Built by a founder who needed it first

Pranan exists because its creator ran out of hours in the day and refused to accept that as the ceiling.

// The story

How this started

I run INSIDEA, a 150+ person agency that serves 1,500+ businesses as an Elite HubSpot Partner. I operate across multiple ventures simultaneously.

At some point, the communication load broke the system. Not emotionally. Operationally. I was getting 200+ messages a day across Gmail, Slack, and Calendar. I had a team of 150 people who needed responses. Clients across time zones. Partners in different countries. And a son who deserved a father who was present.

I didn't need another productivity tool. I needed a second me. One that knew how I think, how I write, how I prioritize. One that could take the first pass at my communication, with me approving every reply, so I could focus on the parts that actually needed me.

That's what Pranan is. It's the AI I built for myself first. Now I'm building it for everyone who's ever felt like their inbox is running their life instead of the other way around. The name is personal to me. That part of the story is mine to share when the moment feels right.

// The builder

Built by Pratik Thakker

Pratik Thakker is Founder and CEO of INSIDEA. Built across multiple ventures and time zones, Pranan comes from a real operational problem: when you're running multiple companies simultaneously, communication becomes a bottleneck. Pratik built this for himself first because he needed a digital version that could think like him, write like him, and draft the routine communication for his review so he could focus on relationships and strategy.

// What we believe

Our principles

Your data, your rules

We encrypt everything, train nothing on your data, and give you full control over what your AI can and cannot do. Privacy is not a feature. It is the foundation.

Built for trust

Pranan earns your trust before it earns your time. It learns through supervised interaction, and you approve every email before it is sent.

Always improving

Your Pranan gets better the longer you use it. Every correction sharpens it. Every approval reinforces it. It grows with you, not apart from you.

This started as a personal project. Now it's yours too.
