Indian tech tycoon bets $30M of his own money to build AI alternative to Microsoft Office
Neo is Bhavin Turakhia’s fifth venture and his latest involving enterprise software. This time he's taking on Microsoft Office, Google Apps with AI.

An Indian entrepreneur is investing 30 million dollars of his own money to create a new enterprise software platform that combines project management, documents, file storage, and AI into a single product.

This bet comes as enterprise AI has become a highly competitive area, with major tech companies and numerous startups racing to reshape how businesses use AI in their workflows.

Using Lift to Turn Research PDFs into Structured JSON with Controlled, Schema-Guided Field-Level Evaluation
In this tutorial, we build a complete PDF-to-structured-data extraction workflow around Lift, with a focus on controlled evaluation rather than a simple demo run. We begin by preparing a Colab-compatible GPU environment, selecting the appropriate precision mode for the available hardware, and patching model loading to ensure the Lift backend runs reliably even on constrained 16 GB GPUs via 4-bit NF4 quantization. From there, we generate synthetic multi-page research reports with deliberately pl
