Taking on a few select projects

I build AI systems that work outside the demo.

I'm Alok, a solution architect with 8+ years in software delivery. Lately that means agents, RAG and document pipelines. On the side, I'm launching small AI products one by one.

Work

What I do day to day

01

Agents

Agents that call tools, check their own results, and pass the job to a person when they aren't sure.

02

RAG

Hybrid search with reranking, answers that cite the source page, and permissions checked at retrieval rather than in the prompt.

03

Documents

OCR and classification that turn PDFs, scans and handwritten pages into clean structured data.

04

Voice

Voice agents so ops teams can ask for status or start a workflow by talking.

05

Architecture

Design reviews, RFP responses, breakdowns and estimates that turn vague asks into a plan.

06

Full stack

React and Next.js up front, Python, FastAPI and Node behind it, on AWS or GCP with Terraform.

AIResetPerks.com Up next

A public tracker for OpenAI, Anthropic, Grok and OpenCode. It follows usage resets, model launches, credits and access programs so you don't have to watch five feeds. No login. Get updates by email, right away or weekly.

AI sorts and drafts the updates. I approve every post and every email myself.

  • Usage resets: history, plus predictions that are labeled as predictions
  • Features and models: launches and rollouts as they happen
  • Credits and programs: who qualifies and how to claim
  • Daily challenges: running update series

System Design Simulator Building

Draw an architecture, run traffic through it, see the cost, then break things on purpose.

Social Media Growth Building

Research, drafts and analytics for LinkedIn and X. I still post everything by hand.

Journey

From full stack to AI architecture

Jun 2022 to now

Solution Architect

I run design on client projects, from first discovery call to architecture, tech choices, estimates and delivery. Most of the build is AI platforms on FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Temporal and LLM APIs. I'm the technical contact for clients in Europe and the US, and I mentor the developers on the team.

Apr 2018 to Jun 2022

Lead, Full Stack Developer

I led full-stack work on a SaaS product: REST and federated GraphQL APIs, gRPC services, payment and messaging integrations, and Docker with CI/CD on AWS. I also did code reviews and helped junior developers get unstuck.

2014 to 2018

B.E. Computer Science and Engineering

India.
