Meet HeyGuru: A Quiet Space for Your Big Questions

We’re all looking for guidance, a sense of meaning, and a little companionship on the journey. It is a clear trend reflected in how we use technology today. A recent Harvard Business Review report on AI shows “Therapy/companionship” rising to become the #1 use case for 2025, with “Finding purpose” newly entering the top three.

In these new conversations, what are people asking about? Research from Anthropic reveals a pattern: a significant number of users are already turning to AI to “research and explain religious texts and cultural concepts.”

These signals point to a simple, human truth: we want a helpful companion that can ground its guidance in sources we already know and trust.

What if that companion lived in your pocket?

Welcome to Agentic Commerce: Where Smart Agents Seal the Deal

Commerce is on the edge of a profound transformation. Agentic commerce, where AI-powered agents autonomously conduct transactions, will redefine how consumers and businesses buy, sell, and interact.

These agents go beyond automating tasks. They understand intent, negotiate deals, and settle payments across interoperable systems while delivering personalized experiences at scale. Powered by emerging standards like the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Google’s Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol, agentic commerce promises a future that’s not just faster or cheaper, but fundamentally smarter.

The Motorcycle Diary

In a COVID19 world, Aryan started sorting files on his laptop during the weekend. While going through a folder, Nexus 5X, he noticed a picture from 5 years ago.

Circa 2015…

Aryan and Savchi just had their breakfast, Khara bath and coffee, at the Panchami Garden on a lazy Saturday. While walking back to Aryan’s place, Savchi goes through his email notification, pauses for a minute and clears it. Right before the entrance of Aryan’s place, Savchi mentions that he wants to go for a one-day road trip and asks Aryan to join him. But, neither of them have a motorcycle.
