I am Ankit. Some people also know me as AKP. I am currently researching and solving “boring but critical” enterprise problems using SOTA AI models. I work closely with early users across PE-owned companies and profitable mid-sized businesses.

I previously founded OSlash (backed by Accel) where we built an AI-powered search assistant used by teams at Disney, Twitch, and Coda. Before that, I worked in Zoho for six years building their low-code development platform.

I have recently moved to San Francisco, to build my next startup.
