Growth briefs for founders and teams
The person behind the briefs

I'm Vinay.
I build, and I study growth.

Wirefeed is where I work through how software companies get discovered, win customers, and become part of the way people work.

Why this exists

Research should help with the next decision.

I build Layerpath, an interactive demo platform. That gives me a practical reason to study demand, onboarding, conversion, and retention. I want to understand the choices behind a company's growth and which parts might transfer to another product.

Each Wirefeed brief follows one question through a company's story. It connects what was reported to an interpretation, then proposes something a founder or growth team could test.

How I work

The evidence stays visible.

I read product pages, founder interviews, release notes, customer accounts, and other public sources. AI helps with research and organization. I choose the argument and take responsibility for what gets published.

Company-reported figures stay attributed and dated. A hypothesis stays a hypothesis. Suggested experiments include what to measure and when to stop.

The briefs are free to read in full. Some stories also have a short illustrated film. New work is published when there is a useful question and enough evidence to answer it.

Before Wirefeed

The research started with building.

Earlier field notes appeared in Pathfinder, my LinkedIn newsletter. Wirefeed's October editions bring that work into a more focused format: a growth story, its evidence, and a practical application.
