Founder and Editor, Startup Glossary
Anup Kumar Yadav is the founder and editor of Startup Glossary, where he researches and explains terminology used across startups, SaaS, funding, artificial intelligence, marketing, growth, and founder conversations.
His focus is practical clarity: defining a term in plain language, showing how it is used, and connecting it to the related ideas a reader is likely to encounter next. That approach is especially useful for metrics and funding terms, where a short dictionary definition can leave out the part that actually matters in practice.
What he covers
Coverage includes startup fundamentals, founder terminology, SaaS metrics, customer economics, fundraising concepts, growth terminology, and AI terms that are becoming part of everyday startup product discussions.
Related work
Anup also works on StartupOrigins, which publishes detailed stories about how companies started, how founders made early decisions, how funding developed, and what other entrepreneurs can learn from those journeys. Startup Glossary supports that work by providing clear explanations of the terminology that appears in those stories.
Editorial approach
Definitions are checked against reliable primary or established industry sources when the subject calls for it. Examples are chosen to make the concept easier to understand, and articles are updated when terminology or common practice changes.
