Hi, I’m Avichal. I’m curious about trust and verifiability on the internet and decentralized protocols, and about open-weight LLMs and local-first software.
These days I’m tinkering with AI agents that can transact onchain and making videos about applications of zero-knowledge proofs.
I worked on Recall Network’s object storage blockchain, a layer 2 for Filecoin, and before that on Tableland, an offchain SQL-like database driven by onchain EVM events.
I was the fifth engineer on Blinkit’s core team (previously Grofers, acquired by Zomato) and helped launch its hyperlocal delivery marketplace. I was the third engineer on Lawyaw’s core team (acquired by Clio) and helped build its automated legal document editor.
