The Genesis of EaseMyHood:

EaseMyHood was born from Atharva Gupta’s passion for technology and his desire to make a difference in his community. At the age of 16 years, Atharva embarked on a mission to bridge the gap between local businesses and the digital marketplace. Drawing inspiration from his own experiences and observations, he envisioned a platform that would empower local businesses to compete and thrive in the ever-evolving e-commerce landscape.

Speaking to Karostartup, “At the end of 2023, I started hiring interns to make my vision become a reality. It was really hard as a 16 year old to convince people nearly double my age or 5-10 years older than me to do an unpaid internship as my startup is bootstrapped . Hours and hours of interviews and many interns leaving me behind taught me many lessons about startup management . Now I have an Awesome team of marketing interns who are really passionate about the idea and are working on building EaseMyHood’s identity before launch.”

Empowering Local Businesses:

At the heart of EaseMyHood lies a commitment to empower local businesses and uplift India’s MSMEs (Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises). Atharva Gupta, the solo founder of EaseMyHood, leads the charge with a vision to revolutionise local commerce and solve issues of unemployment among youth.
