Hi, I'm Ishita 👋

AI Product Leader · Exited Founder · Building agentic systems with evals & safety at the core

  • I lead product for AI systems that have to work in the real world — agentic platforms, retrieval pipelines, eval frameworks, and the safety infrastructure that keeps them reliable and auditable at scale.

  • I'm an AI-native product leader who works hands-on with prompts, retrieval, and evals alongside my engineering partners — fast enough to prototype, deep enough to make sharp tradeoffs, careful about the line between product and engineering. I am passionate about building products that can work reliably in messy real-life situations and not just as impressive demos.

  • I have built this repositary to showcase some of the products and projects that I have or am currently working on. I have launched a couple of them comercially and use the rest to automate certain parts of my life. These are open source to help my fellow enthusiasts download, edit and use them to best fit their needs.


What I'm working on now
