JAI SHUKLA — FOUNDER-OPERATOR

I TAKE BUSINESS BETS
TO SHIPPED OUTCOMES.

Biosensor scientist turned founder. I've shipped enterprise AI inside PowerPoint, built precision machines to 10µm, and taken a 5-platform agent product to stores in 5 weeks. If the blocker is below the app, I go build it.

PROJECTS

LIVE REPOS · ACTIVE COMMITS · RUST + AGENTS
RUST · 2026 — PRESENT

MacroHard — mjx-ooxml-rs

OOXML parser & renderer from scratch

Building an OOXML parser and renderer from the ground up using open standards so AI agents don't have to dump OOXML to create office documents. Designed from day one so humans and AI can collaborate on the same office files.

RUST · 2026

mjx-md-voiceover

Markdown → speech-friendly text

A Rust engine that rewrites markdown into speech-friendly text before it reaches a TTS voice — “Heading: Objective” instead of “hash hash hash Objective”. 43% less synthesis compute. Compiled to WASM and runs in the browser.

RUST · 2026

mjx-acp-agent

ACP transport for background coding agents

A Zed-inspired project that creates an ACP client-server transport over HTTP to control coding agents running in the background. Gives you the ability to orchestrate and drive multiple agent sessions from one surface.

HOW I OPERATE

BUSINESS BET → WHAT I OWNED → SHIPPED OUTCOME
01 // CURRENT BET — OPERATING ALLR (2026 — PRESENT)MY SCOPE: CLIENT · RUNTIME · GTM

I decided to own distribution end-to-end

Founder operating Allr

I took the bet that agents need more than help building a product in a silo — they need a harness that builds the business around it. I led the 5-week push from first commit to Play Store beta and I run the build cadence that keeps it shipping.

WHAT I OWNED:
The 5-platform client, the release push, and the agent runtime — 1,100+ commits in 5 weeks to a live store beta, built as a harness for shipping product plus the business around it.
02 // VENTURE OPERATOR (2024 — 2026)SLIDELYAI (YC) · VASINYA YUNAAN

I learned to ship inside constraints

Founding Engineer (SlidelyAI) · Founder (Vasinya Yunaan)

Two business moves: I unblocked enterprise revenue by shipping AI inside PowerPoint, and I turned 10,000 patents into a market story. Then I left to own destiny full-time.

MOVE 1 — UNBLOCK REVENUE:
Shipped native AI generation inside Microsoft PowerPoint — Windows engine, web app, and cloud infra I owned.
MOVE 2 — TURN DATA INTO A STORY:
Built patent intelligence over 10,000+ patents, pitched investors, and validated the market.
03 // MACHINE OWNER (2023 — 2024)UTOPIC TECH

I owned precision, not just code

Scientist — Machine Design & Motion Control

The business needed a machine that lands material on target. I designed and built it — then killed the vibration that was missing, and wrote the control software that runs it. Closed the loop to 10µm.

WHAT I OWNED:
Full machine, motion stack, and Rust operator station — 10µm closed-loop precision from mechanics to vision.
04 // LAB ORIGIN (2016 — 2023)IIT KHARAGPUR · GSoC

Where the instinct formed

Biosensor researcher · instrument maker

When the instrument I needed didn't exist, I built it — potentiostat, firmware, fabrication process. That habit never left. 5 papers, 29 citations, h-index 3.

WHAT I OWNED:
Custom instruments, embedded firmware, and lab processes from scratch — including a vacuum system rebuilt from teardown.

SELECTED OUTCOMES

FIVE TIMES I TOOK IT FROM BET TO SHIPPED
2026 — PRESENTAllr — my scope

Allr — harness for product + business

Bet: agents need more than help building a product in a silo — they need a harness that builds the business around it.
Move: I led the client, runtime, and release push.
Outcome: Play Store beta in 5 weeks, 1,100+ commits.

2025–26 · SLIDELYAI (YC)SlidelyAI — AI inside PowerPoint

AI inside PowerPoint

Bet: unblock enterprise revenue inside Office.
Move: I owned the Windows engine, web app, and infra.
Outcome: editable AI slides shipped in-product.

2023–24 · UTOPIC TECH5-axis machine I built

Precision machine that lands on target

Bet: deliver deposition that actually lands.
Move: I built the machine and its Rust control software.
Outcome: 10µm closed-loop precision.

2021–23 · IIT KHARAGPURInstrument I built

Instrument that didn't exist

Bet: run experiments with no instrument budget.
Move: I built the hardware and firmware myself.
Outcome: working lab instrument + published papers.

2026 · INVENTIONDexkitty — agents over CAD

Agents that read CAD geometry

Bet: let agents co-edit Revit without blowing context.
Move: I designed the query layer and sync engine.
Outcome: human-AI co-editing that holds up.

FOR UNCLEAR OUTCOMES WITH DEEP BLOCKERS
JAI // OPERATOR

I'm most useful when the outcome is unclear and the blocker runs deep. I'll own it from ops to metal. Currently operating Allr.
