Hi — I'm Sanmati. I'm a builder finishing my M.S. at Northeastern — I move from idea to shipped product fast. I've owned products end-to-end: from zero-to-one as a solo founder to serving 1M+ users at unicorn-scale companies. I build fast, ship real, and own the outcome.

I founded FirstApply — a live internship intelligence platform I built solo. It scrapes 6+ job boards, scores every role against your resume using an LLM, and alerts you in under a second. Real product, real users, live in production. I also ship at hackathons — most recently Sentinel, an SMS-native incident command agent built at Matcha SF.

Sentinel  HACKATHON · SF GitHub ↗

SMS-native incident command agent — lets on-call engineers manage production incidents entirely through iMessage. Pages engineers via Photon, queries HydraDB for past similar incidents, uses Claude for AI triage, and generates exec recap videos via PixVerse. Built at Matcha Hackathon, San Francisco.

Medical Triage Tool — COVID CT Scanner Colab ↗

Radiologists face overwhelming scan volume in a pandemic. Built a triage tool that classifies chest CT scans into COVID / Pneumonia / Normal — giving clinicians a prioritized queue so highest-risk patients are seen first.
