Hi, I'm Shreekant Mandvikar.
I (actually) build GenAI & Agentic AI solutions.

An enterprise GenAI search platform serving 180,000+ people at a Fortune 50 bank, built end to end — retrieval, grounding, and the trust layer underneath it. A 4-member Agentic AI team I lead, running 3 agent platforms across 5 production use cases. A career that's delivered $24M in annual savings and 100+ automation migrations. All real — receipts below.

GenAI storytelling app for kids · Personal project · 2024 – Present.

A bedtime-story generator built for actual family use, not a demo: give it a child's name, age, and interests, and it writes and illustrates a personalized story in seconds — the same engineering rigor I put into enterprise agents, aimed at a much smaller, much more honest audience.

It's the project that keeps the rest of my work grounded — every retrieval pattern, guardrail, and prompt idea gets stress-tested here first, on an audience of one very direct four-year-old critic, before it goes anywhere near production scale.

The Agentic AI Curriculum

Six-part series, taught on LinkedIn · Personal project.

A six-part series that takes builders from first principles — what an agent actually is, why it's different from a chatbot — through to production readiness: setup, tools and memory, deployment, specialized agents, and scaling.

Taught through LinkedIn, where it reached the same audience that engages with my weekly writing on agents, RAG, and LLM systems — all six parts are archived, with real numbers, on the writing page.

LifeOS

A message-driven personal life assistant · Personal project.

An agent that lives inside a message thread, not an app: text it and it reads your LinkedIn and Instagram activity, drafts things like a birthday post before you forget, and keeps a running plan for your life instead of a to-do list you never open.

It's the same agent-lifecycle pattern behind everything else I build — identity, scoped access to your accounts, a plan it updates rather than a script it replays — just pointed at a life instead of an enterprise. Full write-up on the writing page.
