I build companies.
Eventually, I want to build the infrastructure they run on.

About

Builder by instinct.
Thinker by habit.

I'm Bhavya, a CS student at BITS Pilani currently based in Bengaluru. I've been co-founding companies since my first year — not because I had a plan, but because I couldn't stop building things.

My deeper obsession is the layer underneath: how data centers work, how cloud platforms are architected, how the internet's physical infrastructure is actually organized. I believe India needs serious cloud infrastructure built on Indian soil. I want to understand that problem deeply before I try to work on it.

This site is where I document all of it — the companies, the learning, the thinking.

Thinking

What I'm obsessed with

I've become quietly obsessed with data centers — not as boring server rooms, but as the physical expression of how civilization chose to organize computing. Every hyperscaler has a different philosophy: AWS's cell-based architecture, Google's Jupiter network fabric, Meta's open-source hardware initiatives. These aren't just engineering choices — they're bets on what computing looks like in 20 years.

I think India is at an inflection point with cloud infrastructure. Global providers dominate, but Indian sovereignty, latency, and compliance requirements are creating a gap. I want to understand that problem deeply — the technical layer, the capital layer, the regulatory layer — before I try to work on it. This is a 10-year obsession, not a startup idea.

A running record of things I've shipped, learned, and noticed.

Jun 2025

Deployed GoSeek's marketing site at goseekus.com. Built in Next.js 14 with Supabase. Learned more about SEO in 48 hours than in an entire semester.

May 2025

Started studying AWS's internal architecture. The distinction between the Control Plane and the Data Plane changed how I think about building reliable systems.

Apr 2025

Waani went to market. First real outbound sales conversations. The gap between 'built it' and 'someone pays for it' is wider than I thought.

Mar 2025

Finished RentO — a full peer-to-peer rental marketplace with Stripe, Clerk, and Supabase. Used it to understand what a complete product actually feels like to build.

Feb 2025

Started seriously documenting my thinking about Indian cloud infrastructure. Long-term obsession officially begins.
