I build my own products.I take on a few founders a year.I build theirs the same way.

Why one person

Most founders manage a developer, a designer, and a marketer. The translation between them is where products die.

One person holds all three here. Fewer meetings, no handoff loss, one accountable name on the whole outcome.

I'd rather own the whole outcome.

I started in 2017 running cameras and live streams for the Swaminarayan temple in Vadodara. Nine years on I still head its technical production: daily broadcasts, festival multi-cam, and in July 2022 the 27-hour Guinness World Record chant, where my recording and stream were the evidence.

I studied computer engineering at GTU, shipped iOS at Par Solution and then Yaapt in Bengaluru, sat in Apple's developer sessions there, and in 2024 went indie. The apps paid: over $100,000 from the App Store, the first of it at twenty.

In 2025 I set up Harimurti Technologies. Now I ship my own products and take a few founders a year through the same process: product, brand, growth, one name on the outcome.
