Builder. Founder.
Systems brain.

I am a builder from Lucknow who wandered into electrical engineering at IIT Roorkee and never stopped collecting systems to understand.

I like messy, ambitious problems: industrial energy, local-first AI, games, agent infrastructure, and whatever useful rabbit hole appears next.

I explain things too much because I care whether the other person can see the whole machine—not just the shiny button.

The best work usually begins with curiosity, a whiteboard, and someone willing to say “this might be ridiculous, but…”

Currently building companies, tools, and a suspicious number of diagrams.

  • I will diagram the whole system before writing hello world.
  • I ask annoying questions early so the expensive mistakes stay cheap.
  • I care about the business, the user, and the weird edge case in equal measure.
  • Give me an unfamiliar domain and a good reason to learn it. I will figure it out.

( Optional side quest )

Builder. Founder.
Systems brain.

A tiny hill-climb game where the controls are simple and gravity has opinions.

Completely optional. Your scroll is safe; the hill only starts when you ask.

( Founder timeline )

Four wrong turns. One sharper founder.

Stamped did not arrive fully formed. It earned its current shape through honest experiments and quick goodbyes.

01v1

Media authenticity

Started with cryptographic proof that media was real. Cool tech. Wrong market.

02v2

B2B pivot

Same stack, different buyer. Still solving a problem people weren't paying for yet.

03v3

YC Bangalore

Pressure cooker. Learned how fast a story has to land, and how fast to kill it.

04v4

Insurance infra

Deep domain, real pain. Still not the wedge. Signal said no.

Kill → Energy

Killed the drafts. Cleared the path for Stamped Energy. Speed of kills is the skill.

Not every version deserved to live. Every version deserved to teach us something.

( Buried · Flip )

The idea graveyard

A respectful burial for versions that taught me something. Tap a stone; flowers remain optional.

Please touch the exhibits

A tiny corner for experiments that do not need a pitch deck. Drag them. Click them. They gossip.

Warming up the toys…

Say hi

Bring me a strange problem.

Building a company, assembling an ambitious team, or simply obsessed with an interesting idea? I would genuinely like to hear about it.

Questionable evidence

Yes, these exist. No, you can't zoom in.
