ML and AI are technology innovations that will not reap benefits until linked to a platform-appropriate form factor, enabled by said technology. Technology does not dictate form factorInshorts works on a combination of technology and form factor innovation. “Media houses must remember to use platform-specific form factors, which is what InShorts capitalised on,” he said. In addition to being a co-founder of Inshorts, Deepit Purkayastha is also Inshorts Chief Strategy Officer and oversees the business and strategic roadmap of the enterprise. The format and user interface that works for print media differs drastically from what works for digital, broadcast, social media or the radio. The biggest disruptions are form-factors such as email-newsletters, social media posts, news hour debates and the daily newspaper deck. Through the years, the digital space has been witness to an onslaught of tech-driven disruptions such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) driven feeds, wireless technology such as WiFi, 4G and 5G, radio waves and optic fibers, easily overwhelming the traditional news space.Ĭontrary to popular perception, technology has only enabled these disruptions in the media sector, and not caused them. Today, Inshorts is India’s highest-rated news application with more than 15 million downloads both on Android and IOS. The company became operationally profitable in November 2017, hitting a net revenue run rate of Rs 25 crore ($3.4 million), compared to Rs 3 crore ($0.4 million) in 2016. Four months later, it raised Rs 127 crore (about $17.5 million) in Series B led by Tiger Global. In 2015, Inshorts, which delivers snappy news summaries in 60 words, raised Rs 25 crore (approximately $3.4 million) in a Series A round from Tiger Global and Rebright Partners. The trio began its entrepreneurial journey with TLabs incubator in 2013, followed by a seed round from Times Internet and a group of angel investors including Flipkart founders Sachin and Binny Bansal.

Sometimes even days are spent working on a detail, variants or history of an aircraft in order to achieve highest fidelity to authenticity and references. Time is of little importance when it comes to getting things right, which is why our team gives literally hundreds of hours for research and measurements of a particular subject. Our line of products will generally consist of military jet aircrafts but we will also have some surprises about propellers. While we love almost everything that flies, our main area of interest is military aircrafts of the jet age. JETMADS is founded by aviation and modeling enthusiasts with the aim of designing and producing highly detailed accurate model aircraft kits in never-before released scales, currently in polyurethane resin and limited numbers. Jet Model Aircraft Design Studio we are, or JETMADS in short.
