Principal PM · Enterprise AI · Evaluation & trust
I build systems that have to earn trust — and tools that show how.
Fourteen years across AI security, data platforms, and venture building, working one question from every side: how do you make intelligent systems worthy of the trust you put in them? Start with something you can use.

rattl — a revenue floor a credit committee can act on
An EV charging site can run exactly as modelled and still be declined, because nobody will state in writing what the downside looks like. rattl contracts that downside as a number.
The hard part was never forecasting revenue — plenty of tools do that. It is being willing to put a figure in writing that you would have to pay against, and to withdraw it when the evidence turns. That single constraint decides the whole product.
Design-partner stage, and said plainly on the site: sites are scored free of charge to build a calibration record, and no insurance instrument exists yet — writing a real floor needs a licensed carrier and one is not signed.

Things you can actually use
Not case studies — running artifacts. Each one is a decision I had to make, made usable by anyone facing the same one.
Interactive · agentic evaluation
When should an agent be allowed to act?
A live sandbox for the call every team shipping an autonomous agent makes by feel: at what quality does it earn the right to act without a human in the loop?

Agstya.charge — where should the next charger go?
A charge-siting intelligence prototype: a real map, an ROI model, a price engine — and an honest note on exactly what’s modelled and what’s fake.

Hemma — the home log that reprices your risk
A 2024 concept rebuilt: a home-repairs log that turns maintenance history into a live insurance-risk signal — with what would kill it, and the cheapest way to find out.

Product strategy, worked end to end
Two product-strategy studies — market, users, a falsifiable thesis, and a roadmap. The thinking, worked end to end.
