      <h1>Hey, I'm Vidyoot</h1>

      <p>
        I'm currently building <a href="https://getgranite.ai">Granite</a>, a platform that compiles screen recordings into deterministic, self-healing automations. I like building computer-use agents, shipping cool features, writing Rust code, doomscrolling Twitter, and occasionally writing blog posts.
      </p>

      <p>
        I'm also a CS student at Georgia Tech. I've spent the last few years at early-stage startups building LLM agents, search infra, and dev tools.
      </p>
