LoadTrack — Logistics Operations Platform (March 2026) Live: https://loadtrack-frontend.vercel.app/login MCP Server: https://loadtrack-production.up.railway.app/mcp Screenshots: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1wqddUX4XKQWrBfUomY2DGScee6VRY3Jn
Built an end-to-end logistics operations tool for a manufacturing plant. Ground workers log truck movements and fulfillment status via a Telegram bot. The owner gets a live analytics dashboard and daily reports. Built an MCP server connected to Claude — so the owner can ask natural language questions against live operational data and have Claude draft customer status updates directly. Went from idea to deployed product over a weekend. 100% adoption by ~50 ground workers and security guards. Turnaround time dropped from 12 hours to 6.
Cloud Migration of MKSPL (2026) Website: https://www.maakudargarhi.com/
Migrated an enterprise of ~1000 workforce to AWS private cloud. Covered Sophos firewall setup, site-to-site VPN peering, VPC topology, BGP routing across multiple private networks, bandwidth analysis, private name servers and DNS, secure EC2/EBS. Configured development and testing access for their developers using SSH tunnels and port forwarding.
RapidRunway Website: www.rapidrunway.com Screenshots: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/14kJ0hWglndp3HVQCWKnlcLwAEO9Z-_pZ
AI tool for analysing fashion trends and helping designers with end-to-end workflows — sketching, fabric selection, technical documentation. Joined as an early contributor and worked on backend, OAuth auth, frontend, web scrapers, and Gemini prompting layer. The team has since continued independently.
MemoirStreet (2020) Reference images: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1B03Z3gyBVHOWY9JZ1uKlpH8tN3uZt9Bz
Built during COVID for students missing their farewells. Facebook-style wall and feed — groups could post pictures, make comments, with the output converted into a scrapbook. Built with my brother (he handled sales, I handled tech). Wound down due to lack of uptake from colleges.

Led development of the website and Android app for IIT BHU's annual techno-management festival (~10,000 participants). Built Neo4j-backed social features — friend connections via Facebook sign-in, an activity feed, and an RFID-powered photobooth that photographed users and posted to their Facebook walls on card swipe. Platform drove a ~40% increase in registrations.
Games (2021) Prototyped a Unity-based game for virtual dating in the metaverse. Built a functional virtual environment; paused to focus on other work.
- Trained a reinforcement learning model for Amazon's internal DeepRacer championship — designed the reward function and tuned training to optimise racing line and speed. Deployed on a physical autonomous vehicle. Finished first in Round 1.
