About

I’m a software engineer and MS CS student who likes turning real problems into focused, shippable tools. My work spans AI/ML (LLM-assisted FMEA, medical imaging, recommendation systems), backend/data pipelines, and browser/dev productivity tools. I enjoy local-first designs, simple UX and systems that behave well in production. On Product Hunt you’ll mostly see small, opinionated projects that try to remove friction for developers and knowledge workers. Always happy to connect with people building in similar spaces.

How user feedback has helped BrainFeed

BrainFeed started as part of my Honors thesis at college as 'ExpoDive ', where you could simply scroll through random ideas - nothing else.

Ever since, Aasrith and I have been continuously iterating based on implicit and explicit user feedback. Here is how the product evolved into what it is today:

  • From Random to Intentional: Users wanted to scroll through content they actually cared about, so we introduced Learning Goals, which has now become a core product feature.

  • Deep Exploration: Those goals can now branch out into a Goal Tree, allowing you to naturally map out and explore complex topics.

  • Rich Visuals: We moved away from a text-only approach and added Images to make the feed highly engaging.

  • Bring Your Own Content: You can now share external media like YouTube videos, articles, and PDFs directly into BrainFeed to consume them during your spare time.

  • Frictionless Onboarding: We completely changed the first-time experience so new users never miss out on powerful core features.
