Hi! I’m Neil Thanedar.

I’m a founderinvestorscientistauthor, and political advisor.

I’m probably best known as Founder & CEO (now Chairman) of Labdoor (YC W15).

I’ve also co-founded two other startups + one nonprofit.

In my 14+ year career, my startups have raised $20M+ and are now worth $100M+.

This is my official website where I share my ideas, notes, podcasts, and videos.

I’m active in Michigan politics, especially supporting my dad, US Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-Detroit).

I’m also a super active dad of two (third on the way!) and love coaching my boys!

I’m also writing a book about The World’s Biggest Problems!
