Hello, I'm

Arunima

Product manager. Eight years across fintech, healthcare, and travel. These days I'm enjoying learning and building with AI.

Recently shipped

Five things I shipped, and how each one got built.

Alfie & Tara
2026
A pet care brand where the two dogs run quality control. Nothing gets listed until Alfie and Tara have worn it, chewed it, or slept on it. So I wrote the whole site in their voice and shaped it as a house tour, not a storefront.

Pause
2026
A voice-first journal for iOS. You talk, it writes. Most of the real work went into dictation: turning a rambling voice note into an entry that still sounds like you.

Love Doodle
2026
Doodles that land on your partner's home screen widget. I wanted it to feel artsy, so I composed every background in Canva, image by image. A love tree blooms when you keep drawing and wilts when you drift.

Instameals
2026
I kept saving cooking reels and never cooked them. Instameals takes a shared reel, pulls the caption and audio, transcribes it, runs an AI cleanup pass, and hands you a recipe card you can actually cook from.

DogFoodMe
2026
A validation tool for startup ideas. Describe what you want to build and it helps you test whether anyone wants it before you write a line of code. My first solo build, and my first project with Claude Code.

A design prototype for a built-in link manager on iOS. Save a link anywhere, find it on your shelf.
Lovable case study
I was pitching an idea of pre-built micro tools with evals included.
