About

I built two careers in tech. AI turned them into one. I started as a developer, became a product designer, and now use both to take ideas from the first thought to the App Store. I’ve designed, built and launched 4 iOS apps as a solo founder. Here, I share the complete process: choosing ideas, designing experiences, building with AI, launching products and helping them find an audience. Follow if you’re a designer or indie builder who wants to expand what one person can create with AI. Portfolio: https://vedanthk.com/
