Hi, I'm Yash Desai Building AI That Actually Ships.

A lot of AI work today stops at stitching together API calls. I focus on what sits underneath: the pipelines, the agents, the finetuned models, and the on-premise infrastructure that makes AI actually deployable for clients who can't or won't send their data to a cloud service.

Day to day, I lead a team of 6-10 developers across two live SaaS products (WhatsEase and Krosspost.ai), design on-premise LLM deployments using QLoRA finetuning and local Ollama, build custom MCP servers, and write the kind of code that doesn't quietly break six months later.

I also build independently: YubiPic is my privacy-first AI image generator that solves the face-preservation problem that GPT Image, Grok, and Midjourney still get wrong. And I've published a Google Workspace add-on (Roovy x WhatsEase) that adds payment tracking to Google Forms - a feature Google itself doesn't offer.

8+ years of fullstack experience across MERN, Python, PHP, and cloud infra. If you need AI that actually works inside your infrastructure - not just a wrapper around someone else's API - that's what I do.
