Neer Sharma shared 6 startup ideas and the frameworks he would use to grow them: 

1) Baby Fund: a JustGiving for parents to raise money that can only be invested into their kid’s future 

• Crowdsource money from family/friends at baby showers
• Invest only in index tracker funds
• Could help solve the "can't afford kids" problem for millennials.

2) Anti-Spend: The app that gamifies saving money 

• Track money you DON'T spend
• Show future value of savings
• Create dopamine hit from NOT buying
• Growth hack: Tap into FIRE and minimalism movements on TikTok

3) Cold Turkey: Gamified app to help people quit vaping 

• Real-time counter shows how long you've been "cold turkey"
• Mini-games to distract during cravings
• Social sharing for accountability
• Potential to expand to other addictions.

4) Gold Stars: Gamification app for parents to motivate kids

• Think: "Starbucks app, but for kids"
• Parents set tasks, kids earn stars
• Unlock rewards at milestones (e.g. 100 stars = $10 Amazon item)

5) Long Live Research Inc: Personalized longevity research summaries 

• Input your health concerns/family history
• Receive summaries of relevant academic papers
• Target the "don't die" community (e.g. Bryan Johnson fans)
• Easiest to start, potentially most profitable.

6) Ayurvedic Products for the West: Rebrand Indian health products
• Create algorithm-breaking packaging and content
• Leverage TikTok Shop and influencer marketing
• Key: Make it VISUALLY scroll-stopping for maximum algo impact!
