On Oct-16, 2023, I had the idea of building a new kind of computer that'd let people offload all computationally expensive tasks to cloud servers without having to change applications. Something similar to a virtual desktop environment.

I built the initial prototype for developers although I soon realised video professionals are a much better audience for this product.

We managed to have 4 companies on our cloud with a small grant from WTFund. We solved most technical challenges of making virtual desktops a reality, although the economics is something we couldn't figure out.

Ripen was building apps to help GenZ become better adults. They were an up and coming spending dispora, an application targeted towards them was a dream for every advertiser.

We built the second product called Ripen Games. It let groups of people pool in money and hold each other accountable for good habits, like exercising, reading, studying...

Ripen shut down when a regulation change sniped it's business model of charging a fee on price pools.

Democratised access to statistical models of stock markets to retail traders.

This was my first experience working with seasoned professionals (Aakash, Mohit).

Post my initial work, I transitioned to a product role. Under Mohit I built their analytics engine that powered decisions until Investmint closed down in 2024.

Mohit is still my mentor to this day.

I started my career early because college was shut down in the wake of COVID-19. This is where I learned the basics of product development.

We helped small businesses gain online presence by helping them with their websites, Instagram & Youtube.

We also built consumer apps that sadly never saw the light of day.
