New 3rd place at CodeAxis · incubation & PPO offer

I build software that
thinks before it ships.

I'm Tanay, a Computer Engineering student at Sardar Patel Institute of Technology, Mumbai. I like turning messy real-world problems into working products: AI checks for brand content, marketplaces for farmers, and machine-learning ideas that started as a hunch.

Projects

Things I've designed, built and shipped, with honest labels on what's a working product and what's still an idea.

Team leader · Live product

Canon

An AI brand-governance platform that checks every draft, PDF and image against a brand's approved rules and facts before it's published, and proves what was approved.

  • Rule engine plus validated AI review: exact checks for prices, claims and disclaimers, and Gemini for tone, with every AI finding checked before it's shown
  • Computer vision on images: reads text in artwork, measures WCAG contrast and detects retired logos with multi-scale edge matching in NumPy
  • Signed approvals: HMAC-signed seals and a public page that shows whether content was approved, edited after approval, or never approved
  • Risk-based routing to fast, standard and legal review lanes, plus a governance dashboard

FarmLink AI

Smart India Hackathon 2026 · Prototype

An AI-powered agricultural marketplace connecting farmers with verified buyers, with price prediction, buyer matching, logistics coordination and payment tracking. I designed the UI/UX flows and presented it at SIH 2026.

AI Waste Sorting

Concept · Computer vision + ML

A system that uses computer vision and machine learning to recognise waste on a line and route it to the right bin, so segregation happens automatically instead of by hand.

Auto Light Switch

Hardware · Electronics

A circuit design that senses ambient light and switches lights on at dusk and off at dawn, with no manual switching and no wasted power during the day.

Currently learning: machine learning. I've covered the fundamentals and I'm applying them to projects like the waste-sorting system. Canon's image checks were my first taste of computer vision in production.

Let's talk

Have a problem worth building for?

I'm open to internships, hackathon teams and interesting projects, especially in AI and backend engineering.

Off the keyboard, I follow markets: Indian stocks, crypto and mutual funds.
