About

I'm Chaitanya Prabuddha, a CS student at BITS Pilani and an AI/ML engineer driven by the goal of replacing manual workflows with 10x better AI systems. My journey started at 16 when I hit the front page of Hacker News and wrote for freeCodeCamp, reaching 80,000+ readers. Currently, I'm building Authos, an autonomous SEO/GEO engine, and LocalYapper, an open-source local AI tool. I'm deeply obsessed with agentic systems and how they can automate the internet. I'm looking to connect with frontier AI labs and ambitious startups where I can apply my expertise in LLMs and agentic frameworks to build tools that actually matter.
