On raising startups and family

Hi sunir, yes, my personal life is a mess because I've taken on more work than I can balance against the needs of my family. I imagine most founders with family find themselves in the same spot and one side ends up folding (hopefully the startup and not the family).

The business side of things is healthy, but I can't keep running at the same pace I have been for my family's sake. I need to scale back my hours, hence we're hiring.

Kumu is actually a platform for all things relationships, not just mindmapping. We're primarily focused on systems mapping (elements, connections, feedback loops, etc) and network mapping (social, stakeholder analysis, etc) -- many of our customers actually blend the two within a single project.
