add a line on what you're building and a link, and it shows on your card here and on your profile. So whether or not you come up, anyone there (or anyone who opens the page later) can see what you're showing and reach out.
eChai Startup Demo Days in Hyderabad are meant to be relaxed and open: founders learn in public, get early feedback, and leave with new ideas, connections, and clarity from the community.
Address: CoKarma Durgam Cheruvu, Terrace, 5th Floor, Plot No 5, Survey No 62, Inorbit Mall Rd, HITEC City, Madhapur, Hyderabad, Telangana 500081.
Date & Time: July 25th, Saturday. 6 pm to 8 pm.
