Portrait of Rishi Srivastav

About

Builder. Creator. Problem solver.

I'm Rishi — an AI-assisted digital product builder. I take an idea and carry it all the way to a deployed product: the interface, the backend, the model pipeline, the copy and the art direction.

In practice that means full-stack applications where AI does real work inside the flow — career mapping in Kramo, mentoring and mock interviews in Drona, a grounded research-to-draft pipeline in X-Writer — plus web experiences like Nyxra and Shiva where the point is how it feels to move through them.

Working with AI as a collaborator is what makes that range possible. It compresses the distance between an idea and a working version, so more ideas actually get to exist.

How I work

Start from the decision, not the feature

Every product here began with a question a person actually needs answered. The feature list came after — which is why Kramo returns a career map instead of a resume score.

AI where it earns its place

Models do the work they are genuinely good at: reading, synthesising, drafting. Everything deterministic — scoring, analytics, state, validation — is written as code, so behaviour stays predictable and costs stay flat.

Ship it live, then keep going

A build isn't finished until it's deployed with real auth, a real database and real error states. Each project on this site is open in a browser right now.

Design is part of the product

I art-direct my own work — type, colour, motion and imagery — and that same visual practice runs as a studio output on its own.
