Interfaces designed and built without the handoff.

I'm Gunal, a design engineer. I take products from the first sketch to the shipped front end, so nothing gets lost between the design file and the pull request.

Selected work

Three apps shipped, designed and built end to end, and a fourth on the way.

Hydrabit

Oct 2026

A hydration app where your organs fill with water. Designed and built entirely with Claude Code, then soft-launched in a week, review time included. Every sip fills a human organ, and a fully automated GTM system helps it stand out in a crowded habit-tracker market.

Pace

Sep 2026

A walking app that tells me how many steps to take. Built for myself in a week, as a single iPhone version. Based on my weight and timeframe, it suggests how many steps to walk each day, instead of just counting them.

BrandInvoice

Sep 2026

Branded invoices in under 20 seconds. Built in a week for MSME businesses: an invoice maker that puts their own logo, signature and brand colour on every invoice, and keeps their clients in one place.

About

Based in Chennai, working with product teams and founders across timezones.

I design the product and build it, so nothing falls through the handoff.

Most product problems hide in the gap between a design file and a browser. I work in that gap. I sketch in Figma, then move into code, where spacing, loading states and motion become real decisions instead of annotations.

Teams bring me in when they need one person to own an interface from first flow to shipped front end, from AI-native products to the design systems behind them.
