Founding Engineer @ Paygent | Building the Monetization Infrastructure for AI-Agent Companies
About
I'm Nihal. Software engineer, product thinker, builder. I've shipped apps that crossed 1M+ downloads, designed systems that process 5M+ of transactions a day, and obsessed over every metric that makes products stick, load times, retention, crash rates, all of it. Right now, I'm working on something that the AI industry desperately needs but hasn't figured out yet. At Paygent, I'm building the cost visibility and billing platform for AI agents and voice agents. As companies race to deploy AI, nobody really knows what their agents cost in real time, at scale, broken down by usage. I'm building the layer that answers that, the financial backbone every AI first company will eventually need. If you're building something ambitious in AI infrastructure, developer tools, or B2B SaaS, I'd love to connect. 📩 nihalkumar514@gmail.com
