Mayank Jaiswal

Mayank Jaiswal founded Weddingkart to fix a problem Indian weddings have quietly accepted for decades: guest management is chaos. Paper lists, scattered WhatsApp groups, missed RSVPs, unclear headcounts for the caterer, and an event manager drowning in follow-ups the week of the wedding. Weddingkart turns all of that into a single WhatsApp-native workflow — invites, RSVPs, travel and ID collection, real-time updates — so couples and their planners actually know what’s going on.

Before Weddingkart, Mayank spent over a decade building consumer internet products in India. At Nykaa he was named the company’s first Distinguished Engineer — its highest individual-contributor role — after leading engineering there as Director. He drove architecture on the Retina platform team and led the Nysaa UAE migration off Shopify onto Nykaa’s infrastructure. Earlier in his career he was part of the engineering team at Saavn during its growth years. He brings that operational, at-scale thinking into an industry that is still, for the most part, run on spreadsheets.

He lives in Gurugram with his wife Sushmita and their son Vigya.
