About
One builder.
All of it.
Booking new projects
I'm Advait — a one-person tech shop in the Bay Area. Started in 2021 fixing laptops and building gaming PCs. Over four years that grew into a full practice: custom AI, full-stack apps, APIs, and hardware.
The common thread is ownership: one builder, from first call to production. The person you email is the person doing the work — no account manager, no junior handoff.
When I'm not running this shop I'm building products at Excavated Studios — an SF AI studio I co-founded in 2026.

2026
Excavated Studios co-founded
SF AI studio — Onyx (legal AI), AI Media Detector, The Suite (4-exec orchestrator for founders).
2025
Onyx v1 + ASL Interpreter
Two solo AI research builds shipped — a fine-tuned legal-document model and a real-time sign-language-to-speech pipeline.
2024
Added custom AI/ML
First production fine-tune in Q2, first on-device vision model in Q4. The hardware background quietly paid off for inference deployment.
2023
First full-stack builds
Shifted into shipping web apps and internal tools for small businesses. Built the cadence that still runs today — weekly demos, fixed scope, fixed price.
2021
Started the shop
Began building PCs for friends and unsticking other people's family laptops. Eighty-plus builds and a couple hundred repairs later.
