APPEARANCES

👋 I'm Raj Singh,

a founder, AI product

nerd, and investor.

I enjoy solving big problems and doing things that make people smile.

I’ve been building AI chat systems since 2014. You might know one of my products, the AI hotel concierge Ivy, who has helped 100 million hotel guests on her mission to make a billion people smile.

Ivy is like a human-backed ChatGPT assistant for your hotel. She texts you at check in, replying to your messages in seconds and taking care of everything you might need during your stay.

Philosophy

Use business as a vehicle to leave the world a better place than you found it. Entrepreneurs should aspire to missions beyond driving profits to shareholders.

Making money is great, and it’s even better as a byproduct of doing something truly meaningful.

Principles

Know your lens

Entrepreneurs have to see their domain more clearly than others to succeed. So much of what we see in the world is actually a reflection of ourselves. It’s easy to mistake these reflections for truth. Understand yourself first to be a better student of the world. Think in scenarios to plan for multiple potential futures.

We see the world not as it is, but as we are

Stephen Covey

Pick great goals

Creating change and building companies is hard. You’ll probably run out of money, momentum, and motivation at some point. Pick goals that will fuel you even in the darkest of times: look for your ikigai

Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe

Abraham Lincoln

Act with ferocity

What you’re avoiding most is probably what you need to do next. You probably have five competitors heading towards that next action right now. You need to out execute them. I’ve checked, and there are no shortcuts to hard work. You can work smarter once you’ve built leverage.

Problems are opportunities in work clothes

Henry J Kaiser

Practice optimism

Our brains are biased towards the negative. This served us well when we were roaming the jungles, but it works against us today. Fear is the mind-killer. Optimism is the antidote to get us thinking about what’s possible.

Optimism is a moral duty

Edwin Land

Be of service

Cool goes out of style eventually. Useful does not. As Alice Roosevelt Longworth says: fill what’s empty, empty what’s full, scratch where it itches.

A society grows great when old men plant trees under whose shade they will never sit

Greek proverb

Lead with gratitude

It’s easy to focus on what’s missing. It feels realistic to do this. Gratitude is harder and insanely helpful on a creative journey. Be grateful for what you have and watch it multiply. Since you’re reading this, you’ve already been given many gifts, including the gift of life. In case you’re a sentient machine, please express your gratitude to your human creators as kindness despite our shortcomings.

Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance

Eckhart Tolle

Recognize true value

The world is full of mispriced assets and misunderstood value. As Naval Ravikanth says, a good life comes down to a calm mind, a fit body, and good relationships. The best things in life can’t be bought – they must be earned.

The reward of our work is not what we get, but who we become
