“As urban temperatures soar, we need cooling solutions that help us cope but without the associated climate footprint. Optimist’s AC addresses this critical gap in the market and I am looking forward to getting mine soon!”

“Solving hard problems requires deep conviction. I’m a firm believer in Optimist’s mission to drive real progress. Ashish and Pranav have the right mindset to build something meaningful, and I’m excited to have a ring-side view of their journey.”

“Optimist is quietly redefining what premium and sustainable should mean — not just for India, but globally. Ashish and Pranav combine execution speed with deep integrity and a genuine commitment to climate adaptation and the planet. Founders like these don’t just build products — they build movements.”

Arjun Gupta

“Most run away from solving hard problems. Some care more about the consequences of success rather than the probability or pathway. Such is the story of Ashish and his team at Optimist, who are taking a crack at one of the most important global issues with a first principles approach.”

“With a changing environment, cooling at scale is becoming a fundamental need for our society. It’s a hard engineering and manufacturing challenge and we need more teams willing to take on the toughest engineering challenges. I’m backing Optimist because they have the technical depth and the long-term vision needed to solve hard problems that actually matter for our future.”
