What I'm building now

JEAN, at MetisJean. Dashboards tell a company what happened. JEAN is the AI that tells it why, fast enough to act on.

I lead growth and product on it, and speak on AI, taste and distribution across the GCC and India.

Who am I

Five lanes. One operator.

Mishran (n.): a mix. Engineering dropout, stand-up comic, brand builder, growth operator. Every lane stacked on the last one, and the combination is the whole point.

Culture

I read what's moving on the internet before it has a name, and I know which part a founder can actually use.

Receipt50M+ views on one DJI campaign reel.

Comedy

Stand-up taught me attention is a craft. Bombing on stage teaches faster than any marketing course.

ReceiptOn stand-up stages since 2019.

Hip-hop

Cadence, sampling, the remix instinct. The brand has a beat and the work lands on it.

ReceiptRitviz, the Khamoshi music video.

Tech

Engineering dropout who never stopped building systems. The pipeline is the product.

Receipt50+ qualified B2B leads a week, still running after handoff.

AI

The multiplier under everything. It speeds up the work without outsourcing the taste.

NowGrowth and product on JEAN at MetisJean.

Culture × Comedy × Hip-hop × Tech × AI = THS
