Investing early, as a builder.
I invest my own capital through Rajshakha Capital, usually early, in technical founders. Because I build software every day, I can help with the parts that decide whether a company ships: product, engineering, infrastructure and launch.
Focus
Applied AI
AI that does real work inside a business: agents, copilots and pipelines with measurable outcomes.
Developer infrastructure
Tools, platforms and APIs that make other engineers faster.
Financial technology
Payments, ledgers and the plumbing underneath money moving online.
Digital assets & crypto
Protocols and products with real users and real usage, not just a token.
Mobile & consumer
Native apps people open every day.
Connected hardware
Devices where software is the differentiator.
What I bring
- Hands-on help with architecture, AI and mobile from someone who ships them
- Fast, technical diligence: one conversation, not ten
- Introductions across the Rajshakha portfolio
- Patience: I'm not optimising for the next round's mark-up
