About

I'm Harlaksh Singh, an entrepreneur from Bombay, India. I build profitable, bootstrapped ventures and spend most of my time at the intersection of data products, distribution, and company building.

I'm the founder of FiftySeven, a bootstrapped holding company of profitable ventures, and the FiftySeven Foundation, a modern non-profit working on solving fundamental problems. My work has spanned startup databases with deep signals, tech lookup tools indexing hundreds of millions of URLs, and data APIs built for real internal use before anything else.

I write about what I'm learning in the blog section of this site, host long-form conversations with operators and founders on the podcast page, and occasionally show up elsewhere on the internet. The best way to reach me is through any of the channels on the contact page.

If you're building something interesting, especially around data products or bootstrapped businesses, I'd like to hear about it.
