Projects

DCroSS

Disaster Crowd-sourcing and Support System (DCroSS) is a project built for disaster managers to collect data during time critical disaster situations. It placed third in IITB's e-Yantra Innovation Challenge 2020-21. It uses web scraping and chatbots to aggregate data from various sources and provides a dashboard to consume this data.

Feedbacker

Feedbacker is a tool that can be used to collect, manage and display product feedbacks on landing pages. Feedbacks or reviews can be collected using a form and embedded into other sites using an iframe, and a dashboard can be used to control which feedbacks have to be displayed.

Intuition for Notion

Intuition is a browser extension for saving content to Notion. Its goal is to allow users to save web URLs and webpage content to Notion pages and databases. I started building this since the ones that already exist are limited by functionality or design. Intuition tries to match the UX of Notion to feel more intuitive.

Markerr

Markerr is a collaborative webpage annotation tool which can be used to comment on live websites. HTML elements can be tagged and text can be highlighted to discuss visual bugs or provide feedback. Markerr can eliminate feedback scattered across screenshots and multiple platforms.
