Background

I'm Arav Bhardwaj, a founder and engineer based out of San Francisco. I lead technical development at Basics, where we are building screen-aware macOS agents for human enablement, and I spend the rest of my time exploring dynamic non-text interfaces for agents.

At Carnegie Mellon I'm pursuing a double major in Artificial Intelligence and Statistics & Machine Learning, and I'm involved in Sigma Eta Pi, ScottyLabs, and the CMU AI Club.

Work

Focus

My work sits between agent systems and product: voice agents, multi-agent orchestration, MCP tooling, and the interfaces people use to steer them. Earlier I did ML research in computational pathology at Dartmouth-Hitchcock, training a Wasserstein GAN to generate synthetic colorectal tissue images on terabyte-scale whole-slide data.
