Every student having different pace of understanding,  level of prior knowledge, mindset are all taught the same way, the same thing, the same time in every classroom.  Its practically impossible for the teacher to teach 1:1. Can't there be a Digital Aristotle? 
Qubira, a chatbot we created aims to fill in the gap between students and teachers.  Qubira gives automated replies to doubts and questions asked, gives personalized recommendations, keeps track and schedules the learning cycle for every individual student. 
Integrated with our Practizo platform, and powered by Facebook Messenger API and GigaAI, Qubira allow students to chat with the system as if they would to their own teacher. 
PS: The project has been scrapped from Practizo.

BayJDO is a web-based peer-to-peer file transfer app that allows users to transfer files between devices without the need for any third-party servers. It uses WebRTC to establish a direct connection between the devices and transfer files. The app was launched in June 2020 when the Indian Government banned 59 Chinese apps, including ShareIt, Xender, etc., and got featured in multiple media outlets, including The Hindu, The New Indian Express, and more. People could use the app for free from any web browser supported device, and seamlessly transfer files between them.

HackMe is an IoT Security Awareness Game made for Cisco AJPC SecCon 2021. The game was designed to educate the audience at the virtual conference about various security vulnerabilities that could be in IoT devices, especially in duplicate and cheap quality devices, with a goal to make them choose trusted brands over cheap knock-offs. The interactive quiz-styled game shows a house, and the user can click on various IoT smart devices at house, each of which would bring up a decision question that can be risky or safe, and the player / house owner makes choices for different devices, and clicks on "hack me", and the game tells which all devices got hacked due to the security risks created by the players choice. The game was built alongside Cisco's Cybersecurity team, one of whom was my senior at college, who reached out to me to build the game for the event.

The most vulnerable part of a woman's daily comute is the last mile walk from the public transit stop to her home. We today use our phones to find out the shortest / fastest routes, but what about the safest route? 

Nidar, a PWA developed by our team tries to take on this challenge and make our streets safer, making citizens vigilant. The app uses a safeness heatmap and zoning to recommend the safest route, through data mining done on historical crime data, proximity to police stations, bars etc, and the incidents reported through the app. The app also allows to report incidences at a tap of button right from the notification bar, hassle-free and takes it up with the authorities.

The contributions to Open Source have largely been limited to some popular organizations since it has been hard for new innovative projects to gain attention, and acquire a group of interested and talented contributors.

Furthermore, even for the contributors, discovering interesting and contributable communities, and then to find workable issues and cool features to take up, is, in fact, a complicated and time-taking task, often leading many beginners to drop out of Open Source as they don't know where and how to get started.

GitLit is a web app that rates repositories and contributors through advanced algorithm which takes into consideration not only a few standard metrics like Stars, Forks, and PRs, but also accounting for factors like Activity in the Community (eg: Issue Resolution, Feature Addition), backgrounds of the contributors etc.
