Shomik Ghosh runs Software Snack Bites, his own enterprise-software-focused Substack and podcast with 12,000+ subscribers, positioning himself as a public thinker on enterprise and AI trends rather than just a behind-the-scenes VC. He bridges early-stage enterprise investing with public-equities-style analysis, appearing on podcasts to discuss detailed theses on public market companies like Kelly Partners Group—a crossover that's relatively uncommon for seed-stage dev-tools investors.
What they've been talking about across their social media accounts

- Analyzes public market trends to forecast private market opportunities, frequently drawing comparisons between semiconductor performance and software indices. He closely watches mega-cap behaviors, such as predicting a resurgence for Amazon based on its integration of Anthropic and AWS developer mindshare, suggesting he values founders who understand how public market shifts impact valuation multiples.
- Bullish on the practical application and infrastructure of Generative AI, specifically favoring Anthropic and Claude for their coding and productivity benefits over competitors like ChatGPT. He tracks the ripple effects of AI demand, from the revenue ramps of model providers to the massive capital expenditure requirements falling on chip manufacturers like TSMC and energy providers.
- Identifies Physical AI and the intersection of software with real-world assets as a major underappreciated sector. He expresses strong optimism for innovation in real assets and points to public companies like Samsara as undervalued indicators of this trend, hinting at a thesis that moves beyond pure software into industrial and physical applications.
- Scrutinizes SaaS business fundamentals with a focus on efficient growth and durability rather than growth at all costs. He frequently dissects investor decks from firms like Avenir to highlight high-performing companies such as Datadog and Cloudflare that manage to balance growth with free cash flow, contrasting them against legacy players that are relying on acquisitions to mask slowing innovation.
