About

I watched my father be a part of one the first early stage startups out of the Hyderabad ecosystem ( https://pramati.com/ ) after spending a few years in the bay area during the relational database revolution in the 90s. I decided to either join or build startups for life. After graduating from BITS-Pilani 's Hyderabad branch in 2019, I linked up with prof. Manish to start subtl.ai - an AI search company, working on transformer models for the purpose of intelligent document processing and retrieval systems. We built out IP that has been validated through private enterprise deployments at the scale of 1,500 users and has outperformed mainstream RAG implementations on 51,000+ pages of Indian Banking (RBI) regulations - https://analyticsindiamag.com/ai-news-updates/iiit-hyderabads-subtl-ai-v2-outperforms-openais-rag-solutions/ But we had to pivot multiple times because we lacked sales chops and market focus, which took us 3 pivots before we got it right. Current evolution of subtl.ai - Document agents to securely process and generate documentation as a part of critical and time sensitive operations like RFP sales and clinical trials in healthcare. If we execute decently, we will be able to save the life sciences sector billions of dollars of time lost building first drafts of documents and filled excel questionnaires. What a time to be building AI agents! Steve Jobs was right, you can't connect the dots moving forward, you can only take the path your heart desires and see the dots connecting backward. Can't wait for what's to come from here!
