Founder, writer, and relentless question-asker exploring modern family life, tech and the tools that make us more human.
I’m Avni Patel Thompson, a serial founder and writer focused on building more human systems. At the heart of it, I’m a mama trying to make the world a bit more workable—for all of us.

Most people don’t talk about the end. But I sat down with Kat Manalac to unpack what it really feels like to walk away—from your team, your vision, and your first big bet.
“You never hear someone talk about the power of these models to help families. The idea that OpenAI's models could be powering that experience is what really sold us.”
