About
Hello
I'm Goutam Prusty. I spend most of my time trying to understand how technology changes businesses, markets, and the way people work.
When I encounter an interesting question, I rarely stop at reading one article. I dig deeper. I read, research, talk with AI, and connect ideas until I have a mental model I can explain. Sometimes that process becomes a research report. Sometimes it becomes software. Most of the time, it becomes both.
This website is where that work lives.
How I work
I learn by making things.
Almost every project follows the same loop:
Writing helps me organize ideas. Building tests whether those ideas hold up in the real world. Publishing creates a permanent record that future me, and hopefully others, can build on.
I trust this process more than I trust what I already know.
What I'm interested in
Most of my work sits where technology meets business. I'm particularly interested in:
Applied AI
How AI changes the way people research, build, and make decisions.
Software
Products that solve real problems with thoughtful design and simple systems.
Business & Economics
Markets, incentives, competition, and why some companies compound while others disappear.
Learning
Building systems that turn information into understanding.
These aren't separate interests to me; they are different ways of looking at the same questions.
Why this website exists
This isn't a portfolio in the traditional sense. It's a long-term archive of things I've researched, built, and learned.
I wanted one place where projects, research reports, and essays could live together, independent of algorithms and social platforms. It is a space where ideas can evolve instead of disappearing in a timeline.
If you're a recruiter, founder, or potential collaborator, I hope this site gives you a good sense of how I approach problems. If you found an article through search or a recommendation, I hope you leave with at least one useful idea.
Beyond work
I'm 23 and still early in my career, which means I spend more time asking questions than claiming expertise.
I'm optimistic about AI, fascinated by business, and convinced that curiosity compounds when you act on it.
If any of the ideas here resonate with you, or if you're working on something interesting, I'd love to hear from you.
