With over 40,000 AI tools now flooding the market, the problem in AI isn’t innovation, it’s discovery. That’s the gap Nebula AI set out to close earlier this year. Now, the startup is leveling up once again with the addition of a powerhouse Gen-Z co-founder: Raghav Bansal.
A five-time hackathon winner, two-time founder, and Techstars-backed entrepreneur, Bansal joins Adrian Nunez, Nebula’s original founder, to accelerate the platform’s roadmap and expand its reach.
“Raghav’s background is a perfect match,” says Adrian Nunez. “He’s lived the discovery problem over and over. Bringing him in wasn’t just logical, it was necessary.”
Bansal’s resume speaks volumes. Before joining Nebula, he founded:
- An AI agency helping small business owners automate workflows
- Aayats, a Techstars-backed AI platform that reshaped music collaboration through prompt-based team formation
- An AI ad creation engine that analyzed and improved ad performance across social platforms like Meta and YouTube
Each startup required testing and integrating dozens of AI tools and highlighted the same pain point: there was no centralized, intuitive way to find or manage the best ones.
“There were days I spent more time researching tools than actually building,” Bansal says. “When Adrian showed me Nebula, I knew I had to be part of it.”
Launched in June 2025, Nebula AI is now preparing for its v02 launch in November, featuring:
- A fully redesigned UI
- Smarter recommendation algorithms
- An upgraded tool-swiping experience
- A vastly improved chatbot
- A mobile app already live on Android (with iOS coming soon)
With over 2,000 tool partnerships secured, zero paid marketing, and exponential growth in its newsletter and social channels, Nebula is quickly becoming the infrastructure for the AI boom.
The future vision, now supercharged by Bansal’s product-first mindset, is to turn Nebula from a discovery tool into a full-stack ecosystem:
Discover. Compare. Pay. Integrate. Manage. All in one platform.
“We’re not just building a search engine,” says Nunez. “We’re building the control panel for the AI economy.”
With two Gen-Z founders at the helm, and a roadmap that keeps getting sharper, Nebula AI isn’t just catching up with the AI wave. It’s organizing it.
