Welcome.

I find where AI can save a business time, help it make more money, or stop important work from falling through the cracks — then I build an operating system that makes it happen.

Start with the problem and the goal, not the technology. Use AI only where it can create a clear benefit.

Selected Work

Four systems I designed, built, and ran end to end. Each one is running against real data, not a prototype.

I built these for my own use and I am taking on first client projects now, so the work below is the evidence rather than a client list.

Black-Edge — live SEC EDGAR filings feed with extracted insider signals and automated Telegram alerts

Live SEC EDGAR API integration with automated Telegram alerts, validated against real filings.

Services

Every engagement ends with something running in your business, not a slide deck about what could be built later.

Productized and outcome focused. Both routes start with the audit.

01

AI Opportunity Review

Where AI creates real upside in your business, and where it is a distraction. You get the highest leverage opportunities ranked by what each is worth against what it takes to build.

02

Systems That Pay for Themselves

The build that follows. Every lead answered while it is still warm, a weekly report that writes itself, decisions made on numbers that are current rather than last month. If it will not pay for itself, I will say so.

How it works

Three steps, in this order. Most AI projects fail because someone skipped straight to the third.

01

Where you are

We map the actual process, not a description of it. Where the hours go and where things fall through is usually not where people expect.

02

Where you want to be

We name the outcome in concrete terms. Hours back, leads answered, reports that write themselves, so success is something you can check rather than something you feel.

03

Close the gap with AI

I build the smallest system that gets you from one to the other, and I make failure loud so a break is visible instead of silent. If AI will not close the gap, I say so before you spend money.

Two ways in: client projects, or value based partnerships with businesses where the win is shared.

What the research says

The gains are real and repeatedly measured. Most deployments still miss them.

I am early in client work, so here is the evidence that matters more than my opinion: what measured studies report about applying AI to ordinary business tasks.

14%
More issues resolved per hour by customer support agents using an AI assistant, with the largest gains going to the least experienced staff.
NBBrynjolfsson, Li & Raymond, NBER, 2023
40%
Higher quality output on professional writing tasks, with time spent falling by roughly a third in a randomised controlled trial.
MITNoy & Zhang, MIT, Science, 2023
26%
More tasks completed by developers given an AI coding assistant, measured across three controlled field experiments.
CUICui et al., 2024
4 in 5
Companies report no material earnings impact from AI so far. The technology works. Most deployments still do not.
McKMcKinsey State of AI, 2025

That last number is the reason I lead with a review rather than a build. The gains are real and repeatedly measured, but they arrive only when the work is pointed at a process that actually costs something. Choosing correctly matters more than the model you use.

About Me

Fifteen years in medicine before I ever wrote a line of production code.

Harsha E

My name is Harsha. I trained as a physician in India, took a Master of Public Health at USC, and worked in clinical medicine, research, and public health before moving into investing and operations.

For the last few years I have been building AI systems full time. Systems that run on a schedule, handle real data, and get checked when they break. Job pipelines, regulatory filing screeners, meeting capture tools, and lead generation agents, each built because I needed the thing to exist and nobody had built it.

The useful part of the medical training is not the clinical knowledge. It is the habit of asking what happens when this fails and nobody notices. That is where most AI projects quietly die, and it is exactly where I focus.

It also means I read healthcare and clinic operations from the inside. Intake, scheduling, referrals, billing follow up, and the paperwork around all of it are workflows I have lived in, which most people building AI tools have only read about.

Tell me where the bottleneck is — what’s slowing the work, creating leakage, or limiting revenue. I’ll tell you whether AI is a practical way to remove it.
