Why I Changed the Name from BizTracker to BizKhata โ€” A New Chapter Begins ๐Ÿš€

Why I Changed the Name from BizTracker to BizKhata โ€” A New Chapter Begins ๐Ÿš€

Hey Devs ๐Ÿ‘‹

Iโ€™m Prasoon, a 16-year-old developer and the solo founder behind what started as BizTracker โ€” a simple SaaS project to help small businesses track their activities.

Today, I want to share why I changed the name from BizTracker to BizKhata, whatโ€™s next for the project, and how weโ€™re collaborating with another awesome startup to take things to the next level.


๐Ÿง  Why the Name Change?

When I launched BizTracker, the name made sense. It was short, descriptive, and felt right at the time.

But over time, I realized a few things:

  • The name โ€œBizTrackerโ€ is used by a lot of tools already.
  • It didnโ€™t reflect the Indian identity I wanted for the platform.

So I rebranded it to BizKhata โ€” a name that speaks more to its roots.

What Does โ€œBizKhataโ€ Mean?

In Hindi, โ€œKhataโ€ means a ledger โ€” the traditional notebook used by Indian shopkeepers to track daily sales, customer entries, and credits.

So, BizKhata = Track Your Biz, The Indian Way ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ

Itโ€™s not just a name change โ€” itโ€™s a shift in vision and culture.


๐Ÿค Collaborating with AquaScript

Iโ€™m super excited to announce that weโ€™ve started collaborating with AquaScript, a startup that provides Fake APIs for developers โ€” perfect for prototyping, testing, and building demos.

AquaScript is helping us design a brand new landing page for BizKhata โ€” with a fresh, modern look to reflect the new brand.

Iโ€™m really grateful for their contribution to this project. This is just the beginning of more collaboration to come.


๐Ÿšง Site Is Temporarily Closed

Weโ€™re currently upgrading things under the hood, so the old BizTracker site is temporarily closed.

But the new version of BizKhata is live here:

Go check it out โ€” and let us know what you think!


๐Ÿ™ Thanks for the Support

Building something meaningful at 16 isnโ€™t easy โ€” but itโ€™s exciting. And every piece of feedback, encouragement, or suggestion means a lot.

Thank you for being a part of this journey.

And shoutout to AquaScript once again โ€” letโ€™s keep building ๐Ÿš€
