Anubhab Patnaik

Hi, I am Anubhab Patnaik, a software engineer based in San Francisco, interested in math, engineering, and entrepreneurship. I work with social-media apps, distributed systems, and high-performance caching databases. GitHub

I run Luna, a tech/venture studio that builds and invests in early-stage startups. We partner with founders to solve fun problems and build consumer apps that people love. Some of Luna’s recent projects include:

  • VoiceBit, a voice-based AI food ordering system.
  • Lunr, a highly optimised AI matchmaking system.
  • Chalk, a performance-indexed, high-signal social network for athletes.
  • Mostest, an AI-powered event planner.

Previously, I worked as the founding engineer at Authentic, an ephemeral social media app, and as a research engineer building a cinematic video generation engine at h011yw00d before that. This site is for my monthly logs – my two cents on life and tech. More on my journey so far

Fond of tales and lore, I venture into narrative writing, exploring the art of storytelling. I love poetry and music, play a little guitar, indulge in photography. Besides, a big-time foodie and love to adventure and explore places. More on what I am up to .

If you’re in or around SF, building something cool, or just want to chat, feel free to reach out. Happy to chat about startups, dive into some code, or collaborate on a project.
