Working with Aniket on the development of our AI agent chatbot has been an outstanding experience. From the very first conversation, it was clear that Aniket brings a rare combination of deep technical expertise and a strong understanding of business context.

He operates with a high degree of professionalism — meetings were always well-structured, deadlines were respected, and communication was timely and effective. What stood out even more was the quality of our discussions: Aniket consistently brought intelligent, thought-provoking perspectives that helped refine our product direction. Conversations with him weren’t just about execution — they often led to better strategic clarity.

Aniket demonstrates remarkable agency. He doesn't just wait for instructions — he proactively identifies problems, suggests innovative solutions, and takes full ownership of outcomes. This level of initiative made the collaboration seamless and added real value beyond the original scope of work.

From a technical standpoint, Aniket is extremely proficient with AI technologies. He is able to break down complex concepts and translate them into practical, business-aligned solutions. He speaks both the language of AI and the language of business — a rare and powerful combination.

I would highly recommend Aniket to anyone looking to build with AI. You’re not just getting a developer; you’re getting a strategic partner who can help shape the future of your product.
