Wallt is India's most comprehensive legacy planning and digital vault platform.
As Co-founder & CTO, I am addressing a critical gap in the financial ecosystem: the fragmentation of digital wealth and the complexity of inheritance.
- 📱 Digital Asset Fragmentation: Assets are scattered across 50+ platforms (crypto exchanges, banks, lockers) with no unified view.
- 🔐 Inaccessible Credentials: Families lose access to millions in assets because credentials die with the owner.
- ⏰ Delayed Wealth Transfer: Inheritance processes in India are archaic, often taking months or years of legal battles.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| 🏦 Digital Vault | A bank-grade encrypted repository for critical documents, credentials, and financial assets. |
| 🤝 Smart Handover Protocol | A proprietary "dead man's switch" ensuring information reaches nominees only when exigency criteria are met. |
| 🔒 Zero-Knowledge Security | Architected so that even we cannot access user data—privacy is mathematical, not just a promise. |
| 👥 Smart Nominees | Granular access control allowing users to designate specific assets to specific people. |
I architected Wallt as a secure, scalable, and event-driven platform:

As a CTO, I believe in building technology that serves the business, not just technology for technology's sake.
- Product-Centric Architecture: Every line of code should solve a user problem or unlock a business opportunity.
- Scalability with Simplicity: Complexity is the enemy of execution. I architect systems that are robust enough to scale but simple enough to maintain.
- Data-Driven Decision Making: From infrastructure capacity to feature prioritisation, I rely on metrics and observability to guide technical strategy.
- Empowering Teams: I foster cultures of ownership, where engineers are encouraged to understand the "why" behind the "what".
