About

Builder-first. Outcome-obsessed.

With over 17 years of industry experience and 12+ years dedicated to the AI startup ecosystem, my focus is on the 0-to-1 journey. I co-founded Kint.io (acqui-hired by Swiggy) and transformed Curl Hg's AI stack, leading to Sara CF's acquisition.

I help founders and enterprise leaders move past the GenAI hype to build production-ready assets that drive measurable business impact. Through Tessera AI Studio, I bring a builder's perspective to every engagement — grounded in what actually works.

What We Do

Five ways to work together.

Each service works independently. They compound when combined.

01

0→1 AI Strategy

Opportunity audit → executable 90-day roadmap → business case with quantified ROI. For leadership teams deciding where AI actually moves the needle.

02

GenAI Production

Domain-specific RAG, agentic workflows, Text2SQL, document intelligence. Production-grade systems deployed into your stack — designed for adoption, not demo day.

03

AI Hiring

Hiring frameworks, interview rubrics, candidate evaluation for AI engineering and leadership roles. Find and assess the right people to build your AI capability.

04

Fundraising AI Strategy

Co-create AI strategy decks for investor conversations. Architecture narratives, defensibility framing, roadmap sequencing that holds up under technical diligence.

05

Automation Wedges

Find the one workflow where AI delivers immediate ROI. Observe real work → rapid prototype → deploy → measure adoption. 2–6 weeks per wedge.

How We Work

Simple. Grounded. Outcome-driven.

Discovery

30-minute call. You tell us what's broken, stuck, or unbuilt. No pitch, no slides.

Scoping

One-page proposal in 2–3 days. Problem, approach, deliverables, timeline, fee.

Build

We start with real workflows. Then design. Then ship. Production-grade, not prototype-grade.

Transfer

Working output, documentation, handover. Your team sustains it, not us.

Ready to build AI that sticks?

No pitch deck. No 12-week discovery phase. Just a conversation about what you're trying to solve.
