Building ChatAutoDM: A Founder’s Story

# Building ChatAutoDM: A Founder’s Story

Hi, I’m **Ashish Gampala**, a student founder passionate about building tools that help people and businesses connect better through technology.

The Beginning The idea for ChatAutoDM started when I saw how much time creators and businesses spent manually replying to messages. Engagement is powerful, but it’s not scalable if you’re doing it alone.

The Vision ChatAutoDM isn’t just about automating Instagram—it’s about creating an **AI-ready platform** that works across **multiple social platforms** seamlessly. I envision a tool where businesses can: - Automate without losing authenticity - Manage conversations across multiple platforms in one place - Use AI to personalize outreach and support at scale

Challenges as a Student Founder Building a startup as a student isn’t easy. Limited time, limited resources—but unlimited curiosity. Each obstacle is a chance to learn, and every small win fuels the bigger mission.

The Future ChatAutoDM is only the beginning. We’re working toward integrations with multiple platforms and advanced AI capabilities that will reshape how businesses grow online.

Closing Note This is more than a product—it’s a mission to empower creators, small businesses, and enterprises to connect at scale without losing the human touch.

Thank you for being part of the journey. 🚀
