Dhruv Prajapat

I design and ship AI systems — LLM agents, retrieval pipelines, and multimodal products that hold up in production.

Currently

Building retrieval systems that reason, not just fetch — and vision models that run at the edge.

About

I'm an AI engineer who cares about the boring parts — latency, evals, drift — because that's what makes intelligent products feel effortless.

I ship LLM-powered assistants, agentic workflows, and retrieval systems that move business metrics. I like small teams, sharp problems, and prototypes that survive contact with real data.

Focus areas
  • LLM apps & retrieval
  • Agentic workflows & tools
  • Evals, guardrails & tracing
  • Serving & inference infra
