Hi, I’m
Sumeet.

Product person. Builder. Curious optimist.

I enjoy turning complex problems into simple products — from commerce and AI at Aza to things I’m building myself.

01 / Currently building

My current builds.

Products I’m building and actively working on.

Nirmit.life

AI video creation for India.

Turn a photo and your words into lifelike videos — in your voice, your language and your style.

  • Talking avatars
  • Multiple Indian languages
  • Simple, affordable creation
  • For creators, educators and SMEs

JoshFast

AI-first customer support for modern teams.

What would customer support look like if AI wasn’t bolted on to an old ticketing system, but designed into the product from day one?

  • Conversations across channels
  • Knowledge and playbooks
  • AI routing and approvals
  • Human in the loop

02 / Notes from the workbench

My thinking,
in the open.

The decisions behind a product interest me more than the feature list. Five questions from work in progress.

Which video model survives a real use case?

I compare identity, lip sync, language, latency and cost using the same input. A polished demo clip does not settle the product choice.

02 / SUPPORT AI

When should an agent ask a person?

Turn a situation into a playbook; surface unclear decisions for the team.

03 / CATALOG AI

What does good enough mean?

Evaluate enrichment against how people shop, then review errors that matter.

Delivery operations team reviewing parcels and route information
04 / POST-ORDER

Which system changed the date?

Trace each promise update so the team can fix the actual mismatch.

05 / MARKET TEST

Can you test before scaling?

Use one-time translation and a controlled experiment to learn first.

03 / Product work

Problems I've spent time on.

Commerce, service operations and the decisions behind a better customer journey.

AZA FASHIONS / AI IN COMMERCE

Making AI useful in the daily workflow.

From support copilots and sales agents to catalog intelligence, merchandising and voice of customer, I lead work around useful decisions, evaluation and human handoffs.

AZA / DISCOVERY

Finding the right thing among thousands.

Search, filters, suggestions and colour relationships made a large catalogue easier to explore.

AZA / POST-ORDER

A delivery promise is a product decision.

Connected courier orchestration, delivery dates, cancellations and exceptions from the customer's view.

AZA / TRUST & RISK

Making COD safer without a blanket rule.

Used behaviour and risk signals to shape COD controls and partial payment options.

COD risk ~42% → ~17% · India RTO <1.5%

ONSITEGO / FIELD APP

Designing around the work on the ground.

I followed field teams across claim, pickup, repair and return, mapped handoffs and exceptions, then shaped the app around the next action each role needed.

ZEPO / COURIERS

Courier booking like comparing flights.

Built a comparison-led flow so sellers could see courier prices and services side by side, choose an option and book.

ACROSS TEAMS / LEADERSHIP

Give people the problem to own.

I mentored two PMs through ambiguous roadmaps, prototypes and experiments so they could drive the next decision.

04 / How I approach it

A few working rules.

These came from shipping, watching things break, and changing my mind.

01

Start with the awkward exception.

The edge case often reveals what the system really needs to do.

02

Make the idea testable early.

A rough prototype can settle a debate faster than a polished plan.

03

Know when AI should stop.

Build a useful handoff, an evaluation loop and a way to see why a decision was made.

05 / The path here

What’s the next harder problem worth solving?

That question has taken me across enterprise software, commerce and the systems that keep a customer promise. Fourteen years in, I’m still following it.

Zepo

Where I found product management.

Building ecommerce tools for sellers led me into logistics too, with Zepo Couriers. The operational problem was often bigger than the software screen.

Onsitego

Learning to build behind the scenes.

CRM, support, partner workflows and field operations taught me how much of a good customer experience depends on systems people never see.

Aza Fashions

Rebuilding, then scaling.

From the ecommerce platform and discovery journey to post-order experience and profitable growth, the work kept crossing team boundaries.

Now

Making AI useful in everyday work.

At Aza, I lead work on support copilots, sales agents, catalog intelligence, visual merchandising, taxonomy and voice of customer — bringing AI into operational decisions with room for human judgment.

What excites me is technology that quietly removes complexity, helps people do better work and makes a business move faster.

06 / Let's connect

Tell me the problem you're working through.

I'm open to product leadership conversations, AI product and workflow consulting, and helping PMs think through their resume or interviews.

Let's make the first version tangible.
