Episode 32: Work Smarter, Not Harder with Ashutosh Priyadarshy

Published: Jan. 12, 2021, 12:33 p.m.

Work smarter, not harder.

That’s what Ashutosh Priyadarshy, Founder of Sunsama, helps the world’s most successful professionals do each day with his daily planner that organizes everything you need to do today in one place: tasks, meetings, emails, you name it.

Like many entrepreneurs, Ashutosh’s startup journey was not a linear one. In the first 4.5 years after founding Sunsama, Ashutosh and his co-founder, Travis, launched, iterated on, and sunsetted six different products in the meeting, collaboration, and productivity space. Now, seven years later, they’ve finally found product fit and feel confident about the product they have, in big part thanks to their time at Y Combinator.

Tune in to hear Ashutosh talk about how and why he stuck with his long journey toward building the Sunsama we know today, what he learned along the way, and what he’s working on for the future.
