Lives inside GPT via MCP at sexypa.raashishah.com; warehouse trial-balance data in Supabase. ### Astrothunder Building Astrothunder as show-your-work Vedic astrology. Starts from a full birth chart and the exact question, then compares Parashara, Jaimini, and KP before showing what supports the answer, what conflicts, and how sure it is. Chart engines and a question compiler sit on structured classical texts ingested from scanned sources. Live at astrothunder.life. ### Admission Evaluation Agent Academic institutions process thousands of applications across months and multiple reviewers. Built an admissions QA agent used by a school to grade applicants against custom rubrics, processing 4,000+ student profiles. Standardizes enterprise-grade agents that fit into existing pipelines with RAG for data lookups, agent performance and cost telemetry (approximately fifteen cents per student), and Google ADK (Enterprise) integration. ### Pink Depot Built an iPad-first inventory and order-costing app for maker businesses (gift, fashion, cloud kitchen). Tracks materials, products with ingredient lists, client orders with auto stock deduction, vendors, and monthly profit without spreadsheets. Next.js on Vercel with Supabase auth and Postgres RLS; live at pinkdepot.raashishah.com. ### Apple HIG Open-sourced a Cursor /hig skill that designs a React or Next.js web app like an Apple designer from existing requirements, then implements navigation, lists, forms, sheets, and materials in the same run. Brand colors and fonts stay in the project; chrome grammar encodes hard FAIL gates so soft density advice cannot ship childish UI. Dogfooded on Pink Depot and admissionsdemo. ### Expression Building an animation agent for colouring sequences with 1,500 frames drawn manually by artists. Solved a PNG-to-Python parsing problem that preserves 1:1 fidelity with artist line art — compatible with any drawing software. Expression automates repetitive frame-by-frame coloring while artists retain full creative control. ### Expo Offline Navigation Web application for exhibition wayfinding that remains usable offline regardless of venue footfall or connectivity. ## Full work history ### Pluto (2021–2024) Collaborated with artists and transformed a creative studio into a product- and technology-led organization. Launched Magic Batch (MVP), Pluto (cross-platform payments driving 27% sales growth YoY; 82% retention lift via A/B-tested incentives), and Create Layer (500+ users, 5,000+ assets in ten days). Owned end-to-end product delivery across 20+ cross-functional contributors. ### OnDevice (2025) Co-founded and led product for a privacy-first type II diabetes health app using on-device inference. Led 30 interviews and 10 surveys to define privacy-by-default UX, reducing cognitive load and accelerating task completion by 42%. Defined agentic on-device flows enabling 200+ personalized user actions. Early GTM via applied AI content on Twitter and YouTube with 4,000+ pre-launch views. ### Kawa Space (2020) Delivered 6 ML use cases by recruiting a cross-functional team of 5 engineers and data scientists. Geospatial ML for agriculture, rainfall, and population density. Built an NLP-powered chatbot so non-technical users could query datasets in natural language before GPT-3 era tooling. ### Aula Education (2018–2019, UK) Doubled engineering delivery speed via agile workflow changes with VP of Product. Led customer success analytics across UK and US universities. Improved retention from 9.2% to 32% with a combined qualitative and quantitative analytics toolkit.
