PERSONAL ARCHIVE


About

In the hills doing
VIPASSANA

I'm Piyush - a product & growth person, builder, and occasional writer who spends most of his time solving problems. I like small tools that do one thing well, ideas that sound silly until they work, and the quiet satisfaction of shipping something people actually use.

By day I work on products at the intersection of content, culture, and technology — mostly around growth, automation, and getting things from 0 to 1. By night I run experiments, some serious and some deliberately absurd, to understand how attention moves across the modern web.

This page is a slow, hand-tended archive rather than a portfolio. No newsletter pop-up and nothing to sell - just notes on the work, kept in one place.

Projects

Jai Hanuman App [ live ]

A daily practice app for the Hanuman Chalisa and naam jap, painted in Indian folk art. Its voice follows you: the line you're reciting lights up and the page turns by itself, and saying “Ram” moves the jap bead. Built in 10 days with Denzil for the Bolna voice-AI Buildathon; I owned the product, design and pitch.

43 verses followed by voice · jap counted on the phone · 11 design versions in 10 days · free, no login

Jai Hanuman intro screen: a folk-art painting of Hanuman leaping, with the line Be present in every verse
// Be present in every verse.
Recite mode: the verse being recited is highlighted, the current word underlined, with the listening pill below
// Recite: the line lights up as you speak
Naam jap: a ring of 108 beads at 31, counting the chant Ram Ram by voice
// Jap: say Ram, the bead moves
