02 / Projects & Case Studies
Daily Trigger AI
Context & Problem
The explosion of AI tools makes it impossible for developers and SaaS operators to discover high-quality, vetted tools that solve real operational bottlenecks without wasting hours of research.
Strategy & Execution
Designed and engineered a minimalist, lightning-fast directory application in React 18 and Vite. Vetted, curated, and categorized 103+ tools across 40 distinct categories, featuring dynamic search, filtering, and responsive performance.
Impact & Value
Created a single source of truth for daily/weekly AI tool curation. Enabled users to discover target tools in under 5 seconds, resulting in high retention and live production utility deployed at dailytriggerai.space.
Renewloop: Automated Follow-Up Platform
Context & Problem
Manual follow-ups for renewals, collections, and appointments are labor-intensive, error-prone, and lead to massive revenue leakage. Teams struggle to coordinate across calls and text channels to resolve time-sensitive customer actions.
Strategy & Execution
Engineered an automated SaaS platform in React and Node.js/Express. Designed a day-offset scheduler (Day -7, Day 0, Day +3) executing every 60 seconds. Integrated MyOperator's voice stack for Objections Handling Voice AI and WhatsApp Business API for interactive conversational chat follow-ups.
Impact & Value
Currently in its testing phase, the system is validated in an internal pilot and is being pilot-tested in live production with MyOperator's voice + chat stack. This eliminates manual dialing, standardizes contact-level tracking, and validates the core SaaS workflow.
AI-Powered Onboarding System for SMB
Context & Problem
SMB clients took 14 days to configure call telephony flows, causing 30-35% early-stage churn. Repeated basic technical questions consumed customer success resources, preventing proactive engagement and renewal optimization.
Strategy & Execution
Designed a self-guided in-app and WhatsApp API onboarding coach. Connected setup modules directly to core cloud telephony APIs to automate workspace configuration. Drafted responsive triggers for drop-off steps (IVR upload, call routing checks).
Impact & Value
Cut time-to-value from 14 days to 5.6 days. Lifted onboarding NPS from 6.2 to 8.9. Allowed MyOperator to scale to 200+ client workspaces monthly with no additional support or customer success hires.
Predictive Customer Health Scoring
Context & Problem
CSMs managed accounts reactively, responding to cancellations rather than predictive risks. No centralized data unified telemetry (license usage, support ticket backlog, billing) into a single score.
Strategy & Execution
Engineered an automated customer health model in Zoho CRM and Zoho Analytics. Weighted product adoption, support tickets, and renewal dates into color-coded bands. Configured Slack alerts to notify CSMs 30 days prior to potential escalations.
Impact & Value
Secured over ₹30M in ARR by early interventions. Reduced portfolio churn rate by 12% inside the first two quarters. Standardized portfolio health reports for leadership reviews.
WhatsApp Business API Automation
Context & Problem
Inbound customer queries were manually assigned, causing delays and scaling bottlenecks. The customer support division faced hiring five additional agents to maintain response times during query surges.
Strategy & Execution
Spearheaded the integration of WhatsApp Business API with internal CRM databases. Built conversational qualification bots to answer FAQs, routing high-value billing and complex telephony issues directly to agents.
Impact & Value
Automated 10,000+ chats monthly, lifting agent efficiency by 40%. Captured ₹6.5M in expansion upgrades through interactive renewal checkout cards sent directly inside WhatsApp chats.

05 / Background
My early training in international hotel management at the University of West London and IIHM instilled a rigorous foundation in operational execution, empathy, and guest experience at scale. I translated this hospitality DNA into B2B SaaS, realizing that churn mitigation, user adoption, and customer success are ultimately built on high-fidelity operational systems and structured workflows. Combining design thinking with technical logic, I bridge the gap between complex engineering architectures and proactive revenue retention.
