Army of One / Editorial approach

Useful, honest
field notes.

Army of One was started by Shlok Kapoor after months building Altys solo. These articles give other founders practical ways to think through the work. They do not claim to be Shlok’s personal experiences unless he has supplied that experience.

Who writes these articles

The byline “Army of One Editorial” identifies this publication, not a claim that we employ a team of subject-matter experts. The launch collection was researched, drafted and checked with AI assistance at Shlok’s request. Shlok is the founder of the community. We do not present him as a clinician, lawyer or financial adviser.

Sources and judgment

We prefer original public sources: official product documentation, researchers, health authorities and first-party founder resources. Each field note links its sources, including near the claims they support. A source supports a specific fact or attributed view; it does not endorse our entire article. Frameworks, checklists and startup ideas are our editorial analysis. Ideas are hypotheses to test, not verified demand or promises of success.

Examples and dates

Invented teaching examples are identified as hypothetical. We do not invent interviews, customer results, founder stories, search volumes or statistics. “2026” describes the current context, not a prediction that a market must develop in a particular way. Publication and source-check dates are shown separately from historical source dates. We update a date only when the article changes meaningfully.

Wellbeing and professional advice

Wellbeing articles discuss work design and peer support. They do not diagnose, prescribe treatment or replace qualified care. Persistent distress or trouble functioning deserves support from a qualified health professional. Co-founder and commercial articles help prepare questions; they are not legal agreements or personalised legal, tax or investment advice.

Corrections and contact

If a fact is wrong or a source no longer supports it, email shlok@altys.io with the article URL, the passage and your evidence. We will assess it and record substantive corrections on the affected page. Please do not send private medical details or customer data.

Artwork and community

Six original AI-assisted Indian oil-and-gouache style illustrations form the launch collection. Articles in the same topic share a painting; these are illustrations, not documentary photographs or depictions of actual members. Army of One is an early community, starting with solo tech founders in Delhi NCR. Activities mentioned as ideas are not a published event schedule.
