Who am I

Full-stack developer, based in India

I’m Smit Bharat Patil: engineer, developer, entrepreneur, and scientist by training and by disposition. My active focus is Quero, an AI-powered exam-prep platform I’m co-founding from first principles, where I own the product architecture, the technology, and the business strategy in equal measure. Before that, I led technical execution as CTO at Clipency, and I’ve since shipped production work across fintech, agency, and creator-economy platforms, all while pursuing Data Science at IIT Madras and Computer Science at KIIT.

My Work Includes

01

Product Architecture

Turning ambiguous ideas into systems that scale: data models and API design built to survive well past the first six months.

02

Full-Stack Builds

End-to-end products in Next.js and Supabase, from first commit to Vercel deploy.

03

Row-Level Security

Database access policies designed so the wrong query can't leak the wrong row.

04

Growth Infrastructure

Campaign tooling and dashboards that turn manual growth work into repeatable systems.

05

AI Integration

Deterministic logic paired with LLM-generated insight: cached, fast, and genuinely useful.

06

Technical Leadership

Product and technical strategy across founding teams, community orgs, and marketing.

Quero

The computer-based testing platform built for India's toughest entrance exams

Quero is a computer-based testing platform built for India's competitive exam ecosystem: NEET UG and PG, JEE Main and Advanced, CUET UG and PG, the state CETs, GATE, and UPSC CSE. Institutes receive a management dashboard for running multiple branches, with faculty able to author questions and assemble tests directly. Students work inside an NTA-style testing interface, draw from a free bank of official previous-year papers sourced from NTA and NBEMS, and sit AI-generated retests built from their own mistake history and weak topics. Proctoring (tab-switch detection, fullscreen enforcement) and an offline-first design that keeps functioning through poor connectivity complete the platform.

  • NTA-style computer-based testing interface across NEET, JEE, CUET, state CETs, GATE, and UPSC CSE
  • AI-generated retests built from a student's own mistake history and weak topics
  • Institute dashboards for multi-branch management and faculty-authored question banks
  • Offline-first design that keeps working through poor connectivity and syncs later
