AI startup Rocket offers vibe McKinsey-style reports at a fraction of the cost
Summary
Indian startup Rocket has launched Rocket 1.0, a platform designed to assist users in deciding what to build by generating consulting-style product strategy documents. The platform integrates research, product building, and competitive intelligence, producing detailed reports that include pricing, unit economics, and go-to-market recommendations. Co-founder and CEO Vishal Virani highlights that while AI has made coding accessible, the strategic decision of 'what to build' remains a challenge. Rocket's output resembles traditional consulting reports, synthesizing data from over 1,000 sources, including Meta's ad libraries and Similarweb's API. While the analysis may require user validation, the platform offers human support. Subscription plans range from $25 to $350 per month, with higher tiers providing "McKinsey-grade" reports as a cost-effective alternative to traditional consulting. Rocket has also secured $15 million in seed funding and boasts over 1.5 million users globally.
