Deedy: India's best founders still build in the US, citing a $20B+ startup list
deedydas · x · 2026-10-11
- Deedy doubles down on his claim that the smartest Indian founders keep coming to the US because economic incentives are far better.
- He lists Indian-founded AI/tech companies: Perplexity ($20B), Skild ($14B+), Baseten ($13B), Together ($8B), Glean ($8B), Rubrik ($25B), Modal ($5B), Harness ($5B), Luma, Cartesia and many more.
- He rejects the argument that earning 50 LPA in Whitefield, Bangalore is a checkmate: career headroom matters too.
