Everyone's "doing AI." Very few can actually show you what shipped, what got stuck six months into a pilot, and why.

Reality Check is a 3-city series by noClue โ€” Delhi, Bangalore, and Pune built to close that gap. No two cities run the same show. Each one is curated around what that city's builders and enterprise community actually need to see: real builds, honest enterprise stories, and real engineering lessons on scale. No panels for the sake of panels. No pitch judging. No VC scorecards. Just the people doing the work, being honest about it.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ Bangalore โ€” Shipped Live
A builder showcase. Curated builders demo what they've actually shipped live, unscripted, running on their own laptop, not a slide deck. After each demo, the floor opens up for real questions: what broke, what surprised them, what they'd do differently.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ Delhi โ€” Pilot to Product
The enterprise reality check. Real AI adoption stories โ€” what shipped, what's still stuck in pilot, and why told by the people who actually lived through it, not a polished case study.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ Pune โ€” Breaking Point
Build vs. Scale. What breaks going from 10 users to 10,000, and how builders actually solved it real technical war stories, not a surface-level overview.

What to expect

  • Live builder demos and real talks no slides-only sessions. If it can't be shown running or told straight, it doesn't get a slot.
  • A room of builders, engineers, founders, and enterprise product leads who ask real questions, not softball ones.
  • Space between sessions to actually talk to the people whose work you found interesting.

Who this is for

  • Builders and engineers who've shipped something a product, a tool, an internal system and want real feedback from people who'd actually use it.
  • Enterprise product and engineering leads scouting for what's actually working outside their own org.
  • Founders deciding what to build next, looking for signal on what's already working for others.

Selection note

This isn't open registration. Every city is curated attendees and speakers are selected based on what they've actually built, shipped, or lived through, not on interest alone. Apply through the link above and pick your city.
