I build consumer apps. Ten years, three startups, one exit. Made a few things that went viral.
Things I've made
Kept — an app that organizes screenshots on your phone and resurfaces the good things you save | built with Devesh
iknowaspot — an illustrated guide to Lodhi Garden | built with Srijan
Muzify — a product where you are shazam. played ~5 million times
[unnamed] — Currently building an AI project that lets others talk to your git and linkedin
Linklee (2024) — a link you can redirect anywhere for free
Pager (2023) — find out when someone is free, without texting them
more experiments → (Turf, Vouch, tldrmail, Reko, Stak, and others)
Before that
Bantr (2021–22) — spent two years and 12+ iterations building a social app for football fans with Rishabh. Learned how to design for social graphs and network effects the hard way. Shut it down when we ran out of runway.
CEO, Resolver India (2017–19) — built and ran Resolver's India consumer product. 0 to 170k users in a year, three enterprise customers, a team of ten.
Expertily (2014–17) — a tool to hire lawyers in India. Took it to six-figure revenue with a team of four. Acquired by Resolver (UK). Started it in my last year of law school.
A few things about me
Born and based in India. Ex-founder with product chops. I like consumer tech and apps that bring people together. Once built a tool for lawyers that got recognised by — and got API access from — the Supreme Court of India.
