She then served as entrepreneur-in-residence at Battery Ventures. In 2013, she founded Lumoid, a rental/try-before-you-buy service for gadgets such as camera gear and headphones.

The Good Time Show and podcasts 
In December 2020, Ramamurthy and her husband, Sriram Krishnan, launched the Good Time Show, which began as a Clubhouse talk show. They describe it as "focuse[d] on organic conversations on anything from startups to venture capitalism and cryptocurrencies." An early appearance by Elon Musk on The Good Time Show was described as the first show that "broke Clubhouse" by rapidly exceeding the limit of 5,000 simultaneous users. The desire to interact with a larger community led to a variety of later innovations to allow streaming and replaying of Clubhouse chats. On that episode, Elon Musk grilled Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev regarding the GameStop trading controversy. As of July, 2021, the show had over 175,000 subscribers. During Krishnan's interview with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Zuckerberg described augmented and virtual reality as the future of work, alluding to the then-unannounced Meta concept. Additional guests have included Tony Hawk, Diane von Furstenberg, Sonam Kapoor Ahuja, Kanye West, and MrBeast. In 2022, WME signed Ramamurthy and Krishnan for film and TV development projects, as well as other publishing and podcasting ventures. In 2022, the Good Time Show moved to YouTube. Ramamurthy's departure was cited as a major blow to Clubhouse. It then evolved to a podcasting format under the name The Aarthi and Sriram Show, with both audio and video content. The Hollywood Reporter reported that the podcast had received more than 1 million downloads by early 2023. Other roles
