I'm Prasad Vaidya, a technical architect with experience designing and building software systems across product and engineering teams.

My current interests are AI-enabled products, developer productivity, personal knowledge systems, SaaS architecture, and independent product building.

Outside software, I'm focused on health transformation, guitar, filmmaking, and exploring how disciplined personal systems can create more creative freedom.

This website is where I document what I'm building, learning, testing, and thinking about.
