About

I am creating an open-source plugin called Unlogged. Developers can replay production traffic on their local machines and know if they are breaking something on prod. Check unlogged.io. Earlier, I built an vernacular speech translation engine for India, that was acquired by Airtel.

I am building 100x, a no-code platform that empowers users to create, share, and monetize AI agents effortlessly. The platform enables individuals and businesses to automate repetitive tasks, streamline workflows, and enhance productivity using AI-driven automation—without writing a single line of code.
With 100x, users can:
✅ Create AI Agents – Design intelligent automation workflows for various use cases, from recruiting and marketing to finance and e-commerce, using a simple drag-and-drop interface.
✅ Share & Publish – Make AI agents publicly available or keep them private for internal use, fostering collaboration and innovation.
✅ Monetize – Earn revenue each time others use or subscribe to your AI-powered automation, making 100x a marketplace for AI-driven productivity tools.
Our goal is to democratize AI automation, allowing non-technical users to harness the power of AI while also providing developers with a platform to distribute and monetize their AI solutions. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, a freelancer, or a business professional, 100x helps you save time, reduce costs, and unlock new revenue streams through automation.

CEO & Co-Founder

Jan 2017 – Aug 2018 · 1 yr 7 mos · Bangalore

AuthMe is acquired by Airtel in September 2018.
AuthMe
AuthMe is a plug and play replacement to passwords in your apps and website. Using smartphone sensor data, AuthMe makes human behaviour their password.
Why?
End users tend to keep same passwords everywhere. Even if an un-related application gets hacked, it puts other applications at risk despite following best security practices. Human habits and nature of password, put user identity at risk. With AuthMe, applications can make user behaviour their password, which keeps evolving and is extremely hard to hack into.
Callup AI
Callup AI helps businesses answer repeat customer questions on email, chat and phone calls. Voice integration (Demo here), unsupervised learning, built for vernacular languages and less integration time are few points that separate us from rest of the chatbots.
Fintech OCR
We have an end to end OCR pipeline built for Indian financial documents. Used for processing KYC docs, bank/credit card/loan statements, mark sheets, and can be customised to process known formats of other documents. It saves 90% manual efforts.
