Capital One recently launched the first-of-its-kind mentorship with its innovation center, The Garage. Srishti Goel, the founder and CEO of Doggo, was selected to receive the consultations.

The mentorship kicked off December 7^th at The Garage where Goel met with her coaches to map out a plan to accelerate Goel’s company through the product development lifecycle. The coaches alongside Goel will use customer-centric, lean principles to experiment and learn from Doggo customers through feedback.

“I am so thrilled to have this opportunity to work with The Capital One Garage and Dallas Entrepreneur Center teams to take Doggo to the next level with agile experimentation,” said Goel.

Goel was inspired to start Doggo while working with rescue shelters in the area and saw a need. In order to help prevent dogs from being returned to the shelter every year for being too difficult, Doggo aims to use artificial intelligence (AI) to help owners train their dog through 10-minute sessions every day. Doggo is a phone app that uses adaptive learning to make puppy training affordable, accessible and convenient.

Capital One announced the Capital One Garage coaching program at its WEDallas Bootcamp on November 14^th at The Dallas Entrepreneur Center (The DEC).
