Founder-CTO at EasySLR · Ex-Paytm
A decade building startups. These days I work on AI in healthcare, where validity matters as much as velocity.
I'm Abhishek, Founder-CTO at EasySLR, building AI tooling for systematic literature reviews in healthcare and pharma. Previously, my company Balance was acquired by Paytm, where I led platform product and engineering teams.
I trained as an economist and computer scientist at IIT Kanpur, which still shapes how I think about incentives, systems, and what's worth working on.
